This thread is going to be awesome or fail miserably.

Yesterday I watched the movie Hacked. In it Angelina Jolie and that lead dude played a game that looked like Cyberspeed for Playstation. :wha?: So naturally I said "FUCK THAT LOOKS LIKE CYBERSPEED." And what I remember more than actually playing the game was putting the game into a CD player and listening to the dope techno soundtrack. I found my old Cyberspeed disc and put it in my car's stereo and blasted the most exciting techno tracks that were probably made by an office worker on the 34th floor of a company building that was trying not to commit suicide by making fantastically futuristic space race music that makes Eiffel 65 look like childs play.

:joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy: :joy:

So what PS games did you pop into your CD player? Other ones I particularly remember are the Tekken games and I think Street Sk8er 2.

Used to listen to Twisted Metal 4 a lot. Also, the best part was that all of the characters' catch phrases were tracks as well. I need to find those and sample them for a song or something.

:lol: yeah, Cool Boarders. I wonder if the Tony Hawk games work. I already listened to that "Superman" song a million times ingame.

In the old GTA games (before GTA3), when you get to the point where you're driving around, you can replace the disk with a music CD and the songs will come through the game's radio.

Yeah honestly Wipeout XL really opened up my musical perspective back then. Shit introduced me to Future Sound of London.

By the time PSX hit I was already putting a bunch of TurboGrafx games into my regular CD player. Thank you Ys and Lords of Thunder.

Fuck, I didn't know Cool Boarders worked, I'll have to try Cool Boarders 4. And I don't think the THPS games worked. :(

Twisted Metal 3 played a lot of Rob Zombie songs in a CD player.

Did you ever get high and play Cool Boarders while looking at the screen upside-down. For me, that was about 75% of high school.

My GPA took a nosedive after my friend started coming over after school every day so we could take turns playing the Matt Hoffman's Pro BMX demo.
It was just Tony Hawk with bikes.
