I've been laughing for a while on this and felt I had to share this because nobody else I know could possibly understand. So I'm playing Berzerk last night in my bar with a friend since I finally got the 2 player button working (minor harness issue). I don't get to play Berzerk as often as I would like since it is at my bar and not my house yet. So I am playing as player two and decided I would try to play from right to left instead of left to right instead of right to left. I got a couple game of 5K and then one 8K. So finally I decide F it I'll just keep moving to the right. Now I also have to say that I did have a couple of beers in me. So in my last game I am in my zone and anyone that has played 2 player Berzerk knows you have only a couple seconds between players. I am at like 10K and het killed and I yelled at my friend to hurry up cause it was his turn. So I look on the screen and it is the white player on the right side, in other words he is playing one of my turns because his players are all gone. Needless to say he gets killed in like 3 seconds and I jump back in for my last guy and finish with 11.4K. I just laugh because it's my best score ever, but I totally wasted a turn because I wasn't paying attention. It's amazing how much that game gets you totally hyped up. One thing I'd like to ask other Berzerk owners as well is if their game sort of pops before and after the robots talk.
 
Yep...I get a slight audible pop or click....just as you described.

Just got mine up and running again last night....and had a "Man do I just love this game" moment....;)....
 
Berzerk is one of my favorite games. I can play it for hours saying, "just one more game" over and over. Sadly, after all of that playing, my scores still suck.
 
Yep, mine pops, especially since I have the volume way up. Also last time I played something happened that I've never seen before. No robots on the screen at the beginning of the maze. I've never seen less than 3. Evil Otto came out very quickly. Anyone else ever witness this? Gotta love that pink player 2.
 
Just decided to play a few rounds and try to beat my high score. I can confirm that mine pops at the beginning of the speech as well.
I'm also happy to say that I beat my high score. My new high score is a pathetic 10,440. :D
