@azmanntoz that's because digitized speech like that back then *was* amazing. Ghostbusters and Impossible Mission were some of the only games that could do that. It was a serious amoutn of assembly code to do digitized speech. It was either 4bit or 8bit speech, I don't recall.

We take digitized audio for granted now, but that was something rare and wonderful back then.

It actually was a really good game on c64 and sega master system. It's a shame the NES conversion was done by LJN

Brings back wonderful childhood memories seeing this game, and what a brilliant game it was. My favourite on the Commodore 64 without a doubt.
