From the Star Wars lightsaber to the Wilhelm Scream, the best sound effects become the stuff of legend. Videogames are no exception. But instead of just showing you the ones we think are the most recognisable and legendary, we thought we'd give you a little quiz.

Check out the sound clips below, then head on over to the next pages where we'll reveal which game each one is from. Have fun!

Hey... LuckyNumbr73 - is that a ZZ Top reference? I seem to remember Zoe Ball asking the band how many albums they would make and which number they'd stop at and Billy Gibbons said "Lucky number seven...ty three". Might just be coincidence :P

It was a nice article, but it was somewhat boring.

Awesome article. I only managed a few of them though. Never played enough classic games.

Pretty much the only real reward for finding secrets in most games is that "little pat on the back because you're clever" noise from Zelda and Tomb Raider, etc...
Made me feel clever for clicking on this article.
