Yet another pre-order incentive
cabelle:
I disabled all of the Maxis music, it got repetitive and annoyed me (especially when I was trying to sleep and I'd hear the "salsa" tracks playing over and over in my head :P). I've copied numerous mp3's of my favorite musicians & bands into the music stations; Aerosmith, Smashmouth, Collective Soul, Green Day & Good Charlotte to name just a few. I'm looking forward to having slow dancing back though so that I can more "ballads" in the music stations. My build, buy and neighborhood modes are filled with Enya, Loreena McKennitt and classical music. To get to the point, more Maxis music is not going to motivate me to preorder.
I will have to admit that I'm a weirdo and I actually like the car. I have a step-dad and two brothers who are hot rod freaks and they've been a bad influence on me (perhaps all those car shows as a kid fried my brain). The car is pretty cool to me, although I'd prefer it in other colors (like black with the typical orange flames). But as much as I like the car, I'm still not interested in preordering.
What would truly motivate me is if Maxis did as ViveElBarto suggested; to support the game as they should. Beta test the game as much as they reasonably can and release quality patches in a timely manner. But if that were to happen it would be time to bend over and kiss our rears goodbye because it would be a sure sign that the world was about to end. I fully believe that it won't be Maxis to resolve game issues, it will continue to be Twojeffs and Pescado. So I'm not touching Nightlife until they have a chance to tinker with it first.

Devo, heh heh
well, I've heard better from him then, granted it's been a decade or two, but still.
I have to say the hip hop made me giggle... but none of it would be something I'd want to hear if I wasn't playing Sims, and often not even then. The only music I actually like in the game is the higher levels of creative on the piano. (and that's not original)
witch:
sims2 music - repetitive, shrill and insistent. I have a magic junction point programme, all sims music folders are pointed/directed into one folder which holds whatever I feel like currently listening to.
The last sims music I liked was Makin' Magic and before that the New Orleans stuff - Unleashed maybe?
Tropico had the best game music ever, Space Colony ain't bad and The Neverhood had such laid back music it kind of rolled you along. :)
Zeljka:
I don't even remember the music in Tropico, must have been ok as I tend to remember things that really irritate me.
LK:
witch: Yeah, that was Unleashed.
I've never had any problems with the music, so I can't imagine where you guys are coming from. I mean, every time I play the game, I don't listen to the music and get an uncontrollable urge to slit my wrists or throw myself out of my bedroom window and into the concrete patio below. But if you do, hey, fine.
