I think he just has a soft spot for Windows. He's got about four 80s/early 90s models stacked away in the back of the basement.

You're getting off topic. You could discuss this elsewhere. :ph34r:

I've gotten to experience all extras and easter eggs (I found them all on my own too!) except the backwards ones. How does one go about listening to the music backwards? I can't figure out how to with my CD player...
Somebody help me!
:please:
Very tasty!

It won't work on a CD player. You need the proper software to do it. Maybe someone can recommend something, because I unfortunately don't have a program that can do it.

One time I tried taping NTTH on a cassette, then opening the case, taking the actual tape out and putting it back in backwards. It didn't work too well, though.

Hey, what do you want? I was a kid when I did that! :P



okay, fine, it was last Thursday! Happy now? :P

dont really want to bump this, but I dont really want to start a new topic either <_<

I (actually, a friend) found something in the screaming sequence at the end of "you dont love me anymore"
if you take the screaming, reverse it, and slow it down 3 times in sound recorder (800% I think)
once everything is reveresed and slowed down, it is at about :25 (considering you included the couple second silence after the screaming)
there is a song playing half way through the screaming
it sounds like:
when we call and ..... something cycle with the pain, with the pain......
some parts left out because i cant understand them

anyway, I have searched all over the web for someone else who has found this and nothing has turned up. I hope some of you found it interesting :)

Cody, I like you already!

Interesting find. I don't think I've ever heard of a backwards part in that section, but it doesn't surprise me.
