I don't think I ever played a game that used classical music. In movies it's fairly common to use Beethoven, Verdi, Chopin etc. Why is it so rare i games? Many of the old masterpieces are very powerful, great mood-setters that I think would work fine, especially in set-pieces. Or why not use more modern popuar music, like Radiohead, Metallica etc? I understand that during regular gameplay u may have to listen to the same score for hours and that wouldn't really work. I'm more thinking about "special moments". Thoughts?

Have you played Eternal Sonata? The game is actually about Chopin and features a lot of classic music throughout.
