Gamers may also create their own custom cups and leagues and select the teams they wish to participate.įIFA 99 also features an elite league called the "European Dream League" in which 20 top teams from across Europe battle it out in a league format. Graphically, it is a major improvement over FIFA '98, with the inclusion of basic facial animations and different players' heights as well as certain other cosmetic features such as improved kits and emblems, although they are unlicensed. The increasing number of websites dedicated to the game and a larger number of leagues (the Malaysian league was removed, and on its stead came two new leagues: the Belgian First Division and the Portuguese Primeira Liga this came to be a problem when the owners of the rights to the Primeira Liga tried to pull the game from the shelves locally). While the indoor mode was no longer featured, the gameplay's fluidity and responsiveness was increased. Released for: Microsoft Windows, PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Mega Drive/Genesis Title song: "The Rockafeller Skank (Remix)" by Fatboy Slim Jet Grind Radio got me into Jurassic Damn that was long time ago.Cover athlete: Dennis Bergkamp (World), Kasey Keller (USA), Fabien Barthez (France), Hidetoshi Nakata (Japan) Olaf Thon (Germany) Rui Costa (Portugal) Christian Vieri (Italy) Ahn Jung-hwan (South Korea) Fernando Morientes (Spain) Jason Kreis (USA beta) ^^^ Damn man you should have done this list instead of me Nas - (this was the stepping-off point for my entire post-Eminem hip-hop collection)
Red Hot Chili Peppers ("Fight Like a Brave" was the first song I ever heard by the band) THPS 2 (the real starting point of my entire musical journey.this, and church camp):
Here's where they all stand (keep in mind that I'm listing bands that I got into specifically because of these games, not just bands I enjoyed from them): There are quite a few popular bands that I hadn't heard before games.

The Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series is the single biggest contributor to my musical journey-well over half of my music tastes today has its foundation in video games. Actually, EA Trax (they're no longer existence) arranged plenty of great soundtracks for EA Sports games. That being said, "Burnout 3: Takedown" got me into pop-punk bands. "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" has perhaps the best video game soundtrack ever when it comes to licensed tracks. Tony Hawk's Underground, Refusal by Strike Anywhere Halo 2, Blow Me away by Breaking Benjamin Most of my Tony Hawk days are represented by the following īurnout 3: Takedown, nearly every band on that sound track, but Clones by Ash Got into Morrissey (and by extension the Smiths) when Irish Blood, English Heart was on the 05 soundtrack (I think)Īlso i'm not much of a fan of brostep-style dubstep but saints row 4 had that bomb ass Vindicate track so i checked a bit more of the genre and found some ok stuff in the end Old GTA's got me into hip-hop in general so yeahįIFA soundtracks used to have some good stuff. Some of the Guitar Heroes for sure, but definitely NFS Hot Pursuit 2. Oh yeah, Def Jam definetly had some great jamz Never got into a band but I've looked up some songs, some zebrahead from THPS 2 or 3 is one that comes to mind I discovered The Flaming Lips from one of the Rock Bands a bunch of other bands too from around those years but that one especially comes to mind because the song featured on the game really blew my mind back then I got into protest the hero through nhl 09 or whatever. Even though most of them were kinda shit, they had ok songs. I remember the need for speed games, especially Most Wanted got me into a lot of bands. But yeah, basically every GTA game had great soundtracks GTA got me into a lot of stuff as well though the ones I listed are the ones I can recall easily. Tony Hawk got me into PM5k back in Pro Skater 2ĭamn I forgot about Guitar Hero, how could IĪll those early 00's madden and nba live games I think it was an SSX game, it got me into Billy Talent and 3 Inches of Blood. Iron Maiden and music in general from Guitar Hero III. Tony Hawk's games always had cool soundtracks, and when I got into metal I can't forget how good was the soundtrack of Brutal Legend. I think most of us have gotten into a band through a video game. Game: Grand Theft Auto Vice City (PlayStation 2) Song: West End Girls (Single, not on this album) Game: Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 (PlayStation 1) Game: Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 (PlayStation 1) Game: Tony Hawks Downhill Jam (PlayStation 2) Has any video game got you into a band? List is bands that I heard the first time thanks to a video game.
