Re: New Front End Music

I've actually switched off the menu music completely. I've never heard of any of the artists on the Soundtrack, and the original game music has got far too repetitive and boring. Since I play this game almost exclusively for league racing, that means I'm often say on the lobby screen for about 10-15 minutes listening to the same theme that's been used for the last 7 years....

Just to note, when I think of F1 Game Music, the first thing that comes to mind is the Ian Brown F.E.A.R intro music from F1 2010... I guarantee any player from that era will get nostalgic chills when they hear that these days!! The Xbox 360 era game themes were great!

@SDGMatt I know. Back when Codemasters was in charge of development, everything was better.

And they used to be so creative with the intro videos. I remember F1 2012, in which the intro was basically a recap of the real season so far, accompanied by the best intro song for an F1 game, What a Life by Noel Gallagher. ❤️

When the Halo era began in 2018, the intro song was the same every year, and in 2021, EA SPORTS wanted pinpoint perfect realism, which is why they use the generic and boring TV intro since then.
