Street Fighter II Turbo. Although, if I recall, the game's actually Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting, so maybe it's Super Street Fighter II: Turbo?

Except that I've yet to see how a close up image of a gun trigger links to the word "Crisis"

There are a few remixers on OCR and VGMix who have game soundtracks or game audio on their resumé. Virt is one (VGMix owner), and OCR judge Wingless is another. If you talk to Wingless, be ready to hear how much he hates you because now you're on the other side of the video game equation in relation to him All kidding aside, try talking to them. They may offer up some advice for you too, or share a story or two about how they got involved in that line of work.

You've seen "Goatse: The Image". Now come and see... Goatse: The Musical Find out about him as he reveals himself to you... "It's gaping and It's red. It'll get into your head. Make you my friend I'll try. Just gaze into my brown eye. As you can plainly see, someone did marry me. But little does she know I have a big asshoooooooooole! This is my own fun, stretching apart both my buns. Oh no now here she comes! 'What're you doing?' Nothing huuuuuuuuuuuun." Learn of his fears and weaknesses... "I may seem rather crude. I come off rather rude. To trash they say I aaaam akiiiiiiin. Here I am. So open. I'm worried, but I'm hopin', that you can help fiiiiiiill me iiiiiiin. Why do people find me crass, somewhat foul and vulgar too? Won't you please give me a chance to prove myself to you? Can't you look past all I'll done... just turn an eye that's blind? Can't you feel some pity, and not leave me behiiiiiiiind?" And feel the pain of his ass as the stress builds on it... "Oh my God! Am I fucked? Inside me your hands are tucked! What the hell? Fucking stop! I feel like I'm going to pop! I just really can not see, why you're doing this to me. I think that I will soon rip, because of your vice-like grip. I'm begging and I'm pleading, PLEASE STOP BEFORE I'M BLEEDING!" The life... the times... the sphincter. Goatse: The Musical Tickets go on sale June 29th.

I guess. Or they just don't know how to wait for something and be patient. How hard is it to put the money aside, and get it when it's available? $200+ is quite a chunk of change to blow because you "GOTTA HAVZ IT NOW!", especially since that cash could get you several games. Shit, I waited well over a year to get to play Return to Castle Wolfenstein on the PC I had at the time, and 13 years to finally play Curse for the MegaDrive. It's really not that tough to do.

$350 -> $500+ for a $250 system? A lot of very impatient people with too much money it seems.

Oh sure, now I find hints after I've already bruised my brain getting those three 44 now, with 1, 43 and 47 added. #35 is driving me nuts, as I'm almost certain that I own the game (or at least played it more than a few times), and the music has a style and sound that I usually link to a given system and company. But so far, nothing's clicked. So it's pretty much that one, and #2 (namely because I was sure it was from a certain series, but I've typed in all the games from that series on that system, and none were right).

Up to 41 on the second quiz (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 44, 45, 48, 49, and 50), tying my score on the first one. Numbers 1, 35, 43, and 47 are getting to me (especially 35 and 43).

Works fine in FireFox for me. Do you have No Script or anything running?

I'm up to 39 right now, with 2, 19, 22, 35, and 43 bugging me.

#39 needs to be more specific. It's answer right now is too general.

17 of 18. I missed one because I've never played a game in that franchise, so the sound effect was unknown to me.

No, they can post as often as they like. It's all about opinions, and sharing thoughts on bosses that have given you ridiculous amounts of trouble. Take for example, the final boss of the DOS version of Silpheed. It shares a slight resemblance to it's Sega CD sibling, but it's about five times harder. Lasers firing in seemingly random patterns, bullets being steadily fired that home in on where you are, and shit just going crazy on you. There's one weapon that gives you a chance to win, but it's also the narrowest weapon in the game... meaning that that have to be in spot-on alignment with the boss' weak spot, while to zig zag all over the place. Tack on a forcefield that you have to get rid of so you can actually hurt the boss while dodging all of this, and it's a hell of a fight for an old DOS game. The Sega CD version of the final boss has definite patterns that, once learned, make it quite easy to kill. The original DOS version of the final boss? Not so much.

Did some game get released yesterday?
