Yesterday came the news that Michael Jackson's private physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, had been found guilty of involuntary manslaughter for providing Jackson with an apparently irresponsible amount of prescription drugs, with unfortunate results.

Today, we spend another afternoon remembering the rad dude Jackson was. And we know no better way to do that than through video games. From in-game recreations of his signature dances to a game of futuristic Pong he shared with his sister Janet in a 1995 music video, we present fifteen video game tributes to the King of Pop.
