Review
This is the first orchestral version of one of my compositions and it really comes alive. It has such a great depth and a majestic touch, and it was very emotional for me when I heard it the first time. I love it! --Ari Pulkkinen, 'Angry Birds' composer

Listen to the samples, you will know immediately if this is for you. The real standouts are the classic 8-bit tunes, Zelda, Mario, and Tetris, but the rest are fun too. The bonus Dead Space track is very spooky (wait, there was music in Dead Space? I just remember screaming and metal clanking sounds.)
I'd love to see the London Philharmonic do an album of CLASSIC video game music someday, just focusing on great 8-bit tunes; Castlevania, Megaman, Metroid, Ghosts n' Goblins etc.

The tracks on this album are from an extremely diverse library of games. In lieu of staying to a complete classical theme, elements such as synth and a drum set (adding snare and hi-hat noises) are utilized to give some songs a more modern classical feel. The arrangement of Angry Bird's theme, the Super Mario theme, and the Uncharted theme are worth the $3 by themselves. Really.
All in all, an amazing collection. There will be people griping about whats missing, such as a track from Shadow of the Colossus in my opinion, but that just gives you a chance to check out buying that album on its own!

The Tetris arrangement is worth $3 all by itself. Don't even think about it; just buy it. Unless you really need those $3 for an order of french fries today.

OK so if you're as hardcore about video game music as I am, there isn't anything too new about the soundtrack. However, the orchestration is marvelously done. Read more

Fantastic collection
Some tracks are certainly stronger than others, but overall this is a very well orchestrated compilation. Easily worth the $2 I spent.

Greatest Video Game Music... More like Pop-culture Video Game Music.
Whoever picked the lineup for this album did not do any research what so ever.
The music is good, I'll give it that. The London Philharmonic did a great job. Read more
