Is there anyone out there who has a few songs that when you hear them you get the urge to car jack someone, go get a hooker possibly runover some people while shooting at the trail of cops chasing you? I was listening to Eddie Money's song Two Tickets To Paradise, and I felt an incredibly strong urge to put Grand Theft Auto San Andreaes in my X-Box and start playing so I did anyone else get crazy urges like this?

No. I might have positive memories of a specific gameplay moment, but that's a far cry from having the urge to bring said gameplay to life.

No. I can't listen to certain songs without thinking of certain games, but it doesn't give me an urge to go do it.

"Snuff" by slipknot is what I used to listen to when I played Gears of War

The Offspring is what I used to listen to when I played Kameo (it was the first game i got with my xbox...)

I can't listen to Snuff without thinking about Gears of War now.

Ever since GTA-Vice City I've the urge to lazily switch lanes to and fro while driving in my car and the song 'Tonight the DJ saved my life' comes up.

So far, I've succesfully resisted this urge.

Guttermouth.

I'm not a fan of punk in any case, but it literally makes me seethingly angry.

I would sometimes like to go gta on the bycyclists that are everywhere in my city but I would never really do it thats what the games are for lol

something about that song that triggers my need to speed in GTA IV.

I've never had the urge to perform violence IRL.

But, sometimes after a marathon GTA session, I find myself crossing streets without looking and thinking that if anyone hits me, I'll just steal their car...

Is that better or worse?

Not exactly the same thing but when ever i hear fire burning by sean kingston i think of fable 2 (my it was my brothers summer song wtf) now i get fits of nestalgia (i know i spelled that wrong :p )

Depends on what it is I listen to. If I am listening to amon amarth, I begin to feel filled with courage and as though I can tackle any challenge. When I listen to the exploited, I have the urge to just rebel against all.

Wow. Bad song reminds you of bad game... must hurt your brain. Does the bad game remind you of the bad song too?

It's 'nostalgia'.

I play Open Your Eyes by Guano Apes and I generally win pretty much any MW2 match I go into.

Sometimes I'll be in church and hear a hymnal and I want to play it while playing MW2.

Otherwise I listen to metallica, offspring, avenged sevenfold, or anything on the radio. Anything fast paced makes me want to play MW2, classical makes me want to play a RTS.

Drowning Pool's album Sinner and Disturbed's album The Sickness bother remind me of playing Diablo 2. It's a weird feeling.
