      @mediamogul should I take this as an advice? :-)
      I think next time we go for some drink I'll talk about soccer.

        Not a bad idea. I need to learn some sports ball talk myself.

            I'm actually winded from laughing! It's been forever since I've seen those and I had forgotten that entire exchange. I'll be digging this show out for another marathon soon. Thanks for that!

              Yeah Gauntlet seemed more fun when played with others. Frenzy got my vote.

                Even though Gauntlet was one of my all time favorite co-op arcade games, I'm going to have to agree with @mviars

                  @backstander Haven't tried any - haven't had the time, and after this week I won't have the chance to play until early January.

                  Still, for this week I voted Frenzy then - followed your guidance and recommendation. Hopefully I'll get to play it at least once or twice.

                      My frenzy is completely quiet. I downloaded the MAME Sample fullset from progettosnaps and didn't find the frenzy sample.
                      The youtube frenzy video @GtBFilms posted has sounds (and some very funny robotic voices).

                      Are any of you guys able to put sounds to this game?

                        The difficulty really increases when the enemies start to shoot. The good thing is that when they shoot each other you still earn the points. :-)

                        When I play MAME ROW I start with the goal of at least break the default hi-score. As this game doesn't have one, I started with the goal of get an extra-life (3000 points). And I got it:

                        I'm waiting for you guys! :-)

                          @meleu I'll check my cab when I get home, but I definitely have sound - it might be the same sample set as Berzerk uses as it's the sequel to that game and very similar.

                          I'll check tonight and send you the sample set if I have it.

                            @GtBFilms My fault. I've just realized that the compatibility list has a column for samples. And the sample for frenzy indeed is berzerk. Thanks!

                                  @UDb23 OK, I'm going to create the github repository for the MAME ROW overlays (and some others). Do you have a github account?

                                      OK to put files there too, as long as you keep author credits :-) )

                                          FYI: found some interesting "enhanced" (but unofficial) sound samples, not only for Berzerk/Frenzy, here.

                                            @meleu Can please specify on Github that these overlays are NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE.
                                            I want to avoid, as already happened with other retropie related stuff, that they could be used on some Retropie Image sold on ebay or similar.
