[QUOTE="Fuseball, post: 18955, member: 539"] I'll give you that one. :) I've never much liked music on pinballs or video games, possibly because I'm a musician and computer-generated music always sounds a bit cheap to me (with the exception of BoP, where the electronic nature of it suits the theme perfectly). Mid-90s DCS sound improved that a lot, and those games sounded a lot less tinny. I know our opinion of early-SS games differs dramatically, but the sound boards that Williams put into those games could sound thunderous when turned up. As an electronic musician I'm fascinated by those games and I play them as much for getting the wildest noises out of them as the highest scores. Not seen (or heard) AC/DC yet. I'm kinda torn because I love Steve Ritchie games but don't like the band at all. Seems weird that we're celebrating a pinball's ability to play 12 songs in their entirety when mp3 playback technology has been with us for so long now... [/QUOTE]
