Leave My Ears Alone 8! Terrible Gaming Sounds And Music! 

Fun Fact: The voice lines for Sonic and Shadow in their final battle against each other got lost during the audio making. Shadow's line was: This is the Ultimate Power Sonic's line was: I'll use your power, CHAOS CONTROL Enjoy your needed relief 👍

Glad to know I'm not the only one who went crazy trying to figure out what Shadow was saying there. Almost as bad is when you fight Sonic instead and he says "I'll use your-" Before shouting 'Chaos Control!' Always felt something was missing there too.

Shadow's deliberately not finishing his sentence because he keeps expecting Sonic to cut him off with a yell of "ILLMAKEYOUEATTHOSEWORDS!"

Shadow is actually saying, “This is the *ULTIMATE* power…” Not sure why Shadow whispers the last word.

I can't think of Tomba 2 without the "I would really prefer if you'd be quiet", guy.

This is the ultimate of all time

Don't give up doing all of those series, you got a lot of fans that will gladly watch it no matter the time, from CBE, through this, all the way to miscellanous mire of madness

I could never figure out how to replicate it, but Sonic DID finish his version of the line for me at least once. "I'll use your technique! Chaos Control!!" That game's got multiple instances of voice lines being cut, so I tried to hear Shadow's line too, but never could...

Finally that horrible beeping music was included Edit:i fixed the grammar errors

I was bracing myself for whatever was gonna come up in the intro and I still felt pain

Here's an annoying sound that I deal with constantly on RU-vid: the music used for those "RU-vid surveys". It also tries to come off as "wholesome" on top of already being one of the most annoying types of ads on this site. Thunderbolt's sound effect constantly looping sounds like endless applause to me.

I always assumed he meant to just say "This is the ultimate". That just kinda sounds like what a total badass who doesn't follow no rules would say. It wasn't until later when I hear it was a botched line.

I wonder if the ‘Thunder Glitch’ stacks?? I don’t have Gen 3 so I can’t find out myself, and I don’t want to.

Shadow does actually say "power" at the end, it's just really quiet. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Rishq3NqYuE.html

Funnily enough, If you ever played the randomizer you probably get Sonic and Shadows final battle lines at some point. Weirdly enough, Sonic's line for Chaos Control is split into two different audio tracks. "I use your technique" and "Chaos Control!" Are two separate recorded lines that got spliced into one. I think they wanted Ryan Drummond to really emphasize the shout when doing the "Chaos Control" line and that's why they were separated even though these two tracks are one in the actual game.

The perfect segment for this series would be Altered Beast on the Genesis. When you get to the boss at the end of the first stage and the evil guy says "Welcome to your doom!" Suddenly as the boss starts appearing in a cloud of dust, you get one of the most painfully laughable ear screeching explosion like sound effects played at +20 decibels to the point where it sounds like your entire house is falling down around you. It was always an inside joke between me and my brother to see how everyone reacted to it 😂.

I got so annoyed with Tomba 2’s talking theme I had to put the volume so low every time I talked to someone

Whoever said Path of Radiance voice acting sucks, obviously never heard other bad voice acting in video games.

Man, the fight between Sonic and Shadow might seem easy after knowing how, but as a kid, that took forever. Also, I’m kind of surprised Chuggaaconroy never mentioned the Thunderbolt glitch when he was covering those games. At least I don’t remember him mentioning it, but those let’s plays are way old by now

That "Thunderbolt never shuts up" bug could be a PAL issue.

You know how people used Dragon Quest as an example for why Pokemon Gen IX should have voice acting. Let's just say they dropped the ball on Dragon Quest Treasures. Due to the nature of the game, monsters in your team notify you whenever they detect treasure, common or rare. Due to the fact that you can only bring up to a certain amount of treasures before you have to put them in your base, you probably won't be interested in common chests unless you're going for 100%. That sure won't stop your party members from making lame puns to point out the presence of one, even if your chest inventory is full. It got to the point that I wanted to get some other monster to stop listening to the same puns, but the game has a shockingly low number of recruitable monsters for a game that started out as the next DQ Monsters entry.

I've never encountered that sound glitch in Gen 3.

Sometimes later after your Taz-Mania video, I actually had to re-listen to the original jungle song to remind myself of how it "actually" sounded because it was like the screeching corrupted my memory of it trying to match up the sounds. XD So it barely resembles original on top of it being plain bad. I too couldn't hear what Shadow's last word was for the longest time, lol! But I'm almost positive someone figured out he said "ᵖᵒʷᵉʳ" at the end. Why he is so much quieter after ULTIMATE is beyond me though and sounds awkward. It was funny seeing you look in the options to try and turn off music because I tried that too because I was so curious. Even with headphones on it's hard to hear. I never heard any of Tomba 2's stuff before today, but I can definitely see why that song gets grating! No structure and it being heard so often is a killer. The Pokemon Thunderbolt bug I always saved and quit when I could to reset that because I never heard about that wiping your save. So I guess back when the rumors floated around I could have accidentally confirmed it doesn't wipe your save. Which is good as imagine losing everything you did in a 30+ hour game just from using Thunderbolt. So maybe I never seen the rumor until now because most figured it out like I did by just saving and quitting. I didn't know getting back to the title screen is what fixes it besides powering off though. So that means if it occurs during the champion battle and you wait out the credits, that would be the only way one would learn that under normal (non-experimenting) gameplay. VS Wallace, you are likely TO use a Thunderbolt given his water critters as well. So chances are some got to experience that fix in real time. I couldn't find why the bug randomly occurs at all either. Thus it's likely no one figured it out yet and may be a mystery for a while longer. But if there's one sound in Pokemon that I wish didn't exist because it bugs me to no end... You probably guessed it, but it's the low health beeping. It's ENDLESS and even messed with the music and sounds in earlier games. Speedrunners use it for a faster strat called "Red bar" it's so disruptive. Nothing encourages me to switch or heal more than that beeping. I'll even hope they just outright KO my Pokemon to get a free switch and kill the beeps to boot. They tried to stylize it it Black/White by making a whole new song around it, but I hate the beeping so much from years of it murdering my ears that I can't even find the remix to be a fun throwback as it was intended to be as I think the beeping ruins the whole thing. If the low health song had no beeps it would be WAY better though.

5:52 - This is exactly my complaint with voice acting in video games. There's something to be said for letting your imagination take control. There should at least be an option to turn it off. 0r switch to actually good voice acting, at least. And now I'm reminded of this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8VoWEP7XVwE.html

To be entirely honest, SA2 wouldnt be the same game if it wasnt for the slightly scuffed localizing and audio mixing, I mean without it we wouldnt have the iconic moment where Sonic cuts Shadow off during their confrontation in Green Forrest

Everytime I hear that song from Tomba 2, I immediately think of these words: "I would prefer if you be quiet" Funny thing is, now I actually do think of that for that song, now that listened to it That song needs to be quiet lmao

The next Leave My Ears Alone includes...some of the voice acting in Advance Wars Reboot Camp!!! (imo)

Taz's spin makes me think of the music that plays when Looney Toons logo pops up on screen.

Fun Fact 1: The Thunderbolt looping sound glitch can also happen with Ice Beam & Aurora Beam sound Fun Fact 2: Sonic also has the same issue in the final boss of Team Dark. He's supposed to say "I'll use your technique! CHAOS CONTROL!", but the bad audio mixing makes him say "I'll use your--CHAOS CONTROL!"

The intro surprised me so much I dropped my phone, which then landed on my face.

Wow, I put well over 1300 hours into Ruby and a couple hundred into Fire Red and never encountered the Thunderbolt glitch. I wonder what causes that? It's also still the best general-use Electric move in the series, even at 90 power.

What are the odds that both looney tunes and sonic games get mentioned in this video I honestly wasn't expecting it but I'm happy that the game gear and gensis versions of taz mania and sonic adventure 2 where shown also since the thumbnail for this video featured Shadow I thought that this video was going to exclusively focus on Sonic But obviously it didn't as evidenced by the other games that where featured alongside sonic adventure 2

301 glitch still going strong

I can confirm that this is, in fact, the ultimate

I want to say the sentence is "This is the Ultimate Lifeform" or "This is the Ultimate Life". Mostly because of the sentence he says at the end of the section when you win "I am the Ultimate life..."

Oh, come on; Pokémon's just giving you… _thunderous_ applause.

I've had the thunder glitch happen in fire red on hardware, was very confused when it happened.

I appreciated the assassin hit reference lol

I just got a Game Gear, and one of the games I got was Taz-Mania. I intentionally bought it because of your two "Worst Levels Ever" videos.

That Tazmania song sounds like an old steam train trying very hard not to die

Shadow actually says: "This is the ultimate showdown (of ultimate destiny), good guys, bad guys and explosions as far as the eye can see"

Shadow's sentence is definitely just cut off. It's Sonic Adventure 2, they somehow managed to forget how to space the lines after the first one.

Sounds like the Thunderbolt looping glitch is caused by terminating the referenced source too early. A similar glitch happens in SimCity 4 if you start dragging a road network out of a tile that has any non-road network (something to do with capacity reverting to Road, I think) and drag it long enough for the construction vehicles to spawn: What _I think_ it spawns the green crane (which I think is used to lay the ballast) then despawns it immediately because there are no (more) connecting train paths or because of an invalid network, but in doing so it orphans the sound emitter so it can't be moved or deleted. Fortunately, reloading also fixes it. In The Incredible Machine 3, one of the tracks in "Pictures" also suffers from this issue. Presumably due to it being on a unique track. The Thunderbolt glitch also affects Thunder, and in some copies of Ruby and Sapphire (Bulbapedia doesn't specify) the game freezes instead.

4:20 Ah yes, the “I’d really prefer if you would be quiet” theme

I feel better knowing that I don't own any games that has horrible music/sound design.

It's pretty annoying when

I have a couple suggestions: The fun house theme from the megadrive Spiderman game, as well as the entire soundtrack of Fantasia on the same system

Shadow the Ultimate Life Form, no More!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yet again people about SA2B because of bad English dub :( (which is not that good ngl)

You should do a series about getting softlocked in games you have coveted a few but a series explaining more of them and how they happen would be cool. I find it interesting how u may be forced to restart a level or game even just because something stops u or an item that u need isn’t available anymore. Or glitches that make u fail a level etc.

The footsteps from those mice sound like a Geiger counter

While the "talking to an NPC" theme in Tomba 2 may get annoying after a while for some people, it didn't really bother me personally. What I still can't look past is the sheer god-awful voice direction that game had. Never mind that most of the NPCs have rather cringey voices overall, but I've found quite a few spots where the on-screen text and the voice dialogue just aren't matched up, so certain lines are said by the wrong characters. On top of that, there are also sections where the sound mixing is done poorly and the game's audio overpowers the voices much like in SA2. Lastly, I don't know if this has happened to anyone else or it's because I was playing on an emulator, but I experienced a really weird bug once where the music wouldn't loop and instead start playing an extremely choppy version of a different theme. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Tomba 2, but these are issues that have always prevented me from appreciating the game's full potential

Something tells me that he thinks that he’s the ultimate…

This is the ultimate!

Let me say this. First, Sonic says "I'll use your---" before saying, "CHAOS CONTROL!!" when you're playing as Shadow. Second

4:20 ikr? I'd really prefer the game if it would be quiet.

L + Ratio + THIS IS THE ULTIMATE

SA2 has the WORST sound mixing of ANY game ever made.

Well sonic adventure 2 is a good game and has great music throw it all away is far from a good song it is annoying and repeitive and the lyrics might as well be non existent there hard to understand

one of the most annoying sound effects i've ever heard is in an obscure old game called "seven kingdoms 2: the fryhtan wars". it's a complicated Warcraft-style game where you have to conquer or befriend cities to acquire civilian workers to operate your mines and factories... if an enemy attacks your civilian units or buildings, the game makes a HORRIBLE *SCREAM* !

I'm with you for Tomba 2's talking music obnoxiousness, but most importantly now that I know that you are into Tomba games I hope they will be featured more! Since you like self-imposed challenges, how about beating both games without triggering any non-mandatory event? It's more difficult than it sounds because they are scattered absolutely everywhere.

you should make one of these with "most annoying character voices". i nominate the Shopkeeper from "starfox adventures dinosaur planet". *you. pay. THIS. much* . OW.
