One major exception is peter pack rat: even if you turned sound attract mode OFF in the menu, it STILL plays during EVERY attract loop (not even every 8th which would have been tolerable). This explains why most arcade ops who had this game shut the machine off until someone wanted to play, as it gets INCREDIBLY annoying. This isn't true. the menu attract mode sound disable does indeed work, but when the sound is on the game plays sounds every attract cycle, instead of the usual every 8th cycle or so. This still drove operators up the wall, so those who didn't disable attract mode sounds entirely tended to leave the game unplugged, I think.
Bonus points for someone who makes a patch to the game to only play attract mode sound every n cycles.
