Best Video Game Song Since "Still Alive" Courtesy of Mercenaries 2
Butmac | 8:57 AM on 08.25.2008 33 comments




Not until GlaDoS serenaded us at the end of Portal did anyone imagine a song from a video game being a big hit. Sidenote: If you own any Final Fantasy soundtracks, it's time for that big life re-evaluation you knew was coming. Can I get a witness?

Anyway, this weekend as I was watching the ol' breast tube, the above commercial came on...and I fell in love. This song is awesome even if it's only 30 seconds and more of a jingle than a song. BUT STILL! It's catchy and fun and I kind of want to make a video with it.

Oh yes I di'id.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Anything is better then that fucking Still Alive song. A sledgehammer to the nutsack is better.

I hate that fucking song with the heat of a thousand suns.

Still Alive never made me want to buy Portal, since I already had it.

Also, Imma black choir freak, and that song sound very rap/choir.

Bass FTW.

I wasn't thinking much of this game til I saw that 30 second clip in HD the other day. While I usually sway away from the "next gen brown/grey" look, I might have to rent this one.
