"Do Monkeys Like Nuts?"

Are developers concentrating too much on graphics, and not enough on sound? I can't help but feel that using real music in games is a little lazy. I guess it's alright in driving games, when you might have the radio on, but surely a piece of music composed for a game would have a much greater effect.

You know on radio, they make sound effects using all sorts of props, you reckon they do othat for games too?

the music on some new games coming out like a personal favourite of mine has brilliant sound on it.
it is called Conflict : Desert storm and the man who is responsible for the sounds and stuff like that actually got them from real life stuff, so a bullet firing would be a real bullet firing.

In reply to the topic title:

I don't like nuts, no.

The sound on MGS rules, I would say that composed music is much better, especially in atmospheric games such as MGS and Silent Hill.

myst likes nuts sooooo...

*semajal prepares for beating*

um sound in games. Weeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrl i dunno

*semajal suddenly realises the slightly dirty meaning in his first comment*

your wrong, all the sounds effects come from passer's by at the time and cleaners, and monkeys prefer banannas and chips.

methinks there is one big computer somewhere in the world where there is (stored on it) EVERY type of soundeffect imagianble.. thats where every1 gets their soundeffects from....

I thought it was elephants.
