How many of y'all have music playing in the background while gaming opposed to listening to the game? Myself, I always have music going somewhere... Surprisingly, it helps me concentrate! And go...

I'm always listening to music but some games or game types I can not because I need to focus on where the Enemies are through my headset so I need the Concentration

I can agree that some game types require the "game sound" in order to fully enjoy, good example as Buffy already stated RE7. I for some reason just have to have music going as long as I am awake! I even listen to my headphones while at work lol. So that being said, what kind of music do you prefer to listen to while gaming?? Personally, I'm all over the map when it comes to a play list...from rock, hip hop, country, techno and even instrumentals. How about you?

It's always a variety with me as well, some days I listen to pop, others alternative/rock, movie soundtracks, Disney sing-alongs, usually when it gets really late and I'm trying to stay awake I put on electronic/EDM. Reading, music and gaming are the most important things in my life so usually I have a book sitting next to me that I read during pauses or deaths in game too!

For open world games, I typically find a set playlist from spotify on the PS4. I like to mix it in with the game volume. Basically I turn off the In-Game music and leave the SFX/Speech on. It gives me the authentic feel that I am getting a custom gaming experience attuned to my musical taste.
