Super Breakout VS Circus Atari

[Torr]

"The best-known form of distortion is “harmonic distortion,” where the output of an audio signal contains additional components that occur at the natural harmonics of the input. When a device clips, the waveform is generally flattened. Analog devices tend to gently flatten the waveform and produce what we think of as saturation. When a digital device clips, it does so by chopping off the tops of the waveforms abruptly. If this flattening is symmetrical, it produces odd-order harmonic distortion at the third and fifth harmonics".

 

Quite often the simplest explanation is the correct one

The sound effects in Super Breakout are grating to me.

 

See if this is better or worse:

Circus Atari all the way. Super Breakout is still a really good game but at the end of the day it's still just a revved up version of pong (guess you could say the same for Circus Atari though too).

I always considered these revved up versions of Pong as well.
