The London Philharmonic Orchestra has recorded 17 covers of famous songs from gaming. They're going to release them on November 6th in a compilation called The Greatest Video Game Music 2.
The album features tracks from both old and new games. Chrono Trigger's main theme and "One-Winged Angel" from Final Fantasy 7 are sure to be the biggest crowd-pleasers. However, I'm intrigued by the mention of a "Still Alive" cover.
Here's the full list of songs covered by the orchestra:
Assassins Creed: Revelations Main Theme
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Far Horizons
The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker Dragon Roost Island
Final Fantasy VII One-Winged Angel
Mass Effect 3 A Future for the Krogan/An End Once And For All
Halo Never Forget/Peril
Sonic the Hedgehog A Symphonic Suite
Chrono Trigger Main Theme
Luigis Mansion Main Theme
Kingdom Hearts Fate of the Unknown
Super Metroid A Symphonic Poem
Diablo III Overture
Batman: Arkham City Main Theme

The album will be available through iTunes for $7.99. However, you can download "Never Forget/Peril" from Halo for free through the album's website. Furthermore, you can check out three samples from the album below.
