Because the default soundtrack sucks big time.

I actually played the hell out of this game on my original Xbox, but haven't played it in years and found a cheap used copy for 360. Making a custom soundtrack was my first order of business.

espiga - July 15, 2010 (07:45 PM) You'll likely hate me for posting this as it'll consist of KPOP. Bigbang - Gara Gara GO!! (This song is actually in Japanese, but it's a Korean group!) Bigbang - Number 1 4minute - MUZIK HyunA - Change KARA - Mister Girls' Generation- Run Devil Run Outsider - Hyper Soar Son Dam Bi - dB Rider T-ara - Tic Tic Toc G-Dragon - Korean Dream G-Dragon - Heartbreaker Bi (rain) - I'm Coming (Remix) Narsha - Bbiri Bbabba I'd post more, but you're likely enough to hate all of these anyway.
