The vast number of games already use up the opportunity to use the Dolby surround sound option for their games.
I've only seen a small number of games that support this feature and they were Perfect Dark and Donkey Kong 64 but they didn' use the feature to full effect.

They just use it for hearing any footsteps behind you, it's not too bad but i would expect more games that feature Dolby to use the option to it's power.
Pc games although they use Dolby sometimes don't really seriously use that option for PC's. The power and size of the Speakers aren't capable of it.

They need to fully recognise that maybe with Dolby they could make a good partnership with them and maybe we can make this happen. It is something special if you could be able to hear your guy breathing, or the waves crashing onto shore or the door crashing behind. These such games like Final Fantasy, Zelda, Resident Evil and Metal Gear would benifit with a Dolby feature in it to make the game even more atmospheric and tense.

That company that FActor 5 is the lead company for the GC's sounds there sound on Rogue Squadron was very good, hopefully they will carry on their good work.

On the N64, anyway...

The Gamecube supports Dolby Pro Logic, if anyone would like to explain that?

It is rare that are using the benifits of Dobly. I have not seen any others apart from rare

Jet Force Gemini used it very well, the music in it is superb. Emmensely enjoable game, I recommend to anyone.
