Classical music has formed the bedrock of videogame soundtracks since developers could shove something vaguely Chopinesque onto a three-channel sound chip.
Philippe Vachey worked in compositions of Johann Strauss and Saint Saens among his terrifying plucked string soundtrack. Catherine had half-naked sheep men pulling blocks and climbing to the tune of Chopin's Revolutionary Etude. Hell, Grand Theft Auto 3 let you run over pedestrians while blasting a whole radio station full of classics.
