Eidos Unveils Just Cause 2: Music to Blow S**t Up By


Eidos is giving away Music To Blow S**t Up By, the official Just Cause 2 [http://www.amazon.com/Just-Cause-2-Pc/dp/B0013RC1W4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1288192501&sr=8-3] soundtrack that includes the soon-to-be-smash hit "Pimped-Up Ice Cream Truck Jingle Theme."

A lot of game soundtracks are pretty sophisticated affairs these days and quite listenable in their own right, a fact that hasn't escaped the notice of the many game publishers who now offer them for sale as stand-alone products. But Eidos [http://www.eidos.com] is doing game music fans a double-solid by not only putting together an official Just Cause 2 soundtrack, but by giving it away completely free.

With 11 tracks adding up to a total of about 14 minutes running time, it's not the longest collection of music you'll ever run into, nor is it the most focused: Songs run from the hard-driving beat of "Mile High Club" to the banana-republic pomposity of the "Panau National Anthem" and the short-but-sweet "Pimped-Up Ice Cream Truck Jingle Theme." That's not to suggest that this is a half-baked effort, however. Music To Blow S**t Up By is available as an ISO that can be burned directly to CD or as individual 320kbps MP3s, and comes with front and rear covers and even a jewelcase inlay.

This is a soundtrack every game music lover should have. It's official, it's free, it has some dude throttling some other dude while he kneels on the roof of a moving truck as something blows up in the background and an attack chopper flies overhead on the back cover: What more could you want? Get it while it's hot at justcause2.com [http://justcause2.com/articles/51641].

Hmm. It says this article does not exist. Is there a regional restriction?

Edit: Ah, nevermind, I found it at http://justcause2.com/articles/51641

I can't help but notice the correlation between this and Duke Nukem 3D's 'Music to Score By'.

Weird, the link stopped working for me too. Thanks for coming up with the alternate, I replaced the original link in the news post with yours.

Sadly, I usually turned off the music in Just Cause 2 and replaced it with my own (Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" while driving=pure awesome) so I don't think I'll be getting this.
