   I remember Altered Beast as the pack-in for the Genny 1 initially.   
   Whenever it talked, everything on the screen stopped until it was done   
   talking.  The speech was close, but not on the money.  Other games since   
   then, I can't concur that they all sounded as good as the arcade,   
   especially any games that had stereo sound in the arcade.  The SNES did   
   far better on sound, as the Genny had FM synthesis that could be   
   manipulated successfully to play waveforms, whereas the SNES had a DSP   
   that operated in cooperation with its CPU and could produce stereo sound.
