Top 30 Classic Game Tracks: #04 Tetris (GB) - Song A (Korobeiniki)

Rate this Entry
I've been lazy of late, but I figure it's about time I finished this list. Retro games often used classic music pieces as a way to keep audio production costs down, while still providing catchy tunes. I tried to keep this list to original video game compositions only, but Korobeiniki from Tetris was just impossible to omit. The music just fits the action incredibly well and makes great use of the Game Boy's limited audio capabilities. Just try playing with the sound turned off; it's a totally different experience.

    I actually didn’t even like Tetris when I was a kid, let alone its music. Now I think its one of the best games of all time. Just goes to show how things can change over time.
