Video Games Live Announces 40 shows for 2008
A few weeks back I reading WIRED and stumbled upon the story of Video Games Live. While we’ve all heard a friends cell emitting the iconic Mario theme song, imagine a whole orchestra blasting you with the plumbers anthem.
If that sounds unreal or too good to be true, rest assured its not only true but backed up with visual aids (dudes in costumes + large screens displaying iconic characters), and coming to a city near you.
There are a total of 40 cities worldwide where Video Games Live will be taking place (including my home town of Milwaukee WI), with everything being played from Super Mario Bros, Sonic the Hedghog to Final Fantasy (details on weather it’s the whole series or one specific iteration remain sketchy), and recent hit Bioshock.
If you feel like doubling your nerdy pleasure in a two for one combo, you can catch Video Game Live at the Game developers conference & San Diego’s Comicon.
Among Video Games live International destinations are Taiwan, Germany and for a little fun south of the border, “Mexico”. If that wasn’t enough, our pals south of the border will be witnessing the concert in Bullring seating 7,000 people. Weather someone will be waving red in front of a bull to cap off the concert is anybody’s guess.
