Songs that should have been thread. : Fallout: New Vegas

I work for a 4 star Hilton and our lobby music is Siriusly Sinatra from Sirius Radio. So I have my laptop behind the desk and I'm playing F:NV when I get a call from a guest in need so I get up and go. As I'm walking back to the desk Johnny Guitar comes on over the sound system. I almost pooped myself.

Agreed.

Is Mafia II any good? Never played it - but I like mob games.

As for the custom soundtrack, know the feeling. I'm on the XBOX.

I didn't play it all the way, but it's pretty good given the killer soundtrack, setting and era. 2Kgames doesn't do sandbox games as well as Rockstar though so in general the Storyline is excellent, but the free roam is not as good...

@AyumiFan- My ears are bleeding. :sadvaultboy:

This song is a little older than Fallouts theme, but still, it's a good song :stare:

@Inna- Two things

Licensing Fees, and Viva Las Vegas was written in the 60s, it doesnt have that 50s or earlier feel to it in my opinion, it isnt a BAD song, it just isnt a Fallout song.

I call BS on fees.

There are what, 20 songs on the FO:NV soundtrack? Look at other games like the GTA series, they have 200.

They could have easily given us less repetition. It was just a low priority.

Anything. I'd listen to madagascar hissing roaches before I hear "big iron" one more time.

Ah, it's not so bad, and it fits the western theme. The one that's going to make me snap is "Johnny Guitar". How does this bit of drek fit in with wild west, neat old "fallout-y" tunes, New Vegas, or ANYWHERE? Yecch.

Here are a couple of good ones to fit the "Western" part. They're definitely old school, and a bit hokey, but in my opinion, they fit.

Cool Water

And Tumblin' Tumbleweeds

I can certainly imagine either of these on the pipboy as I'm exploring outside.

The CW station in San Andreas...KROSE....was mostly country heavy hitters, they even had a Hank Sr song. And there were five or six other stations each with about a dozen songs. And why on earth did they even Get Wayne Newton to DJ NV Radio and not put in at least one of his songs?!?

Demented, but very "Fallouty". I like it

200 tracks on 16 stations, according to the Wikipedia page.

I don't need that many tracks or stations, but wouldn't mind a couple different stations with 30 individual songs each.
