Soundtrack? Iron Maiden or not?

The original game spent a little money and used Iron Maiden songs. Not their best but at least some of their songs.

Is this game gonna get some love?

No, there's no Maiden in this game. There's original Electronic and Metal compositions. Mix of Dubstep, D&B, and what sounds akin to Fear Factory.

Very sad day, if you are going to make a new Carmegeddon, you need new Maiden, and they have a new album coming out soon. Someone should really call Steve Harris, since he signed off on the original music for the first game. Chances are he might do it again. At least find out the price and then try to crowd source it. I would kick in for sure.

We could always put some Maiden on in the back ground \m/

Not the same, the reason I bought the first game was because it had Iron Maiden songs. Loved the game, but that was the tipping point. Some people do not realize that Iron Maiden has a world wide following. And that inclusion of them in a video game will draw a lot of people to the game just because of that. Then once in the game, they will like the game if it is good.

Like I said already, Steve Harris sold this series a license for music once. He would do it again. Iron Maiden are not the commercial ♥♥♥♥♥♥ that KISS are, but this is a style they would and could appreciate.

So many songs by Maiden fit the theme of this game. Crowd sourcing for an official soundtrack by a name Band is not a bad idea. Judas Priest also comes to mind for appropriate soundtrack. Sammy Hagar, etc. So many good rock and metal bands of the 70's and 80's would fit this game.

Or setup the game so you could buy in game songs thru the band as micro transactions. Band make money on a per song basis, game makes money. Everyone wins. Each person can make their own song list. Pay or not pay etc.

So many ways to make this happen and make it fun.
