    88%. Not going to complain. :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 764 ✭✭✭ProjectColossus


    88% with 2 or 3 "I bloody knew that one!" answers. Should have been at least 90% :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,067 ✭✭✭Gunmonkey


    88%, missed Doom in the text of the "How are SF, MK, DoA and Doom all related" and picked beat-em-ups :(


    Also didnt know a KI character.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,752 ✭✭✭pablomakaveli


    82%. Didnt read a couple of questions properly and got them wrong. A consequence of doing it at nearly 1 in the morning. Still better than i thought i'd get though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 830 ✭✭✭Robby91


    80% with a few guesses :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,345 ✭✭✭Somnus


    74% I pretty happy with that... Some stupid mistakes though!

    Ditto.

    Probably coulda got 2 or 3 extra right.

    Made that mistake too, never reading the question properly!

    But I guessed a few so makes up for it I suppose. 72% should have been a bit higher few accidents in there!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,734 ✭✭✭Newaglish


    84%, it's an easy enough quiz but would have been handier had I played Half Life and Counterstrike!

    Ack, prepare to be disappointed. My but 19 years on this earth have left me devoid of lots of Nintendo and PC knowledge

    72%, quite a few guesses

    Still, I knew Half-Life, Command & Conquer, Civ, SimCity... :D

    Just... not... "HU IS DIS 2D, PIXELATED BAD GUY?" or "WUT IS DIS SPIRAL IN THE CENTRE OF ZE MAP?" (Guessed that one right, though!)


    Edit: 888 posts. Never posting again. Suck it.

    92% a few were guesses like the dune faction question


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users Posts: 2,779 ✭✭✭Spunge


    80%, missed some obvious ones.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,910 ✭✭✭Sisko


    Also 92% but very few guesses, they made some I wouldn't know too easy due to unlikely other options.

    I never played dune 2, got that one wrong. I got the WoW one wrong too even though I did play that for a couple of months back in 06.

    Woah way to make a gamer feel old :p Bit mad when people start talking about games such as Half Life like its Space Wars or something... :eek:

    But yeah I imagine gamers born in the 90's will find that quiz a lot harder then the rest of us.:P


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    90% I r old skool.

    Warning some of the questions are quite poorly written... for example :
    Descent could be played over the internet but the ability to do so came out AFTER Quake.... so technically Quake was the first, but Descent was released first.

    Some are just silly, like the Bomberman one... the original Bomberman looked nothing like that (he had a cape for a start)

    And some are just plain wrong... like the APC Amoured Personnel Carrier in Halo was originally called the M12 LRV Armoured Personnel Carrier until the mechanima series Red Versus Blue made jokes about it being called a Warthog (or Puma or Unicorn) and Bungie honoured them by changing its nick name in the game to that.

    I'm just narked I didnt get 100% :p

    DeV.

    I missed Half-Life 1, but I looooove HL2. One good thing about the time between HL games is that a new generation can get in on the action. EPISODE 3, PLZ

    Yeah, found the Nintendo and retro consoles ones hard (At least I know what a Dreamcast controller LOOKS like... little victories :o )

    My gaming history goes: Gameboy -> Playstation -> PS2 -> Xbox 360

    What's a Gamecube? Sonic the WHO? What d'ya mean only two dimensions? Needs MOAR bloody screen. :D

    Also, rage @ the strategy question. "Which of these is an RTS?" *sees Civ at the top, no need to keep reading*

    "WRONG. Civ is a turn-based strategy game. LOL NUB."

    :mad:

    78% Ah ffs! I knew a few that I got wrong and all :mad: :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 44 phant0m

  • Registered Users Posts: 6,911 ✭✭✭SeantheMan

    76% only because I got asked multiple questions on Command & Conquer which I know ziltch about.

    I was more satisfied that I got the obscure questions right :)
