I don't know, I have always thought that keyboards are better in bands. The sound is always like too electric compared to pianos.

Lol, i've watched your videos before without knowing!  Nice job, although I do have to agree with GaryOak, acoustic pianos just sound more natural.  Keep it up! Grin Smiley angel Cool

I haven't been arranging lately either, i've been too busy composing and putting a fan game together. I think i'll eventually get back to it (probably after B-K:N&B Comes out and i hear the soundtrack ^_^)

as for arranging i pretty much suck at it, all i can pretty much do is transcribe for the sax or the piano, that's pretty much all i do anymore and i just do it for myself. for anyone on here who plays a wind instrument, try playin the sixteenth notes in the first song of top gear, i finally got it down but its a great challenge

But as for arranging, to be honest, it is very very time consuming.  Most of us do it out of love for the game music that we grew up with and are growing up with now. 
I've created a relatively small sheet with the Leisure Suit Larry tune, and I was suprised at how time consuming it was.

It would be cool to have a similar system as those movie translate sites, but then for creating sheet music, though I don't know how that would work as sheet music is something completely different..

I mean, on one of those moviesubtitle websites, there was a system where several users could log in to the website, and each would translate a few lines of a movie. That way an entire movie was translated with less effort.

I arrange for 5 years (every type of songs..) and Ive never stopped, alas, recently, Ive reached the 100 video games arrangements. I post my arrangements here about 3 per month cuz I cant spend a lot of time here (my "real" work is in GMW). The only problem in this site is that is always very "dead"...  we need some new stuff here...
