Necrobump, I still think is an interesting thread.

Just played Peekan, on a huge "120 games" cart. and Peekan still had the chicks chirping sample.
You're a chicken and have to resue chicks by laying eggs, I had never heard of it.

EDIT: And Boxxle 2 AKA Sokoban 2. There is a victory "yeah". I've only heard it once because I got my ass handed to me in level 2.

Sweet! I'm going to check it out right now big_smile. I've been wanting to try that myself for awhile, actually. Made a VERY feeble attempt at a C64ish wave sound in a cover I did awhile ago...

...very feeble.

Ooh, cool. And you ran it through a DMG, too big_smile awesome!

Bionic Commando: Elite Force has a bunch of vocal samples in it. Just played it and thought of this thread.

Right...  so, back to the OP, there's a library of something like 20,000 games and I have a hard time of thinking of many that used sound beyond the basic...

I think you missed the discussion. This time it wasn't the oh-so-popular "how did you start composing chip" but "why does European game music seem to favor chip arpeggios".

It was just a quick hypothesis I blurted out. Another one for public dissemination: American and Japanese composers were more likely to be musicians with a traditional background who felt that chip arps were not completely kosher. European composers were more likely to have some form of connection to the demo scene and tolerate them better. (Of course, I'm over generalizing a bit here.)

The culture around game development in Japan and Europe was entirely different in the mid-80s (and culture in general (still is)), though, and I think it makes sense for traditions and techniques to have evolved in different directions.

But arps do sound good in 60 Hz! A preference of 50 Hz arps over 60 Hz ones can't have been that universal, can it? The culture around game development in Japan and Europe was entirely different in the mid-80s (and culture in general (still is)), though, and I think it makes sense for traditions and techniques to have evolved in different directions.

Hm, that explains the lack of arps alot of the 8bit video game music.

Not really. Arps are pretty (CPU) cheap. As far as I know, per-tick arpeggios are mostly a European thing for some reason not related to technical limitations.

Theory: Europe is using PAL (50 Hz) and US of A NTSC (Never The Same Color, also 60 Hz). If we go by the theory that most per tick arps are using the VSync as a reference, it may be that European composers found that arps sounded better because of the lower frequency. Lower frequency = more time for each individual note to play, so you can hear better which note it is (without raising the chord an octave).
