Maybe more songs?

[Spardanian]

I was thinking about songs in DNF. There will be only Duke Nukem Theme Song or more songs? I think it will be great idea to add more songs to Duke Nukem. It can be Megadeth if they will accept or other band which is cool too

I've wondered if 3DRealms were going to have other tracks that gamers could associate with the Duke, or if they'll just use Grabbag in different ways. What does everyone else think?

[Spardanian]

I think that tracks from bands with which was created Grabbag will be cool. Im talking about Black Sabbath, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Pantera.

I think one band called Manowar will be cool :S.

Im just suggesting

that would be so stupid, you know most hollywood crap etc. use this kind of thing, one melody in the whole plot with different versions.

i just think of prey now, i hate these soundtracks because they get annoying, are not catchy and not variing !

get back to the old school soundtracks with more than just 1 catchy song ! bring back lee jackson in da house !

I'm pretty sure they could create more than one song that catches the mood of Duke. They don't have to play Grabbag over and over again with just some minor tweaks.

how about many different grabbags? that would pwn personally

[Spardanian]

I don't know why, but personally Grabbag is very sad to me, becouse it reminds me game which don't exists...

But i don't know why you don't like other bands songs? Try to listen to Manowar or Megadeth, Black Sabbath. Very cool bands

Sounds cool, and I think Grabbag is an important song to the Duke Nukem universe. There should be a few variations of the song in ghe game.

However, I kind of think the Grabbag to other song variation ratio should swing in favour of other songs. It could lose meaning if the song is just played over and over again, just with different moods and styles.

I can just see it now, Grabbag as:Heavy metal, soft metal, ballad, techno, rave, calypso, classical, pop, rap, reggae, hip-hop, emo, jungle style, feudal Japanese, rubber-band guitar with paint tins as drums...

That's how I feel on the matter. I hate to see a good tune thrashed out over and over, just because it's a) iconic and/or b) because the creator can't be bothered using anything else. Not that I'm against using different styles of Grabbag, but we might be missing out on making another strong Duke Nukem related theme.
