Best Sound on GameCube
 
 
Sound continues to become an increasingly key element in gaming, especially with the advent of affordable surround sound systems. As game sound effects have become more advanced, designers have started using sound as a key element. It's now more important than ever that games feature a wide variety of diverse, realistic sound effects, as well as high-quality, professionally recorded speech and dialogue. Here is the winner of Best Sound on GameCube:

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem

 
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Silicon Knights

Anyone who has had the pleasure of playing Eternal Darkness could readily attest to the extremely impressive quality of the game's audio--especially those equipped with Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound systems. Actually, the audio is quite possibly the best aspect of this superlative game, as everything about it, from the engaging and believable voice acting performances to all the creepy atmospheric effects, sounds spot-on. As you fight an unspeakable evil over the ages and from the perspective of a dozen different characters, the sound of Eternal Darkness plays a key role in allowing you to suspend your disbelief and truly get a glimpse of the horror and madness surrounding the game's ill-fated protagonists.
