The worst videogame music you've ever heard

Marvel vs Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes

"I'm gonna take you for a ride." Pardon? "I'm gonna take you for a ride." Oh - good stuff, where are we going? "I'm gonna take you for a ride." Yes, I got that bit, thanks. "I'm gonna take you for a ride." OK, four times is conventional, I can deal with that. "I'm gonna take you for a ride." You're not kidding, are you? "I'm gonna take you for a ride." You're testing my patience. "I'm gonna take you for a ride..." Right, time for an ass-kicking.

Maybe the character select music in Capcom's Marvel vs Capcom 2 is mind-numbingly repetitive for a reason. Perhaps the extra anger it will induce will make you fight harder once you get into the game proper. That's if you haven't switched the machine off already out of sheer annoyance. We particularly like the rather showbiz use of brass. Actually, that's a lie. Sorry to take you for a ride...
