Aussie indie pop group Hey Geronimo were interested in promoting their latest single, "Why Don't We Do Something?," so they made this terrifying montage of iOS games acted out in real life, you see. We're not exactly sure how this happened, but we can't say we're sorry it did.

Saw this when it first popped up on Reddit, great piece of work. And my god, what a feel-good song!

Indie bands always have the best music videos.

I know all of them except the flight control one.
I...I might be endangering myself as a gamer.

The flight control one is (brace yourself) Flight Control. It was a pretty early iOS game that was successful on the charts for quite a long while, but I haven't seen it up high for a while now. It's still pretty fun, if fairly simple, and its only $1 (I think there's a free lite version too). Anyway, here's the link: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/flight-control/id306220440?mt=8

All of these games are available on android as well. These should be "Smartphone Games" Not iOS games.

I like it. I like the girl dressed up as the stewardess even more. Reminds me of the sassy Orbit gum girl.
