Posted by Winifred Phillips on

Happy Independence Day to all my fellow Americans!  This is a day to celebrate all the best, most awesome things we enjoy about being Americans – and that includes our love of video games!  So to celebrate, I’ve gathered together some of the top patriotic songs of the USA as they appeared in popular game soundtracks.  Enjoy!
