Mega Man Goes Metal
(…or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Embed GoolgeVideo)
I don’t know how old this is, but it freaking rocks. I have always loved the music from Mega Man 2 (easily the best Mega Man game), but this cover is really great. It’s a (slightly) metal version of the Bubbleman theme played over a video of someone playing the level. I don’t know what it is, but for some reason I really like classic NES video game music. I’m thinking that it wouldn’t be too hard to put together a rough soundtrack of some of the great games from my childhood. I have an emulator, I have Audacity, that should be all I need I guess. However, I am very, very lazy.
I think this video came from GameCore, but I’m not sure.
Also, here is a great How To on PaulStamatiou.com about embedding Google Video. This was how I embedded the video above. I really like the way it integrates the media with the site, so be sure to check it out.
Check out minibosses.com for some more great 8-bit covers. Better quality than in that video, too.
