Did anyone ever try playing the original worms CDROM as an audio CD back in the day? The saga of Boggy B and Spadge, along with the full vocal version of the worms theme tune still brings a tear to my eye.

Back when the code was a couple of mb, and the "prerendered FMVs" (shoutouts to intel indeo) only took up a couple of hundred so you had to come up with something else to fill the disc.
- andrepd 10y agoWhoa! I had no idea there was a vocal version of the theme song. I heard that theme song probably thousands of times before, but never realised it had lyrics. Neat!
- david-given 10y agoHey, Bjorn Lynne! One of the classic demoscene musicians --- known as Dr. Awesome. I have a tonne of his CDs. ...also, I see that someone has deleted his Wikipedia page. Sigh.

- jads 10y agoI remember this - I'd often try this with most CD-based games, PlayStation ones in particular used CD audio for game soundtracks.
- s_kilk 10y agoSame trick with Quake. The soundtrack was done by Trent Reznor, so I consider it to be a 'secret' NIN album.
- camtarn 10y agoI similarly had no idea that there was a vocal version! Trying to find the theme from the version I owned (Worms United - basically Worms + the Reinforcements expansion) led me to this: not only the theme, but the oh-so-very-old CG cutscenes from the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ckbNvrM83A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ckbNvrM83A The theme is still brilliant, but those cutscenes... oh deary me.
