Because I don’t have a PS3 or 360 (yet), I haven’t had the chance to play GTA IV but I’ve heard a lot about in the media recently and I have had the chance to listen to a promo CD of the music featured in the game.
The GTA series as a whole is renowned for having consistently good tailor-made soundtracks and by the sounds of this promo, the fourth in the collection is no exception. My favourite has still got to be the theme tune from the original GTA! I even played it on my radio show a while back.. (after bleeping the swear words out obviously)
Just listening back to it now makes me want to play the classic original. Good thing it’s available for free 
The style in the fourth seems to be a lot more hip hop oriented featuring artists like Busta Rhymes and Mobb Depp which isn’t usually my thing but I’ll make an exception because they’ve picked some decent tunes. But it’s not all hip hop! Remember in the original when you hopped in a pick-up truck, the radio would be country music. There’s bound to be a wide selection, surely something to suit everyone. My favourite track on the promo is Qadir - Nickname
Of course, everyone who is playing it will be too busy playing it to care about what music is playing in the background as they speed away from the cops..
Another game series with a notable soundtrack is the Need for Speed collection. Definitely get a copy of the Most Wanted soundtrack, it’s brilliant - especially for driving music!!
