    Video Games Orchestrated

    This is a really amazing video of a symphony using scenes from classic video games to orchestrate their music. This is one symphony I wouldnt be bored to tears at.

    Didn't recognize or know most of those, but pretty good job. :techman: :D

    There were a couple right about halfway through that looked more like cartoons than video games, though. :shrug:

    Is it sad that I recognized all those games?

    The two cartoon looking games (Dragon's Lair and Space Ace) actually were arcade games that made use of animated footage on laser disc. Actual gameplay mechanics were a bit limited though.

    The animation was done by Don Bluth and his team.
