Hack description

The voice samples in this arcade port were discovered to be corrupted because of an encoding issue known as bit-reversal. This hack fixes said samples to restore their clarity.
No testing has been done when it comes to applying other hacks in conjunction.

Maybe I'm just not getting it...Creature6672022-08-07Version 1.0

I can't for the life of me hear any difference in the sample rate for the voices. I played the hack back to back with both the official release and the unlicensed version and I simply can't tell any difference between them... *Shrugs
