![by Kiki, 19 minutes ago:
Ripping CDs wasn’t introduced with the 360, it was a thing ever since the first Xbox. I have a funny story about that one, actually.
So back when the original Xbox was current, my dad’s workplace bought one and offered it as some sort of weekend rental thing. My dad, having video game loving kids, jumped on this opportunity and signed up first for the rental. So we got to play an Xbox for a weekend. However, the only game that came with the console was Rally Sport Challenge, a pretty ordinary car game that quickly got quite boring for us kids, especially since there only was one controller which meant no multiplayer. This meant that we quickly started exploring the options on the console, discovering the CD ripping feature and subsequently that the tracks on the drive would playback in the game. We intently tried to make the silliest music choice and loaded up an album of children’s music on the console, named it “[dad’s name]'s Bathtub Favorites” and laughed our asses off at the tonal clash. The highlight being the jolly tune “vi ska gå till Skansen!”, meaning “we’re going to Skansen!”, framing the racing as some form of bizarre frantic roadtrip to the Stockholm zoo Skansen.
Fast-forward a bit and the rental Xbox has now been hopping around several people’s homes over the weekends. All of a sudden my dad’s coworker from England tells him about a strange experience on the rental Xbox, recounting how the music in the included racing game seemingly did not fit the tone at all. In fact, it did sound vaguely like Swedish, but since he didn’t know the language well he wasn’t sure. His only assumption being something like “we ska go till Skansen?”.
I like to believe our little prank made Rally Sport Challenge a whole lot more enjoyable and amusing for everyone involved.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:p2rxewhhpvr236uqoapmx6cl/bafkreicvpw7g56nhllhfj33dvqpjcwdk66bj2xwhhciyq5perbgcccpsf4@jpeg)
