    One of the perks of my job is I get to play whatever music I want to, as long as its appropriate. I put some Eiffel 65 on my playlist, and the song My Console came up recently. The song consists of the lead singer talking about the PlayStation, mentioning games such as Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil. I was curious if any other users knew of songs with similar subject matter. It'd be cool to mesh one of my favorite hobbies with another one of my favorite hobbies in a playlist. Thanks!

    The ones I know, are not exactly about video games. But well anyway here goes.

    Here are 2 that come to mind:

    "Whatever Happened To Pong?" by Frank Black. This speaks for itself.

    [Double posting because ASSEMblergames only allows one video per post.]

    "Clay Fighter" by Lync. I'm actually not sure if this is a reference to the (admittedly terrible) videogame of the same name or not, but it seems likely. Anyway, it's not their best song, but I like it.
