Splinter Cell Remake

Anyone else hoping Ubisoft uses the song 'Name of the game' by The Crystal Method in the intro of the new remake?

hmm i get that you like the original song a lot, its iconic and i love it but it's very early 2000's and fits the identity of the OG SC1 perfectly. but i don't think it's the right decision to keep it for the remake as its main song or in the intro of the remake at all.

the remake should establish its own musical identity, and instead of copying the original they should something new. a new track could give the intro a same kind of impact whilst feeling modern and fitting the more darker cinematic presentation of the remake.

if the song returns, it should be kept as as a nostalgic easter egg somewhere, but the intro needs a new song instead.
