if you are playing on PC , why not play it on PC too ? its much easier that way.
Within Temptation is good, you should check out Therion + Ayreon + Avantasia

My laptop speakers are only so good and my surround sound is pretty good (though it only plays in stereo, still better than my laptop speakers).  Also, Dragon Age doesn't have subtitles so that would make it that much harder to hear some of the dialogue.

I'm not sure how long the timer is, I've encountered it twice.

Though now I'm a little annoyed with it because it was giving me a pretty large variety of music and then I said I liked Within Temptation and listened to just it for a while and now it's given me only stuff like them.  Don't get me wrong, I like what it's giving me, but I want to hear the other stuff too.  ;_;

what types you like? i pretty know/like everything of everything , i edited my original post to suggest some bands like WT.

and DAO have subs btw.

Whoops, forgot to answer the question:

I like more or less anything but if there's one specific thing I like it's chicks that sing good.

Like I said, since it knows I like Nightwish and Without Temptation now, it's giving me a bunch of those rock bands with female leads which is nice, but I want the variety I had the first day.

Really?  Where are they?  I didn't see them (though now I think of it I only looked under audio and not under general where they probably are).

i think on the PC version there is a "Game" option in the options menu , you can find it there.

 



well this post is going to be long but i like talking about music so if you won't mind.

you don't have to listen to all these but it would be great if you did.

here is Xandria alot of the music sounds like folklore music

Stream Of Passion they mix alot of electronic and violin with their music

For My Pain ... they combine male and female soprano voices

Epica is alot like Nightwish and WT

Leave's Eyes , she have a VERY mello voice, you might not like it but check it out anyways.

After Forever same as above.

Therion , This band started the whole "Symphonic Metal" thing and they are quite Kickass in it , witness the awesomeness of this song!

Sirenia , you can notice her accent

Theatre Of Tragedy  , they combine very angelic female voices, and very "Growling" male voices, this type of music is called "Beauty and The Beast" Within Temptation was like this on their first two LPs, btw the female vocal is Liv (Leave's Eyes) before she got fired.

Rain Fell Within , they are quite on the "Progressive" type of Metal

and finally "Ayreon" and "Avantasia"  imagine all the above being combined together with various other Metal types to form a band.

these two bands are actually not a "Band" its only various Musical icons hired by Arjen Lucassen (Ayreon , hes the guy with guitars on Stream Of Passion video) , or Tobias Sammet (Avantasia) which is called "Metal Opera" , as the albums tell a story and every singer is a character.

Note if you guess who is the female singer on this next two songs you get a cooooooooookkieeee

But like i said "Ayreon" and "Avantasia" are Opera Metal , so if you want the full experience and actually understand the storyline you should listen to the first song in the album and work your way to the last.

first suggestion is "The Human Equation" by Ayreon, its a very very atmospheric album and its a work of art that everyone should listen to from start to finish atleast once. you will be amazed



holy poop must be my longest post (in size) ever



You could just tape the left controller joystick down. So that it is constantly moving

Is Last F.M free to the xbox in the way that we don't have to pay a subscription like you would on the website?

I don't understand what's "free" about it ..



 

Not really a fix but I found what you said funny. I used to use Last.fm a whole lot then I learned about pandora and thought Pandora was A LOT better, found a whole lot of new artists I really like too. To each his own I guess.

On the website you can suscribe for $3 a month it looks like, though I don't know what that gets you other than removal of ads (which aren't bad at all) and an icon next to your user name of the site.  It make get you other things, I didn't look too deeply into it.

And thanks for all the suggestions Pallus!  I'll listen to those tonight.



This is just a guess cause I haven't used Last.FM yet, but have you tried disabling the 360 screen saver and auto shutoff? They might affect Last.FM.
