Just recently I dug this game out, and just for fun tried the German subtitles. Hahaha. The translation for the Chuck Berries was (literally translated back) JUNK Berries. I assume that the translators had no idea what the developers were talking about :-))
Axe = synonymous with an electric guitar. XD That's where the Axe joke comes from. Also, the song that plays is an excerpt for Johnny B. Goode, by CHUCK BERRY. XD
Oh, please do. My dad and I played the King's Quest games growing up, and seeing a playthrough of that with your great annotations would be fantastic.
I remember this!!! so great that someone has put this on youtube. OH and Chuck Barry is the man who played that song when Torin told boogle to become an axe guitar
fuzzymonkey, your comments make me laugh ("i like to see you put yourself in life-threatening situations, but only when it's funny"... "torin would make a great debater"). haha keep up the great work!
The comments keep me interested while I make these videos. Because I've played these so much, making side commentary during Torin's quest adds some spice in case the original playthrough is too boring.
Anyway, glad you're enjoying the videos...I should have another one up soon (Escarpa is almost done!).
I think the Boogle guitar thing is because Chuck Berry is a musician? At least that's what I'd always assumed. I'm really glad you're putting all this online because this was a serious childhood staple and I don't have a PC anymore.
I actually was recently told this by a friend, so I should probably take that particular annotation down. I can't help that I was deprived of popular culture (probably because I was playing TORIN'S PASSAGE!). :D
Anyway, thanks for the comments; it's good to know that people know about Torin's Passage and are interested in watching it. Sorry about the lack of a PC; hope that changes for you.

The Chuck Berry joke probably would have gone over better if they had put the Boogle/axe animation after...

I would feel extremely good about that. These classic computer games are so wicked

And still today... he was on tour just recently. Older than dust (born 1926), but still doing his stuff. I saw him in concert in the 70s.

Thanks for the comments; I've got a fall break coming up this weekend, so I should be able to get another one up soon.
Glad you enjoy my commentary, though; I worried that it might be distracting, but I guess not! :D

Thanks for the comment; watched a couple of your videos, too. Great singing! I love to sing, too, but I'm definitely a bass. Low E.
