Songs about video games or gaming culture

[diapered]

Rules: No OST. No covers of OST. Fox only. Final Destination.

Thread about gaming culture in music or mentions playing video games. Anything you like that is: fan made, by a major or small artist, just as long as the music is NOT meant to be a cover of a song from a soundtrack. Sampling is ok and fun parody songs encouraged!

Confession, I have never beat mega man, and so others will have to let me know if it feels as amazing as this song makes it sound. I guess I will never know that ecstasy ;_;

Again, thread does not have to be about a video game in particular. Any song you came across about gaming :P

Geez there's so many...here's a few good'ns. :)

 

[Nebulon_Galaxy]

Gotta post the GOAT

 

[Kamako]

[Octopus]

The greatest video game song;

But actually, it's Eiffel 65;

 

[Снегопад]

That is Machinae Supremacy's entire shtick.

My favorite rapper

Funny you mention Mega Man because this song counts

It isn't a cover of anything (unlike it's popular contemporaries FOE or Bad Apple), doesn't come from a game, and it's about someone being terrible at Mega Man 2 (gaming culture)

Game Over did more damage to gamers reputation than any hit-piece could ?

Love it! I can't remember what made me not able to beat mega man, maybe it WAS airman. I'll try again but I'm really bad and it will probably end the same ;_;

Dammit, I never wanted to nor thought I would ever hear those songs again. I immediately regret making this thread... Well played @Octopus

well I don't know about that, but I think the song is pretty good >_>

Do you mean like PACMAN fever, or Tom Sawyer from rush, that definitely Mashes up to Missile Command(chuck reference)? Personally I rather just listen to the actual video game music/ost.

The Protomen are a band with 2 full albums about Megaman, and they're insanely good. most music about video games really doesn't do it for me, but these two albums are honestly perfect.

if music about games is what you want, you gotta check these out.

 

[Cu-Neo]

It's technically a song about Mario Mario

It's fascinating how someone did that homebrew, only to put that song created by someone, and then Vinny found it when he tested the camera.

Also one of my favorites, SOTN by DragonForce

Sure, that counts, but I also like stuff like this

I never played LoL (which I think this is about?) but it is still a fun song. I don't know what some of the lyrics mean like "lane" or "cs", and I guess lamp post is a meme or something in this context? I just like to learn the culture, even if I don't understand it :3 I remember I liked another LoL song and had to have my brother that actually played it explain some of the lyrics for me.

Came to post protoculture, but how about this one instead

Also there's a 2 Live Crew song with the lyric "so bring your friends, ho/I'll play em like nintendo" but the rest is probably not family friendly (100% not)
