Heh, that mechanical chain sound on the website is SOOO ripped from Warcraft3. Off-topic: Which reminds me, is there some sort of sfx library free to use for all? There are quite many sounds that seem to be all over the place, literally, like "Daggerfall's VERY characteristic door creek which I've also heard in TV shows and movies alike. A sound you simply can't mistake for any other, for those who know it. And God knows where Bethesda got it from in the first place! Even my brother, who only watched me playing Daggerfall occasionally once bursted out laughing and said: "Daggerfall!" when we were watching something on TV that featured that very sound. You can't miss it. But it's not only this sound, there's more. This is a question I always wanted to ask, so here we go.

Another example would be the footstep sounds that seem to be in every first-person game in existence. Think: Jedi Knight's sound when you're walking on metallic surfaces. Isn't that, like, everywhere as well?
