That’d have some unforgettable musical numbers.

I am guessing more in the range of -1000 to 0. GOOD LUCK!

You must pay to REMOVE things from the game, because we’ve included everything, and all of it is terrible.

I’ve decided to make games that are nothing BUT musical numbers that can be removed and replaced with gameplay for $2.99 per song removal.

They’re already doing a poor enough job in their never-ending quest to be Hollywood. I do not need Highschool Musical the RPG.

BZZT. Wrong!

those video games brave enough to include musical numbers within themselves, as they are truly the heroes of modern gaming
Nope nope nope! WRONG! Incredibly wrong!

the musical numbers within Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two are actually pretty good
Hahaha oh my God no one has ever been so wrong before!

Another great example of musical numbers within video games can be found in none other than a little gem called Boo Bunny Plague
Taking WRONGNESS to a WHOLE NEW WORLD here!

Conker’s Bad Fur Day which contains what is possibly the most famous musical number within a video game
INfamous

While there are a handful of other video games that contain musical numbers, overall, it is a relatively disappointing amount.
You are right. I’m disappointed that there are any at all!

What is your favorite musical moment in a video game, original or not?
Final Fantasy VII. All of it.

The soundtrack should be great, and so cohesive with the visuals and gameplay that the whole thing feels like a single organic entity, yes. But no, I’m not the type of player who wants a plot advanced with song and dance.
