The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay w/ 3D spatial sound (CMSS-3D HRTF audio)
12Use headphones only with any virtual surround features turned off.
This is a demonstration of The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay with the X-Fi Titanium's native CMSS-3D HRTF. This is the ORIGINAL game (demo), not the remastered 2009 version! The remastered version AFAIK does not use DirectSound3D for 3D sound.
I must say, Escape from Butcher Bay was really ahead of its time for a 2004 console port. Seriously, how many games from 2004 can you remember with native 1920x1080 resolution support (aspect ratio kept intact) or 64-bit executables? The sound design in this game was clearly a top priority, too. The accuracy of the binaural audio is shocking, making this one of the best games to play with CMSS-3D. I'm almost sorry I didn't prolong the fight with the mech-suit guard at the end just to hear more of his loud footsteps.
