Frak! - BBC Micro - great music
I have never seen anyone else ever refer to that game, but remember it fondly.
Frak! - BBC Micro - great music
I was thinking about this earlier. Despite playing the original on the bbc the Amiga port was where I spent the vast majority of my hundreds of hrs gameplay, and even now certain sounds are etched into my head from the game. There are others but, I think the 3 sounds which gave the biggest lasting impression was the docking sound, the fuel scoop sound, and last but not least the ecm.
(I am not talking big things such as music, obviously the BD in elite is as iconic as they come)
What - if any - little effects in games from yesteryear have left a lasting impression on you?
And do you think in 30 years people (may be me) will be saying the exact same thing about bits of ED?
I loved the music in Star Control II.
The installation for Command and Conquer - it was the first time I'd ever seen an installation be 'themed' with the game. Impressive.
Those huge beam weapon sounds in Freespace 2.
The ability to see campaign medals on your uniform in XWing.

Oh yes, completing "Demon's Winter" RPG game on the Amiga. There was something brilliant about it. Yes, there is Ultima and a whole raft of others, but this is the one that still has me pining to return to it. Where is UAE ???![]()
