Bands you've discovered because of game soundtracks
Doug S. Machina:
I'm not even much of a reggae person, but I love The Scientist, a dub musican, after hearing his album Scientist Rids The World of Evil Vampires, the source of all the tracks from the reggae station in GTA3.
philharmonic:
not shure if this fits but I was playing arcade classics on GameCube and heard "Joystick by Des Band" and i'm like heh thats a cool tune and shure enough someone in my chatroom had it so i grabbed it off them. Also there was that commerical for the iPod that featured "Music is my hot hot sex" by Cansei de Ser Sexi, i searched and found its commonly shortened to CSS. I then looked them up on youtube and was so pleased by some of their other stuff i immedeatly went to HMV and picked up the CD.
snalin:
My first real exposure to metal was the wonderful mix of the Metallica song "One" and Starcraft-sounds. I still think it's better than the original.
It's even out on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqFpnrItUdk
