I always loved the death sound of Millipede (WAY better than Centipede). I also liked how your arrow would freeze in its tracks, mockingly showing your failure to aim. :laugh2: Bezerk has to be up there, Kick is good (especially on your last life), and Paperboy is always amusing. |

Smash TV. Particularly when you get run over by a "tank". Nothing like an eyeball flying in the air. |

Plus the way it shrivels and separates looks really weak, whereas Pac shrivels to a point of nothingness. But I would accept either portion of Millipede's death event, just not both. --- Quote from: Kevin Mullins on August 26, 2009, 09:49:27 pm --- --- Quote from: Ummon on August 26, 2009, 09:10:04 pm --- --- Quote from: Kevin Mullins on August 24, 2009, 07:23:15 pm ---Are you willing to include laser disc games in this mix ? --- End quote --- Name some.... --- End quote --- Dragons Lair or Cliffhanger. More comical than dramatic..... but entertaining none the less. --- End quote --- They'e a little out of the vein because one can, if they can, draw anything, whereas the games of the golden age had only so much capability....but yeah, DL cos it's outlandish. Cliffhanger.....maybe some of the really later scenes. I watched a vid of that game, and the decent scenes seem to be much later, and the rest of what could've been cool edited out for american audiences. --- Quote from: wp34 on August 26, 2009, 10:40:03 pm ---Smash TV.

Similar to the DL comment above, because by the late 80s so much more was possible. |
