Re: EA Trax Returns to Madden NFL 16, Teaming Up with Spotify

I have always hated the inclusion of so much music that got in the game because EA can get paid by record labels and such. There was never any sense that the music made real sense.

I'm ready for Microsoft, Sony, and game makers to start letting us rip out own music and use that in games. I have no idea why that ceased to be a thing.

But yeah, I turn off menu music all of the time.

Nice, hopefully they put a good selection on there. No matter what songs they put they'll get burnt into my head I'm sure lol

An alternative to listen to your own music is to snap the internet. I've done that with Songza, but should try with Google Music when I get home.

Also Xbox Music was introduced. I'm sure that's the more lucrative path for Microsoft.

I can't knock EA Trax, it's helped me discover many new bands, although I wish this was an actual in-game implementation as opposed to a just a promotional thing.

It's a real shame to because it'd be a nice bit of nostalgia to have a lot of those old songs in the game, especially the Xbox/PS2 era songs. Hopefully they'll have a lot of songs. I'm still playing MVP 2005 and even though the soundtrack is pretty good, there is only like nine songs which makes them even more repetitive. I'd assume the song used in the trailer will be in.

Man, it felt like there was always at least one song from Yellowcard in Maddens 04-08, those guys were great.

OutKast, Swissbeats, and many of the other arist already had made a big name for themselves before Madden. They shouldnt be taking credit for helping launch their careers!
