lbaeza Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Hi Here's a capture of a Knight Rider episode featuring a videogame played on KITT's monitor: It looks like it's an Atari game (computer game? maybe 5200 game?)... Anybody knows what game is that? Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machf Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 IIRC, there was one time they had Rally Speedway on KITT's monitor... don't know about that one, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machf Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Hmmm... from what I'm reading, Rally Speedway apparently is an improved version of Intellivision Auto Racing, so we both mean the same episode, then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Another thing i Know for sure (almost) is that when something is put in Kitts 'analyser' you hear sounds from Millipede... but how to prove it ... Marius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marius Yea I remember this too, it's definately millipede or centipede. I seem to remember a few unmistakable Pokey sounds coming from Kitt in various episodes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird3rd Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I remember that game ... it was from a first season episode called "Nobody Does It Better." I didn't know what game it was, but the "3" in the lower-right is clearly in the classic Intellivision font, so that much was a dead giveaway. There was also an episode (don't remember which one it was; might have been in the fourth season) that featured a strange-looking computer with a Texas Instruments logo on it. I don't remember it clearly enough, but it clearly wasn't a 99/4a; it might have been a 99/8. I loved the video game sounds that they always used for KITT. Come to think of it, even to this day, whenever a television show needs to use "video game sounds" in a scene where someone is shown playing a video game, they always seem to use recognizable sound samples from one of a handful of classic video games, even when the players have PlayStation controllers in their hands. As bad as they are, they seem to use 2600 Pac-Man sounds the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunstar Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I think they do that for video game "atmosphere" as anything from the 90's 32-bits forward are too realistic. They want to make sure the viewer knows it video game sounds and not something else... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably but it's definitely Intellivision, as also mentioned above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The year of the episode would probably further confirm that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbaeza Posted July 15, 2008 Author Share Posted July 15, 2008 Hi Thanks for the responses so far. Here are some more captures of KITT playing games, this time Pac Man: I can't tell if that's the 5200 or the 400/800/XL Pac Man...
