[edit] Sound effects

What citation is needed about the PC Speaker sounds ? God damn, just play the game and hear them!!!! Use Dosbox if you don't have a old computer, just install it with "PC Speaker" sound and you will hear actual speech using the PC Speaker instead of the common blip sounds. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.232.8.46 (talk • contribs) .

Verifiable information is needed, in accordance with Wikipedia's five pillars. Cheers --Pak21 19:09, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Verifiable information : the game can be downloaded here -> http://www.the-underdogs.info/game.php?gameid=1017 and is playable under a real DOS machine, or emulated using DosBox 0.65 or new. So, install it with PC Speaker sound option, and hear by yourself the speech, and sound using only the PC speaker (not just typical *blip*blip* sound, but real speech, you can hear the commander speeching "brother marines..." and such). I cant imagine any more verifiable information than the game itself. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.232.211.93 (talk • contribs) .

That would be original research and is not allowed on Wikipedia; again, please read about Wikipedia's five pillars. One example of what would be acceptable would be a review of the game in a major magazine which comments on the sound effects in the game. Cheers --Pak21 10:08, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
Wouldn't that be original research as well? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 199.200.253.9 (talkcontribs) .
No. Original research is "a term used on Wikipedia to refer to material added to articles by Wikipedia editors that has not been published already by a reputable source." --Pak21 18:52, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Game Review and Facts

Ok, in one of my travels to my parent's house, I found a The One Amiga magazine, from around feb/199x that has a review of the game. I took the facts from there. I also have the original game, with box and all, so I took some facts from there too. Image:space-hulk-game-review.jpg

[edit] Difficulty

Would it be inappropriate to say how hard that this game this game was. Carl 05:29, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

If you have a verifiable, reliable source for this statement, it would be appropriate (I can't imagine it would be too hard to find one, as I remember this being mentioned at the time). If you don't, it wouldn't. Cheers --Pak21 08:21, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
