What are your favourite Atari 2600 sound effects?

I'm not a huge fan of the Pac-Man sound effects but I have to admit I keep hearing them in movies and commercials. They've become the de facto sounds to indicate "this guy is playing a video game" in a scene. The best one was Febreeze where the mom comes in to yell at the kid but because his room smells nice she becomes happy. The kid is clearly playing a GameBoy Advance SP and yet it is definitely 2600 Pac-Man bleeping and blooping out of it.

 

This is so prevalent in media that it even has its own TV Tropes entry (Warning: The TV Tropes Wiki is a huge time sink; enter at your own risk! :!: ).

 

The completion sound in Adventure, puts a smile on my face whenever I hear it :)

 

Adventure will never stop being my favorite video game. Ever. :cool:

I always liked the sounds of the ship in Star Raiders when everything is critical and your ship can only take 1 more hit before being vaporized. Your blaster fire is all jacked up, the engines are intermittant... Then all of a sudden an enemy cruiser shows up and blows you away... Star Raiders is still one of my favorites.
