| | Music video game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A music video game, also commonly known as a music game, rhythm action game, or rhythm game, is a type of video game where the gameplay is oriented almost entirely around the player's ability to follow a musical beat and stay with the rhythm of the game's soundtrack. | | | In a music video game, the player must press specific buttons, or activate controls on a specialized game controller, in time with the game's music. | | | Meteos includes a largely orchestral soundtrack, but the gameplay does not center on music or rhythm, so it is outside the scope of this article. |

| | I think video game music is 100 times better then the stuff we hear on modern radio (I like the oldies, but that’s it) VG developers should allow radio stations to play their songs. | | | Ze;da music is by far the best video game music, and will never cease to be. | | | Video Games Live is a concern spreading throughout the US and Canada over the course of the next month and a bit with video game music live on stage by a full orchestra. |

| | Thanks from Seattle - Video Games Live Boards |
| | It's one of my favorite video game soundtracks of all time, yet it was one of the most forgettable parts of the concert. | | | But they didn't just play old-school music; a majority of the concert was sweeping orchestral pieces from some of the most popular games of the past five years or so. | | | The music was great the non-musical portions were great, even the video guests were well presented. |

| | Slashdot is featuring an entry today about The Video Game Pianist and his skills at playing classic game music on the piano. | | | I keep hoping that Nintendo will release a book of arranged piano music full of some familiar themes from games such as Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, etc. The fan-produced scores and performances are nice enough, but they don't always capture the spirit and tone of the original compositions. | | | Then earlier in the week a movie file hit the Internet featuring an a cappella choir from Wisconsin performing other classic game music. |
