Re: frightened by the sounds of games

This is not an unpleasant sound, but I always found the dream sounds in STW fascinating. Especially the bit with the girl who sounds like she's trying to teach a child something but not having an easy time of it. Her acccent sounds like she's from the North West of England, very close to where I live. Always wondered what that clip is taken from.And Aaron's post about electric chairs reminded me of the electric chairs you used to get in funhouses at the fairground. It was like a mock-up of an electric chair in an execution chamber, and if you sat in it and put your arms down on the arm rests, you got a mild electric shock through both your arms that was very unpleasant, like hitting your funny bone. It was hardly the most popular thing in the funhouse, but being a child, curiosity meant you had to sit in it at least once, even though it wasn't a nice feeling.

Re: frightened by the sounds of games

would someone just read this reviewmy brother plays this game with some friends sometimes. And whenever they start its just nonstop yelling the "oh my god oh  god, no no no no!" sort of style. Sometimes those screams are accompanied by shaking, trembling, you name it. I wonder why don't we have something like this for audio games. Yes, I tend to flinch when jumping in arcade style games, but not even the gate scares me. Pretty much the only ones that sort of did scare me are the ones in packman talks, when you get inside the ghost house. I remember wanting to mute the speakers right then and there because that was totally unexpected.

Re: frightened by the sounds of games

Hi,Since you did not specifically mention audiogames, and just games, I've got some arcade stories for you, two specifically. Unfortunately, both games are gone now.I don't have a link to this specific sound, but there's a game called cosmo gang which is mechanical. HOwever, it had an attract mode where the thing whistled and then laughed at you and I was scared of that thing for a while when I was younger. However, there's a double whammy to this.Just when I thought I'd conquered it, and everything was going fine several years later and several cosmo gang sessions after, suddenly it did not work properly. It's supposed to say "we made it, we made it!" a couple of times, before ending with "goodbye" and everything stopping at the end. Well, the game got stuck in an endless loop of "we made it, we made it", with the mechanical parts moving around all over the place, and not stopping for a minute. Well eventually it stopped but it never completed it's loop, and unfortunately I don't think the game was ever fixed from that point.The second story is of a machine that I did find the correct version on YouTube.In the arcades you sometimes have these electric chair machines that just vibrate and make different sounds depending on the variant you are playing.Well the first one I ever encountered had a noise that was just... scary. You can actually hear it's demo mode in the video and then you hear someone put the coin in after a few seconds. Now, for me, this is more like nostalgia because I was able to conquer this fear but it literally took me beyond a decade, I did not conquer the electric chair types until I was 17 or so, and it was a different sound variant. By the time I'd conquered it, our local variant's sound was, and still is, broken which is a shame. In the meantime, here's a video of someone else taking it on. This particular variant is called The Shocker, although it's at a place I have still never ventured to as I'm not in the US, but maybe one day. It'll be great to experience one of these in it's full glory now, and you can bet I'd do the high power.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ8WXkFBb5o
