"Why don't I like Fallout 3? I just am not getting into it. I'm about 4 hours in and I'm supposed to be looking for a radio station. I am taking my time, doing some exploring and really trying to enjoy it. While I'm playing though, all I can think about is wanting to play something else."

gamePlayList Episode 1

WORDS BY: Nic Vargus

 
gamePlayList:

 

Welcome to gamePlayList, a new feature on OXMonline in which we take a shot at merging our community's love of videogames and their love of music.

Today’s connoisseur:

Dan OXM

Favorite bands:

Van Halen, Beatles, Foo Fighters, Fountains of Wayne

 

Song to listen to…

 

…while destroying alien hordes:

“Ready to Die” by Andrew W.K.

…when the princess is kidnapped:

“Killed By a Flower” by Billy Mann. One of the best songs for pining for the girl who got away.

…after beating the final boss:

“You’re the Best Around” by Joe Esposito (yes, that montage song from The Karate Kid)

…when your sidekick dies:

Slipknot’s “People Equals Sh*t” as covered by Richard Cheese — because what could be more surreal in a moment of ultimate loss? It’s what he would have wanted.

…you wish was on GH/Rock Band:

“Little Guitars” by Van Halen. Everybody would have something interesting to do.

COMMENTS:

'Everybody would have something interesting to do.' I laughed because I saw the smart comedy in that.

My GamerTag is deltaXkila. I have too many friends on Xbox Live. I have no life.

They should do a section for each game like this.

I'm really glad to see that my favorite band of all time SLIPKNOT actually got on Dan's PlayList! I saw them last night at Mayhem Fest in Mountain View and they were AMAZING!!!!!!!!

Personally Machine Head and Lamb of God go with "...while destroying alien hordes" and "...you wish was on GH/Rock Band" But I seem to be the only gamer that likes groove metal so I stand alone.

I think that the song One by Metallica goes great with Call Of Duty 4.

The Xbox iPod icon makes me smile.

oooh. Ouch Dan. Ouch.

Richard Cheese is the business.
