Much like the gaming humour thread , There are alot of creative people on the internet that do some awesome gaming covers that should be noticed.
For instance this acapella cover of Megaman x

I think this guy has just become my favourite thing about the internet. His Guile Theme is phenomenal too!

In other news, Brentalfloss still kicks ALL the ass:

I remember absolutely loving this track back when Duke Nukem: time To Kill came out. Looking back now though, it's far from great

Also this one from Loaded was a favourite of mine back in the day

It's soppy celine dion level pop with lyrics that seem to have been put through babelfish and were probably awful to begin with.

This wind waker cover is fantastic. He also slots in a bit of other Zelda tunes throughout the song.

Hehe :P
