Top tien van de beste musical nummers in video games

Je ziet het zelden tot nooit, maar er zijn een handje vol games op de markt waar in je tijdens het spelen in Bollywood style getrakteerd wordt op een musical nummer. Aangezien het grote *kuch mainstream FIFA spelend kuch* publiek hier niet van op de hoogte is, heeft de website Topless Robot deze top tien gemaakt. Daar op staat toch wel één van de coolste games ooit gemaakt en die is dan ook mijn favoriet van de lijst:

9) "The Great Mighty Poo (Sloprano)," Conker's Bad Fur Day

God help me. I know it's been quite a while, but I still can't believe they made Conker's Bad Fur Day at all, let alone populate it with such gleeful filth and juvenalia. But that's what Rare did, of course, and somehow the project of making "a dirty platformer" resulted not only in a bunch of boner and alcohol jokes but also in surprisingly grandiose scenes, like this boss fight with a giant singing bowel movement. I'm not really sure how it came about, what changes this scene went through during production, or what the developers told their husbands and wives when they went home at night, but I do have a guilty affection for it. Maybe it's because the humungous crap is so jolly in its "clagginess," or maybe it's just that the song is pretty damn irresistible. The remake for Xbox Live (Reloaded) spruced up all of the graphics considerably, and makes this part in particular look positively demonic. I think maybe what bothers me the most, though, are the shudder-inducing references the GMP makes to its "chocolate starfish": can a being made of shit shit? What would that shit consist of? I mean, we do see him eat "sweet corn" and cockney dung beetles, but an anus made of shit just fucking boggles the mind, though not as much as why I'm still talking about this.
