Further proof that video games are the new film: the Hollywood Bowl is hosting a program called Video Games Live on July 6. According to the schedule listing, the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra will perform themes from a wide range of video games, including Tron, Tomb Raider, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Halo. Like the L.A. Phil's earlier performance of Final Fantasy game music,the program will incorporate video footage and laser light sequences.
For some time, the Bowl has held movie soundtrack programs and special movie screenings with live orchestra accompaniment. Perhaps we'll see game music programs become a regular season feature in the years ahead.

Wouldn't be fun for you to play the games while the LA Met played along with you? :)
