Re: that hotline miami soundtrack. I'm a dumb cs:go babby, so maybe the reason is obvious but I just can't see it, but why would you pay real money for an ingame soundtrack when you could just use spotify or any given mp3 player outside of the program instead?

Probably because it's a good soundtrack and alt tabbing out of game to put on the 10 second timeout theme on your mp3 player (or even using a shortcut key to do it if you are smart) while playing a very intense match wouldn't be very convenient.

Also the default soundtrack is grating, I bought a 2.50 music kit just so I would not have to hear those rear end blastingly loud trumpets (or whatever brass instruments they are I failed band by default) in the main menu theme anymore. Yes I know you can specifically tune those out in the settings, but I grew to hate them that much.

e: You know I'm posting too drat aggressive today, I need to chill out and get the poo poo I need to do done.

listen to the previews and see if you would rather listen to these sounds instead of the in game sounds?

Ah, that is pretty bad rear end. I figured it more as a purely musical soundtrack, and as someone who just uses keyboard binds to pause and play my 3rd party music I found it a bit unnecessary as an ingame feature, but it all makes sense now.

To be honest it seemed like kind of a dumb addition when it was introduced, it just took the right soundtrack to make people want one I guess.

That Talos Principal one is incredible too. Mainly listen to the MVP sounds because that's the one that gets forced on everyone else to let them know you're the best.

I've got this one:

I pretty much refrain from betting since I don't even take the time to research what the matches even are, like the exalted 'best of 1' games that can be great to place underdog bets on. I think I won 1 out of 3 bets I ever made and won a USP stainless and a CZ Twist from a bet of a pile of unwanted common skins. Like all wagers you gotta do some research and watch the teams play otherwise you're literally leaving it all up to lady luck.

Soundtracks are awesome because you can totally go "look at me, look at me" whenever you get MVP and everyone has to suffer your choice of music.

You know, I gotta wonder if LoL inflates their viewership numbers to stay on top. They're keeping pace with the ESL viewership but there's no major events going on. This always seems to happen. If there's nothing major going on in other channels they hover around 90-100k. But then if someone busts up to 100K+ they start gaining viewers.

I want Gwar. Or Death Grips!

This is the pack I use, and I like it just fine. I guess I'm the only person in the world who thought the Hotline Miami soundtrack wasn't super great (It was pretty good, though) so I won't be getting the HM soundpack unless it's on deep discount. I only have the Insurgency one because it was super cheap.

It makes sense that LoL would be on top. LoL has more Active players than any other game by far. These numbers are a year old, but 67 million players log in to LoL on a monthly basis(27 million on a daily basis) with 7.5 million players at one time as the peak.

Compared to csgo, where the peak players at one time is just above 400k.

Plus there is probably a lot of crossover between csgo players and lol players. People can watch multiple streams at the same time.
