I am a MASSIVE fan of chip tunes on the retro systems, so what is cooler than when real musicians do their own renditions? (also see the SST thread)

First up here are some brilliant tunes from the original Streets Of Rage game:

Streets of Rage, Keep the Groovin', Round 4 (Band Cover)

Streets of Rage, Dilapidated Town, Round 2 (Band Cover)

This is bloody superb, the music from Warhawk played on guitar:

And the original to compare it too if you haven't heard it (one of the best chip tunes ever!)

Wow, that Warhawk does sound awesome!  Your stuff sounds good too, Vyothric!

This is a bloody awesome guitar rendition of one of my all time favourite pieces of video game music:
