Talk:Rally-X

message: I'm thinking it might be added to the Trivia Section that the background music was also used for the Nivel X main theme, Nivel X was a kinda well known argentine videogame related show, aired on  Magic Kids which even today enjoys a cult-like following. I don't know what it could be used as a reliable referency, but the show and its intro can be found on YouTube.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.142.137.187 (talk) 02:39, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

message: The article states that the soundtrack is "unique to this game". However, the version I have played (which is NOT the original arcade game) is a very clear variation of the Pac Man theme (during the interlude after  level 2, when a "giant" Pac Man chases the ghosts). Rally X is a Namco game, which also produced Pac Man. This needs to be verified.
That one is NEW Rally-X, which adds the Lucky Flag, which scores your fuel bonus, and the new theme. The original Rally-X has a different in game tune.74.211.59.145 (talk) 19:48, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rally-X Soundtrack 

message: This is not a racing game in the usual sense of racing video games (Color TV Racing 112, Pole Position, Initial D, etc). It's not even a vehicular combat game (Mario Kart balloon battle, Twisted Metal). It's more of an eat-em-up, a scrolling version of Pac-Man with Pac-Man and ghosts turned into cars and pills turned into flags. --Damian Yerrick (☎) 02:43, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Retro/Racing? 

message: Just a thought,  but has it occured to anyone that Rally-X might actuially be pronounced Rally Cross?  Which is how Japanese usually call the X symbol (the Playstation Controller for instance), Rally Cross does make for a more gramatical title also. --Guru Larry (talk) 10:28, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem is, unless there's a valid reference denoting how this title is meant to be pronounced, your theory represents WP:OR.  And regardless, the written title of the game is Rally-X and not Rally Cross.  So at the most, if you could find a reference on pronunciation then you could add a note about that in the article.  But retitling based on pronunciation would be out. --Marty Goldberg (talk) 15:25, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rally-X Pronounciation 

message: Rally-X is a multidirectional driving game based on another very similar, but made earlier, and black&white - it's a very important missing information - please help me know which game is it, for fixing the information on this wikipedia page - thanks  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.196.93.63 (talk) 11:44, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Rally-X is based on a 70's black&white game 

message: Sheriff (Nintendo, arcade, 1979) predates it, though there may be earlier games still.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.79.110.43 (talk) 15:55, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not the first game with a soundtrack. 

message: The japanese websites posted here as sources seem to have "1980-01" just as a placeholder, indicating "somewhere in 1980", I don't think games at that time were show with so much anticipation. The japanese wikipedia page mentions a Japanese release in november of that yer. Mirad1000 (talk) 00:46, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
