Welcome, Humanoid

and the same Pac dying sound.

I used to have some Qbert thingy for shutdown, but I never played Qbert enough to really get into it and to like the sounds...other than Qbert cussing.
You’re always in control of your behavior. Sometimes you just control yourself
in ways that you later wish you hadn’t

the q-bert cussing would be a good sound for critical stop and exclamation insted of the default chord sound......

off to find q-bert cussing  ;D

I have the Howard Dean scream as my shutdown sound.  I laugh out loud every time I turn off my machine.    :D

I'm laughing right now just thinking about that!  :P
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

I've got Sinistar voice clips for sound effects.

Mine has Sinistar's "I Hunger" at bootup and "Run, Coward!" at shutdown.....
