Sure, I bet your ability to pound out Final Fantasy's Prelude on 88 keys is an avid display of skill and sensitivity for the ladies, but in their heart of hearts, women don't want someone who can drum up alligator tears while gettin' romantic on an instrument as weak as a piano. When real men kick out the jams, they do so wielding the might of Zeus via the marriage of technical wizardry and geekish intention -- on a Goddamn Tesla coil.
We've seen all sorts of themes from all sorts of games played on all sorts of instruments, but these lads have put a stop to the musical arms race with but two videos. If I had my way -- and I will, once my glorious coup is staged -- we'd toss every instrument on this Earth into a raging funeral pyre and play our victory march on the only remaining (legal) musical instrument: the Tesla coil.
The sheer awe is just one benefit to the revolution, but there are others. Even a Phil Collins concert would be amped to eleven by such an instrument -- will this rendition of In The Air Tonight be his last? It might be, once we tether ol' Phil to the coil with ten feet of steel drag chain! Tickets could sell for hundreds of dollars, and hell, we could even donate a buck or two of each ticket price for funeral costs. It's win-win, baby!
Oh, right -- games. So, uh, the Super Mario theme, right? Not only on your cell phone anymore, heh heh -- my God, check out those friggin' arcs!
I give up. Hit the jump for the Tetris theme, too.
