still think video games live has the best one though
i'm gonna quickly disagree and say Play! was the best I've ever seen
(considering I got to meet uematsu, mitsuda, jason hayes, marty o donnell, etc. after the show )

which one is play? Are they online? Ive only seen video games live last year and heard of a few online but thats about it?
oh, How could I forget koji kondo! ah man, good memories. I was at the chicago show. I didn't even realize them being guests was exclusive to the show. glad I went with the VIP tickets.
but back on topic, these kind of shows are amazing and I really hope they get continued support, there's so much amazing vg music out there, and it sounds so good coming from an orchestra.
I was at play toronto a couple years ago... I was slightly disappointed, I was hoping for more oldschool arrangements and they played all the new games that were sort of meh since they were already orchestrated on the game scores.
The chronotrigger suite was too short, as was the castlevania one... and I was really hoping for the FF6 opera but nope.
you know all these live shows have played final fantasy sonic, chrono trigger, castelvania, metroid, frogger, mario, but no megaman EVER. I wish just once they would do a megaman based symphony
