Marilyn Manson for the Dragon Age advertisements. Made absolutely NO sense to me, especially considering it wasn't even in the game.

Mad World from Gears of War. I've always loved the song, but when that commercial started suddenly everyone else loved it too, then promptly forgot about it.

I guess I've never paid enough attention to the -songs- in game ads to find any of them particularly memorable, annoying or not.

I don't know if it was featured in commercials, but my answer is... NOT Indestructible. What an awesome song!

The Godsmack song they used in the second Prince of Persia game (in the Sands of Time trilogy). I used to like that song, but after playing that game I developed a deep hatred for it.

The Zelda rap from the old NES commercial was awful on so many levels. Nice to know I'm not the only one who remembers that crap, Jim Halpert. For the rest of you:

Probably an unpopular opinion, but for me it's "Ain't No Rest for the Wicked," which was used in marketing for Borderlands.

I think it's the way the notes of the melody transition that makes me uncomfortable.

My god, remember when Dragon Age was using that Marilyn Manson song?

I actually like some Marilyn Manson, but, for the love of Chris, on a dragon and magic game?

Blurg.

Most annoying music to promote a video game:

Hands down: Marylin Manson's "This is the New Shit" in those Dragon Age: Origins trailers, especially when they had one or two fantastic trailers that didn't use any nu metal at all...

The FFXIII international trailer and the song by leona lewis.

It's not a bad song per se, but I feel a little strange when my friends come over and want to watch the trailer or something and it's a bunch of us guys watching gunfights and explosions and mechs and androgynous rpg characters running around on screen to.... leona lewis...

I haven't been around long enough to be annoyed by game trailer music, but Gamesradar informs me that the Ace Combat 5 trailer was accompanied by Blurry by Puddle of Mudd. Terrible.

Instead of the game, can I have just one hour with that man hunk right there?
