    "Kinda silly to be listening to game music. Trent is excellent, but this is pointless." A dumb comment. This is music first, and "game music" second. And it's entertaining, so who cares what is was written for?

    This is soo soothing I only wish that in a real factory this was the background noise and not the banal sound overlayed hat the unfortunates in factories shout to each other over the pure music of the machines. Lets be sharp as a guillotine drill not dull as a flesh hammer

    Amazing! I've not heard this in years, but I I spent so many hours playing this game and listening to this music that it brings back rose tinted memories :)

    henri3000 some people like ambient music. Trent does this frequently under the NIN moniker as well, so why would you think NIN fans would find this "pointless"?
