Today is quiz day, so you know what that means. Last weeks quiz

Question 4 (Sound 42) (#1) An unorthodox FPS title, more of a FP.
(#2) This game was made by now bankrupt company.

Question 5 (Sound 43) (#1) An unorthodox multi platform racing game.
(#2) This game is tied to merchandise.
(#3) Added another sound clip Sound Sample 43 hint 1
(#4) This game is a blast multiplayer, but it's not over net and not split screen.
(#5) A version of this game for console had a 2 connectors on the cartrige for gamepads.

Score:
Question 1 (Image 22) 10 Points: Beefysworld

I though, based on how few guesses where needed this week, that you didn't need hints :) Anyway, I'll add some later today when I add this weeks quiz.

You know that doesn't surprise me as this game is VERY well know and of it's genre probably most played. Unfortunately many games of that era and platform may sound similar and that's where the problem starts :)

Edit: Thats not to say the others games don't represent their genre as well, because many would find them as an example of how to make that type of games.

Damn, finally a guess on sound 43 and it's incorrect.
Here is a Hint: The game is many types of transport.

No this game has a very different view point from Road Rash. Also it has a merchandise tie in and many types of transport to race.

Road Rash 2....i dunno. Everything about that second sound clip screams the road rash series. If it's not from that, i'm stumped.

Sound 42 - Half life 2?

It sounds very half lifeish as well as familiar.

new guess: Quake 4

Incorrect, not Daikatana. This game came out about 2 years earlier. Hint 2

EDIT: This weeks quiz might be late because I can't upload files. [something "mysql" is broken at FS]

Ahahahaha.....I finally listened to the whole of sound 41 and it's become so obvious. If only I hadn't stopped halfway thru before.


It's starcraft.

Correct :) I try to keep some of my questions (well if the opportunity presents itself) in the now.

I might need to think about hints for the remaining questions now, as there have been no guesses.

EDIT: Thats a interesting note on the Konami Justifyer, definitely worth a point :)

The others really have me stumped.

On a side note.....I think konami also make a light gun for the genesis. I recall it just being a pistol though. Nothing crazy like the menacer.

Correct on sound 44.
As for the others, incorrect. The guess/observation on the image 23 was pretty good.

You are correct on both images (22-23).
Looks like you did a bit of research/thinking :)

I was close - right generation, wrong console.

It's the Menacer for the Mega Drive / Genesis.

The worm one is Willy the Worm.
