Okay. The aim of the game is to name a song that has something to do with the gameplay, themes, or content of a game.

For example:

I Collect Coins (Mercury Rev) - Super Mario Brothers.

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (AC/DC) - Jagged Alliance 2.

Stir It Up (Bob Marley) - Cooking Mama.

Pretty poor efforts there, but they serve as examples. I'm sure you lot can do better. smile.gif

Call of Ktulu (Metallica) - TFTD

Not really a fan of the band, but I found it a curiously appropriate theme song when I heard it play on the radio (or was it TV?) while playing the game with music off.
