Classic video game deaths

A video compilation of deaths from old school video games, from Pong and Space Invaders right on up to Afterburner.

The music is a MIDI version of Mad World, originally done by Tears for Fears but probably best known in the gaming community as the music in the most poignant trailer ever done for a violent third-person shooter game.
