The Incentive game Zippy have a sampled Yippie! I know it's a voice but as I believe I heard it is writtenin basic and for 48K this is really rather good :o)
There is a download version of the Mastertronic game Cronos that has sampled instruments and music on the title screen.

Not Zippy but Splat! (as Daren says).
And Splat! is by no means 100% BASIC, especially that speech part.

Thanks for the posts but one more time: games with sampled sound (NOT speech).
The only one would be Firelord then, as the speccy simply wasn't powerful enough to produced sampled sound *and* run a game at the same time.
Firelord's effect was short enough so that the pause wasn't intrusive (since it was when you died anyway), but that's it!
Glider Rider 128k technically would qualify too, as it was a smapled tune played when it was game over, but again, it wasn't "in-game", and everything still had to stop while it played.

How many games have sampled sound? I don't think about sampled speech.
I remember one game: Shanghai Karate 128. Anything else?
As an additional...
...what a shite game Shanghai Karate is! Truly awful! no wonder they bunged in sampled sound to try to make it seem better than it is!
Starglider 128k is about the best use of sampled sound I have ever seen in any game.
I think I've found one... the 128k version of Chase HQ not only has sampled speech, but I'm sure the sound you hear when you choose to start a game is sampled from the arcade version...

Yes, I agree. I reckon it's a sampled sound. Dunno if it's from the arcade or not.

19 - excellent
I Ball - horrible speech, Tim Closs (was that his name?) also had the worst voice ever anyway.
Timex 2048 & divIDE 57c
Aye, I think it says "Rock the baby, rock the baby", but it sounds more like "What a baby, what a baby."

I know it's not sampled applause, but I still reckon it's a sample of summat.

They were just being lazy, isnt that exactly the same sound they used on the other Imagine game - Hyper Sports ?
