fallout obviously takes the cake but what other examples do you like?

Unfortunately, Iron by Woodkid isn't a classic song

Revelations still has the most badass trailer ever, though

If Radio Gaga is considered a classic song, then I like the use of it in the Michael trailer for GTAV

What do you mean by classic songs? Like classical music or original OST's?

I assume Music older than 25 years at the time of the game, or something like that.

Old songs the game gets credit for using over the original artist.

Pokemon. Sometimes they use classical songs from the old games, or remix it.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
The obvious answer is Vice City.

I neither fear, nor despise.
"Elegia" by New Order, for MGSV

I didn't know it was a classic song which made it better.

Using classic rock songs is too cliche for me

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
Destroy all Humans had a few uses of songs from the 50's, 60's, and 70's in it's sequel.

This would sorta fit a Fallout theme too, surprised no-one has jumped on this for radio mods...
