Sierra Online Logos from 1989-1999 - NintendoComplete

HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 8 июн 2014
  • A compilation of opening Sierra logo screens that appeared when loading nearly every one of the company's games through the 1990s. These were all recorded directly from an old PC running them natively (no emulation or virtual machines). The music was all directly recorded from a SoundBlaster AWE32.
    Come on, the famed super-stylized mountain graphic, buzzy bass layered with progressively higher running arpeggios until everything hits the final highest tone, embellished with the ding-dong chime bits?
    You know you remember it. And you know you smile every time you hear it :)

    For me, the Phantasmagoria one is the best. Especially now that I have some decent speakers and can really appreciate that bass sweep.

      Yeah, I always loved that one. My dad had bought some big computer speakers (at least, big for 1995) right before he bought that game, and the Sierra logo made the subwoofer shake the entire wall. It was pretty epic.

    • @NintendoComplete
      @NintendoComplete  8 лет назад

      They're great, aren't they? You should give Phantasmagoria a go. it's really easy, I remember beating it in a couple of days back when it was new with no hints. It's probably the easiest adventure Sierra ever did.

  • @commanderjnm2008
    @commanderjnm2008 5 лет назад +2

    Is it just me or does the intro at the beginning and at 2:08 resemble the sounds when Adam Sandler took a shot with his golf club in slow motion in the Happy Gilmore movie :P

  • @ProtoFalcon07
    @ProtoFalcon07 9 лет назад +4

    Absolutely love the first one, and the version at 2:08! They sound like music from Enix games on the SNES. Lol
    I also like how the Sierra Discovery Series logo looks, and the Leisure Suit Larry 6 & 7 versions are hilarious. I was only familiar with the space logo at 1:08 because of Half-Life, of course.

    • @NintendoComplete
      @NintendoComplete  9 лет назад +2

      You're version with the SNES samples is pretty damn cool, I must admit.

    I remember chuckling when I first played SQ6 as well.

For Jesus Christ God almighty and the flesh and if you believe in the gospel you are spiritually reborn into the family of God.
