I got into a band called Hybrid because of a song they made in Wipeout Fusion (It was a song they remixed, but it was the best one in the game). How about you?

I love certain songs from particilar games, but how ever much I've enjoyed one particular tune, it's never made me want to get intothe bands music responsible for creating the song.. Prefer the dance scene to be honest.

Saints Row 2. Thanks to that game, I got into another awesome metal band called The Black Dahlia Murder and even started getting into Paramore, thanks to their hit, Misery Business.

Need for speed made me start listening to Avenged Sevenfold. Then I started playing drums and my listening turned into admiration

I had never heard of Iglu & Hartly until I played DiRT 2. I heard their song Violent & Young in DiRT 2 & I was hooked.

I didn't listen to much music until a few years ago, but I always loved the Tony Hawk games soundtracks. Same with Madden games...Some of the artists I heard in those games are favorites now.

Games have certainly made me aware of a few bands, like Indigo Prophecy introduced me to Theory of a Deadman, but I haven't "gotten into" a band because of a game yet.

Test Drive Unlimited opened my eyes to Metric - Gold Guns Girls and Burnout Paradise opened my eyes to Brain Failure.

Although I liked them before, the song DeLuxe by Lush in Rockband 2 made me fall in love with them anymore. They are my favorite band now and playing that song on Rockband is so much fun!

Most likely. Can't remember but most likely one or two from Guitar Hero.
