This is my entry in the February 2008 Roundtable, a bit different from a typical discussion or post. I’m doing this in the spirit of not having any audio experience, apart from knowing a few choice sound effects 🙂 I’m going for more recent games I know¹, so if you want some vintage, I suggest this quiz, in all its flash glory. Now on with the entertainment…
Thaaaaat’s right! Welcome to Guess the Sound!
This is your opportunity for winning fame, fortune² and accolades from the crowd, for guessing what game each game sound come from!
Make your way to round 1 to start the quiz!
(If the sounds don’t play, reloading the page or you can download the sound files in a zip archive to listen to).
¹ If you feel this is a bit PC biased, unfair, or otherwise too easy/hard, I can’t do much better since I only own PC games 🙂 and if you want to make your own, I’d love to listen to them too 😉
² Fame and fortune requires winning lottery ticket. Lottery ticket not provided.
If you enjoyed the quiz, why not read about audio in games from these educated chaps?
I’m currently myself having problems playing the sounds 😉 if anyone knows a better flash-MP3 player I can embed, it’d be welcome. It’s a bit on and off the problem – but you can grab the archive if you want. I’ll update this with a better player if anyone can suggest one.
I’ve tried 2, and I think the sheer amount of items is causing problems. Try reloading the page since I’ve put a slightly better player on if it’s causing problems.
Edit: I have broken the game up into it’s pages. It had to be done, the flash things just were randomly working. (I wish I knew a better way of doing it 🙂 ).
