London Philharmonic performs medley of over 20 video game songs – Video Games Reviews, Cheats. The sign of a good video game theme song is when the song is stuck in your head for hours, or even days, after you finished playing.

We’ve clearly reached a point where video game themes must be given the full respect they deserve — we’re talking Philharmonic style. That’s right, the London Philharmonic Orchestra transformed more than 20 video game songs into beautiful orchestral pieces that were performed at the Royal Festival Hall in London on Friday, September 2.
We have to admit, there are a lot of newer games in there, and we’re missing the theme songs that kept us entertained during our childhood. Via BBC, London Philharmonic. One Man Wind Waker Theme.

Robin Williams Named His Daughter After Princess Zelda. Shoebox Mario: A Side-Scrolling DIY Masterpiece. This little side-scrolling game looks like a lot of fun to play, especially if you stumble upon it lying on a table with an inviting "pull me" label. It looks like playing a normal Mario game but in a horrible nightmare featuring a controller so sticky you can’t stop running to the right.
