Listen to Anwar Shaikh's 45 hour lecture series on Capitalism. It really helps me focus.

I thought I said but i apparently didn't. I usually listen to lectures but cannot concentrate when I try t play games, hence trying to mostly find chill music with minimal or inconsequential lyrics. :)

Listen to music from a language you don't understand.

What games do you play?
There are a lot of genres. RTS, RPG, FPS or sport games might requires different ambiances?

It depends on what you're playing. ("Gaming" is such a broad, vague verb.)

When I used to play RTSs, I listened to some power metal, and when I played something like racing or fighting games I listened to pop and rock, or anything else that sounds fun.
Other than that, I don't really listen to music while playing games. The soundtrack is usually enough, and listening to any music I already know is distracting, whether there's lyrics or not.

Why do you have trouble concentrating on the game?

listen to the music in the game

If you're playing something like HOI import all the old HOI soundtracks

I should add that I only listened to other music while playing when I felt bored of the game's soundtrack. It really depends on how you're feeling in that moment.

Sometimes this applies to other series as well, if you like an earlier game's soundtrack more than the music in the one you're playing (or even if they're different series but you feel that the other game's music fits).

The music in the game obviously. Although admittedly when I get really, really good at certain games I tend to eventually turn the music off so I can focus on sound effects as audio cues.

The game's soundtrack, what sort of retarded question is this?

Don't use that term. It was always shit and unironically calling yourself that is sad beyond reproach.
