(This is an edited version of the above document)
Below is a summary of these vocalizations.
We've just included
vocalizations of Bud or Buzz and not vocal expressions of others (e.g.
a
third voice saying "four") or any other types of sound effects
(e.g.
sound of ball going into water, ball smashing car window, car alarm,
squirrel getting hit with ball, etc.).
Note that, like with Rudy, Buzz refers
to the player using one of many
nicknames. In this game the nickname choices include at least the
following:
- Hacker
- Clubfoot
- Hotshot
- Spud
- Turkey
So, for example, Buzz might say "Get
off my lawn, Spud". Or "Get off my
lawn, hotshot". Many of these statements are said sometimes with
a
player reference, sometimes without. If the statements tends to usually
include a player reference it will be noted in the list below by using
the word player in parenthesis...like this...(player).
One further note...this game has a feature
adjustment setting where the
gophers can be set to be "rude" or "very rude".
