ok well i cant make polls in this forum but the question is..

Does listening to music help your gaming skill?

yes

no

i usually listen to linkin park, breaking benjamin, and some other bands like that. sometimes it actually does help me to play some. sometimes i can do better without it because sometimes i end up singing along and getting killed.

so, does it help you? and what music do you listen to while playing?

FPS never - listening to footsteps/gunfire is important, RTS sometimes - i go through my d/l CD's and randomly pick one, action/adventure mostly - nothing important that needs listening, just put subtitles on and play music.... Unless its a horror game then definitely no. I gotta be hearing the scary sounds.

I say it improves my skill when I need to block out the outside world and focus' in on the task at hand. I usually use I-doser when I have to scrim..but I usually can't scrim cause my fps is usually low.

 

Its not the music. But the removal of mundane souinds. and the immersion of visual importants that heightens my concentration

WARNING!
Times mentioned in the above post are stated in WHUT time... which is not the time normal humans are accustomed. Whut time is relative. Today is defined as whenever Whut happens to get a bug up his ass and thinks he is gotten sorta of close to being in the mood. The actual real life timeframe for these occurences is unknown at this time. Sometimes it happens more than once in a day and during other periods it would be more like for hell to freeze over than anything actuallly getting done. Currently we are in a time frame where it would seem that there would be more of a chance of Dragon getting a girlfriend as far fetched as that might be than there would be of anything actually happening here.
