Gone are the days of soundtracks being limited to television and film. Artists have found another venue for their music:
Video Game soundtracks. Game music has advanced a lot since the days of simple beeps heard in games played on old console systems like
Coleco Vision and
Atari. These days, mainstream
artists such as Blink 182, Kid Rock, Chemical Brothers and Radiohead are lending their musical talents to enhance video games on your XBox, PS2 or GameCube. Gamers are even snatching up CD soundtracks featuring their favorite video game orchestral scores. G4TechTV's
XPlay explores the history of
the best and
the worst video game music.
