        But you end up getting the +1 anyways.

            I remember playing Arena (Elder Scrolls 1) back in ... 1992? somewhere about then, and my sound card didn't work properly for the soundtrack - so I ran the "oldies" radio station all summer long while playing the game start to finish. (This was like 8th grade or somewhat). Now I can't listen to a song from the period 1965-1979 (period the station played during the day) without thinking of Arena ... and it was an eerily cooperative soundtrack sometimes, too ...

                I nominate whatever I happen to be listening to at the time. Sure, it generally isn't appropriate to the game I'm playing, but then neither are most games actual soundtracks and at least this way I enjoy the music.

                    I always listen to the in-game music, unless it is too distracting.

                        While the game's own music is usually the best, there are a few games that I associate with particular songs;

                        Dark Age of Camelot: The Immigrant Song - Mainly because I always played Midgard, plus the kittens in that flash animation remind me of berzerkers in bear form.

                        Shadowbane: Dragonaut and Where Is My Mind - mainly because of the people I played with.

                            music is distracting for most games. I won't have music for a RPG, as I want to feel like I'm in the world. And modern music takes me out of that world.

                            I mostly listen to music when playing games like civ2, civ3, and smac.
