The worst videogame music you've ever heard

Pro Evolution Soccer 6

Well someone got a synthesiser for Christmas. And a Casio mini keyboard too by the sound of it. Pro Evolution Soccer is brilliant to play, but the sound is always obscured with a few coughs whenever we're showing it to our friends. The commentary is still brilliantly awful, but the music... oh, the music. The "color of love" song (or at least that's what it sounds like they're singing - it could be "gravel above") - in the option screens at least has a big, stompy "football" crowd feel to it, but the half-time music is just... laughable.

They say that give enough chimps enough typewriters and they could re-write the entire Shakespeare collection. By that token, you could give one chimp one copy of Pro Tools and a synthesiser and probably end up with more fitting music for PES.
