I own the deluxe edition of the game for PS3, and a while ago, I tried to play some of the music that I had put into a playlist on the system, but the game didn't allow it. Was this just because I was at a part where that couldn't be done, or does RE5 not allow you to play your own music during gameplay?

I don't think the PS3 allows background music. I may be wrong.

To be honest, I can't stand playing music while playing a game. I won't play with people who do it.

I'm with Nite here, I never use my own music while I'm playing games, the in-game soundtracks are fine for me.

I just think the in-game sounds are too important to cover up.

I try to keep the music to a reasonable level so that non-musical sound effects aren't canceled out, but I've found out that if done right, adding your music can give the game a whole new dimension.

I just don't like it. I play single-player games most of the time and I think that music in a game is very important. If I use my own music, it kinda ruins the atmosphere of the game for me.

I understand that some people like it. I don't think it's dumb to do or anything. And it also depends on the game and situation. Having it as an option is always nice for everyone.

RE5 doesn't support custom soundtracks.

I usually rock out to some Tiny Tim while playing God of War.

I was listening to Initial R while playing as Rebecca. It's so fitting.
