Music to Cook By
02-19-2004, 05:49 AM
Given the Feb 18 snippet of DW2's chapter 15, I'm trying to recall if instrumental music does anything for Doug's powers.
Given that he appears to be cooking in the snippet, perhaps the theme music to
Iron Chef might be appropriate - particularly since it was originally written to be theme music for
Backdraft, a movie about firefighters

I'd say read the FAQ, except it ain't done yet. Nope, instrumental music does nothing. Doug has several snippets in his helmet which I always intended to use for comedic or dramatic effect -- cartoon sound cues, dramatic stings, stuff like that -- but I never got around to using it in-game, and it hasn't been appropriate yet in-story. The Iron Chef theme is as good an idea as any I've seen in a while...

Ever since I started watching
IC I've wondered if whoever picked that music for
IC's theme realized the
Backdraft connection at the time. A connection between a cooking show and a movie about fire tickles my sense of the absurd (and yet, it's somehow appropriate too )Jeanne

Hm. I've never seen Backdraft so I didn't catch that...

Doug doesn't have the "Roger Rabbit" version, no. He has the WB instrumental version for playing for fun (as an instrumental, it has no effect).
