You young'uns probably won't appreciate this as much as the fogeys among us. Thankfully, I got almost all the ones from games I played right.

11 out of 18 for me.
Do you ever walk alone like a drifter in the dark?
Curses. 15 out of 18. I never had an Atari, Intellivision, or NES, though so I get some sort of immunity for being so deprived.

17/18, but I''ll admit to a few guesses...I deserved about a 14.

15 of 18.
All this science I don't understand. It's just my job five days a week.
13 out of 18. Can''t believe I missed the INtellivision baseball sound. My friend and I played that game until the pads broke from using them so much. The scores were burnt into his tv screen as most of our games were 1-0.
Yankees rock, you know it's true...

18 of 18. I guessed on some of the last ones, but knew way too many for me to ever get laid again. Ever.

13 out of 18 but I played ever single one of those games. Guess it is true that memory is the first thing to go.
Hope they are wrong about the second.
16 of 18 here. Had the wife''s help on a couple though
13 of 18. Well that''s what dredging up memories of your youth at 2am does to you.

17 out of 18 for me. I only missed the ET one, which, like any self-respecting gamer, I never played.

16 out of 18.. missed the ET and Zelda one. Flat out guessed at a couple with a little help from the clue at the top. Got thrown a couple times because the start of the sound for the next question would play at the very end of the sound for the current question. Didn''t realize that was happening at first and almost made me miss some but I went with my first instinct.

I guessed on all but 2. :\\

10/18. Never played most of those games, so I consider that a good score.

Man. I only got 6. Of course, those were the only 6 I owned, but still. I missed a couple of the Pac-Man clips - damn you, Ms. Pac-Man!!

Getting the Zelda & Donkey Kong ones wrong were especially disheartening.
Whats really funny is if I close my eyes while listening to the arcade game sounds, I can almost smell the boardwalk arcades in Ocean City Md... mmm funnel cakes.

15 out of 18 for me. I think I played pretty much every game the pulled a sound clip from though, in their original incarnations even. I still can''t believe how terrible that E.T. game was.

I got 11 out of 18. I have never played almost all of the games. For the Donkey Kong one I meant to click it but missed and hit the one right above it.
