Cannon Fodder theme played on Game Controllers

You can see more of our videos at http://www.pressplayontape.com... For the Copenhagen Retro Concert 2005 we wrote a program that made it possible for us to use game controllers as music instruments and then we played the old amiga classic Cannon Fodder together with the composer, Jon Hare.

I agree with your that the PS1/2/3 controller is awful. It lies well in the hands, but the dpad, oh god the dpad. It's complete rubbish! You can hardly make diagonal movements and it painfully hurts your thumb after a few minutes. Horrible.My favourite controller to this day yould be the JP Saturn one. It's just perfect.The GC and Xbox 360 controllers are excellent for 3D games, but they also both have troubles wit their dpads.

best controller being the PS? hecks no, its too small, the (non-original aka the one that isnt the size of a beach plane) Xbox controller is definately the best.Great band tho! They are geniuses!

So THAT'S why Jon hare is credited as "Vera Lynn" in the opening sequence!(Uhm... Jon Hare posing as a female... that raises even more questions about what he was doing with that joystick :-D )
