PrinceWatercress plays Berzerk (Atari 2600) - Part 13 of 13

Just when you thought this was done, I get to show off a ROM hack of the game that allows for digitized speech. Better late than never, and what's there is pretty awesome.

In 2002, Mike Mika hacked digital voice samples similar to those in the arcade version into the Atari 2600 port of the game. It includes the phrases "Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert!", "Chicken, fight like a robot," and "The humanoid must not escape" as you move from one room to another. The game also has darker blue walls and a green player character to more closely resemble the arcade version.

There were also physical copies of the game sold at the 2002 Classic Gaming Expo, which quickly sold out, giving this ROM hack physical form.

You can find the ROM hack here.
