What is Your Favourite Sound Effect From Any Game?

[KingsGambit_v1legacy]

The most exciting sound effect from any game:
"MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSTER CROOOOWWWWWW"

Followed by Red Alert: C&C2 Yuri's Revenge: "Scorched Earth".

The occasional Wilhelm Scream the stormtroopers make in Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire.

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE SEVENTEEN BOAAAAMMERrrrr...

lol j/k

Hunter claws clicking from Resident Evil
the "Muh heh heh heh" of M Bison (Vega) from SFA 3

 

[The_Fuzz22]

The sound of an ammo box or similar respawning in Goldeneye multiplayer on the N64.

FDRDRDRDDDDD

Just gorgeous.

I have too many to count, but I would have to say the sound of the Quake 3/Quake Live shotgun
being fired.

The most exciting sound effect from any game:
"MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSTER CROOOOWWWWWW"

Hah, I'm not ashamed to admit I know where that quote is from

The orgasmic announcer was pretty fun too

Try this with the speakers turned up, suddenly it turns into "YOUR FOUND CARD WORKF PERFECTLY."

Now that is awesome

 

[ScrubberDucky]

I really can't think of one. I know what my LEAST favorite would be, though, the sound you get when you use the action key in HL2 and there's nothing there, or when you use the gravity gun on an unvalid target. ARGH.

 

[Layzor]

I love how the Demoman shouts "Medic".

 

[dave1004]

"STOP RIGHT THERE, CRIMINAL SCUM!"

I can't think of anything better than that. Or...Hmm...

"My blood cries out for the vengeance of my people's blood! Which can only be repaid with at least twice as much blood! Or maybe three times as much blood! Like, if you went to hell, and it was full of blood and that blood was on fire and it was raining blood! Then maybe that would be enough blood!...Then again, maybe not."

-Blood Mage, Warcraft III Frozen throne

I'm think I'll go with this.

Invookes terror and awesome.

The ZHOOP sound made when being teleported by Viki in Suikoden 2. My family still uses it as a slang term for teleporting.

A second runner up would be the level up Ding from Everquest 1. When I played it at release it was so challenging to level up that my heart still speeds up a bit when I hear that sound effect.

 

[LiberalSquirrel]

To me it's the chest openning sound from Legend of Zelda. Sure I got a few more favourite sound effects but that is the most memorable (stuck in my head).

That's my phone's ringtone whenever I get a text message. Makes me smile every time.

I have to say, the victory fanfare from Final Fantasy X always makes me feel accomplished, if that counts.

When a ghost expoldes on Halo CE, Halo 2. Love that sound

 

[zxcvbnmas]

DOW2's Lord commissars qoute ''We are the dukes of our desteny's''

 

[ElectricMegaHamstah]

The reload sound of the pulse rifle in HL2.

Immediately, two things came to mind.

1. Shun-Goku-Satsu "ping!" noise from Street Fighter

2. The sound made when finally hitting your mark during the mining minigame in Final Fantasy XIV

...I couldn't find it on video, but basically, it's a sound like a mining pick striking rock, but it's a really meaty CRNGZCK sound when you hit what you're aiming for, and it's so damn satisfying.

 

[remnant_phoenix]

The charge-up and discharge of the tesla coils in C&C:Red Alert. Closely followed by the screams of the infantry caught by them, especially attack dogs.

I came here with a different one, but now I'm changing my vote to that! Thanks for reminding me of it.

Original response: the first that come to mind are either the squelching sound that oranges make when you slice them in Fruit Ninja or the sound of a portal opening on a wall in, well, Portal of course.

Railway Rifle from Fallout 3

FOOMP! WOO WOO!

 

[breadsammich]

the "bonk" noise when you pick up cash in GTA

 

[scoopz]

The sound of shooting the rocket launcher in the original doom/doom2... And the ensuing exploded corpse and sound it makes. Classic.
