So everyone has turned on a tv and seen a video game commercial. Do you remember the song that was playing during the commercial? Do you have it on your computer or iPod?

Here are a few of the songs that I enjoyed for commercials that I have or have yet to get on my iPod.

"Oh No You Didn't"-from Mercenaries 2. A funny song that works with the commercial, but the game was lacking in the hype generated.

"In for the Kill" La Roux-from Bayonetta. Old song that worked perfectly of the dance movements in the game and commercial.

"You Think I Ain't Worth a Dollar, But I Feel Like a Millionaire" Queens of the Stone Age-from Bad Company 2. It takes some time for the song to start up, but once it does it makes the commercial.

"Train to Miami" Steel Pole Bath Tub; "Grounds for Divorce" Elbow; "Electric Worry" Clutch -from Left 4 Dead/2. They all work in their own way. Steel Pole is the song about the 4 players, Elbow is the sitting in the bar like Shaun of the Dead and Clutch is the "Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang". They all made the game seem funny yet exciting.

"One" Mastodon-Army of Two. Yea the song is not on any of their CDs, but it is a great remake of the Three Dog Night song, and makes the game more exciting to have a second player beside you.

"Ain't No Sunshine When She's Gone" Bill Withers-from Dante's Inferno. Played during the Super Bowl it was a great metaphor for a game that takes in a dark world of Hell.

"I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire" The Ink Spots-from Fallout 3. A very old band that is from the 30s or 40s. But the song gives the time of the 50s seem to fit in the game that takes place in 2777.

"Young Men Dead" The Black Angels-from Fable 3. A Perfect song for a game that is built around starting a revolution in the first half.

"Snake Eater" Cynthia Harrell-from Metal Gear Solid 3:Snake Eater. Makes you feel like your playing a great Bond game that is not Bond. Works both in the commerical and in the game. Really helps as you climb a very boring ladder.

"How it Ends" DeVotchka-Gears of War 2. Makes you think it may just be over in the end for Delta. But it makes you think of if it was to end, how would/should it end.

"Far Away" Jose Gonzales-from Red Dead Redemption. The only game not used in the commercial but I wanted to give it credit anyway. Once you first ride the horse in Mexico the song starts up and builts. If you go to the farther location you get to hear more of the song to the point of hearing the whole song. It works by making you feel far away from finishing the journey(sorry for the bad pun).

I know of more songs that work, but I can't get to them right now, but later on after the holiday I will get to them.
