Title: Game Pop Quiz!
Post by: J*** H******* on 2002-01-15 22:48:00
I got another one of my great ideas; let's have a game related pop quiz. :)

I know that the relatively low user count will make the pace very slow, or might even kill it completely, but that doesn't stop me from trying.

Rules are pretty relaxed, basically it's just that first one to give correct answer gets to ask the next question

You can ask anything about game; name, people who made it, some obscure plot detail, anything you can think of. Games can be either for PC or for some console, or even coin-ops, if you want. You can also give as much background info and hints as you wish, or you don't have to give anything. Also dropping hints later on if it seems that nobody knows the answer is allowed and even encouraged.

---

Oh yes, the question: Name this old... FPS (that's an understatement, IMHO, but I won't go into details yet). It happens on a space station called Citadel and must be completed within 7 hours if you are playing at the most difficult level.

Nope, it's not Doom. Although they were released almost at the same time (well, within few months of each other, at least).

And to reply to your edit; it's not System Shock 2, either. Although this one is really close. :)

That it is. :) SS2 was placed at von Braun and... The Other Ship, although there's small piece of SS1's first level in that game too.

As for your question: I have no idea. Although my evil mind suspects that it's some beat 'em up. Or not. :D

It couldn't be Age of Empires, could it?

Well d'oh! It's one of the few Click & Conquer games that I've actually played. Not that my memories of it would be particularly clear anymore, it has been awhile.

Anyway, Seph, let's hear that question. :)

Post by: Sephiroth 3D on 2002-01-18 00:05:00
Ok: Here's a variation of a sound used in the game I'm thinking of:

"The bidet will be ours!"

Hint: "bidet" sounds like "be'day"

That's close enough to the original that if anyone's played it, you'll know where it's from.

Darkness has guessed the Correct Answer: Star Trek Armada!

The original line was "The day will be ours!" as said by the Klingons. However, sometimes they said it too fast and it sounds like "The bidet will be ours!", which was the bastardized version I posted. :D

Yep, mirex is right, it's Mechwarrior 2. It had Clan Wolf and Clan Jade Falcon to choose from.

3 (IIRC, I haven't played it) had Inner Sphere agains Clan Smoke Jaguar. First one didn't have any clans, but was very good game, though. No idea about the fourth one, haven't played it, and I'm pretty sure that there is no 5, yet.

Mortal Wombat... Kombat? Although I don't know if there are five of them for PC, but OTOH I don't know any other beat 'em up series that would have five games for PC either. :) So that's my guess.

Sephiroth 3D: Yep, 4 was released quite soon after 3. Especially so if you compare it to Mechwarrior 2's developement that seemed to take years and years and included two dev teams; one was fired and other one decided to write the whole thing from scratch. :)

I didn't hear about it, it's a product of my own, sick, imagination (most likely came up with it when I wanted to make fun of MK, to annoy some friend). :P

Not surprising really (and neither is the fact that it seems to be pretty common 'term' in web); it rhymes, the mental image of bloodthirsty, arse-kicking wombat (http://www.magicnet.net/~wombat/morepics.htm) performing Fatality is pretty hilarious and it tends to annoy some MK fans (which I consider to be pretty damn good thing(tm)). :D

Bit more obscure question this time; What game has the following, rather motley crew: James Cook, Sir Francis Drake, Alexander Pushkin, Michelangelo, Cleopatra, Il Duce.

I really hope that it's not a product of localization (I have the UK version), but can't be sure.

It's none of the above, although you could most likely find many of those names from Sid Meier's games.

To confuse you even more; three more names: Paradise Lost, Ministry, Sister Morphine. And yes, they go into the same category with the last batch. :D

I admit, these hints are really obscure, I'm digging the resource files; I have seen only few of the names in the actual game so far. Don't worry, I'll start giving easier hints, sooner or later. :)

Alright, I'll give little bit less cryptic hint: this British game has quite unique physics modeling for its genre.

In fact, a person who was very closely involved with the developement of this game also programmed the first game that used such Newtonian concept. That _old_ game was for Amiga, being somewhat of a cult classic.

It's from 2001.

And the old one for Amiga is from 1989, or 1990.

I might post a slightly amusing screenshot later, if there are no answers.


Edit: Would this (http://www.sci.fi/~jarihu/hint.jpg) help? (147 KB) At least it should reveal the genre. :)

Title: Game Pop Quiz!
Post by: J*** H******* on 2002-02-21 01:17:00
Yep, I-War 2 it is. :)

And now for the hints; all names are ships' names and the physics modeling is pretty much unique, I-War, I-War 2 and that old Amiga game Warhead use Newtonian flight models (confused? think Starfuries in B5, it's like that). I know no other _commercial_ space sims that do that. Like I just said, the old game was Warhead, a true cult classic, programmed almost single handedly by Glyn Williams, who was also involved with both I-Wars.That is also hinted in the game, one of player's ships just happens to be called Warhead. :)

Idea to use names for a question came originally from the fact that I-War 2: EoC uses all kinds of strange and interesting names, including four or five borrowed from WW2-era Finnish warships. US fleet seems to be well represented also, so it's quite surprising that there are no names from British warships in the game (or I didn't spot any).

I found out just recently that EoC sold _really_ badly in US, and also the availability is rumoured to be horrible. Which is a shame, because the game is excellent combo of space sim and relocation of property (read: piracy) with some plot. It's very much Privateer-like, but puts little less weight on plot and more on action, which is also slightly more difficult than Privateer's and has more of a 'hard core'-feel to it, possibly due to the kick ass flight model. Perhaps the most notable difference is that EoC has very little FMV and dialogue, using text in shape of emails to carry the plot.

In short: if you like the genre, you should try it, it's really good.

Oh, here's the website: http://www.edgeofchaos.net/

Well, I can't go to sleep, so I might as well just give my question.  I know I got it right to mirex question.   5 years of being a mortal kombat fan can't be wrong.  

Anyways, here is the question.

Name the complete title of the game.  This game is a gun shooter at arcades, you can duel against someone else, you need to have good accuracy, and you can either choose "target range", "story", or "duel" in air, city, or forest.

Major hints:  You can kill almost every boss with one shot in the head, and it is one of my favorite games of all time (I may have mentioned this game before somewhere in this forum).

I'm not revealing what kind of shooter it is because it would be a given.

This should almost be a given.  

Hints:  Made by Konami.
Second game of the series, the third of the series just came out.  One of the best arcade games.  
This second game follows the story of the first game.  
The name of the characters are Falcon and Jackal.  
You use a rifle, that is bolted to the machine.

Not to mention that AVP is set several hundred years in the future and Mot said it was set in the year he was born. That would be Mot has yet to be born.

My guess is Shenmue, and Shenmue II.

Okay, I'm new, but I figured that I deserved a chance to give a trivia question, because this game is so classic...

What game (or series of games) involves such famous quotes as...

"I can't pick that up!"
"I don't think he'd like that..."
"You billowous bag of barnacle bait!"
and finally (unless you need more):  "Guybrush... I AM YOUR BROTHERRRR!!!!!!!"

Next Hint: "The Devil" has been broken into pieces, and these pieces are "coming together" to reform "The Devil".

Note: Extra points go to whoever can give the game names of  "God" and "The Devil". It will also clearly point out what the game is.

OOOH! I do know this because I just bought it like 3 months ago (poor dreamcast went under so games are cheap now)

Its Grandia II, correct?   :naughty:

The devil is Valmar and the god is Lord Granas (who, btw, has the sweetest frickin sword ever...)

My only complaint about that game is it's complete invariablility (i THINK thats the word im looking for...).  There are, to my knowledge, absolutely NO sub-quests in that game, right? YUCK... otherwise an excellent game   :P

P.S.  Is anyone else reminded of "Beat the Geeks" yet??

We have a winner! SSJ4_Flash guessed the correct Answer, Grandia II.

Yeah, Lord Granas DOES has a kickass sword! Subquests? I've yet to complete the game,
Spoiler: show
 I've only gotten slightly past the point where The beast guy dies & the kid rejoins your team.

But so far, I haven't really seen any subquests...

Does anyone know if the PC or PS2 edition look/are any better?

Oh, let's see... question, question... I hope that monkey island one didnt count    :wink:

Okay, I've got one...

Hint #1)  This game is an old one for Sega CD and involved such life-saving items as a bear-horn, night-vision goggles, tranqulizer gun, and gas-gun...

p.s.  Completely unrelated question: Why does my signature never show up...?

Gas gun........?  :-?

Sounds like something out of that "Darkwing Duck" cartoon from the days of yore.

So, I'm guessin' it was a "Darkwing Duck" game.
Title: Game Pop Quiz!
Post by: SSJ4_Flash on 2002-03-11 00:06:00

hint #2)  This was supposed to be a sequel to a POPULAR movie, although a real sequel was made in theatres later (which had no relation to the game and was a lot LESS popular)

My guess is that the game he has in mind has the actors that also played those parts. Find the names of those actors, and then find the name of the game they all worked together on. That's what he's thinking.

And I like the craftiness of that clue!

Nope. :) Although I really want to play IHNMAIMS, but the rip that I downloaded from... some abandonware site seems to be bit problematic on my computer.

Hmmm, another hint perhaps. There seems to be a theme of... well, falling, in the game. There's one genuine fallen angel, and at least three characters that are pretty much equivalent in their own way.

Here's a new hint for you: main character of this game has a somewhat unique problem; he can't die.

Or to be exact: there are very few ways to really kill him, and if you try some 'standard' method he'll appear to die, but will rise from the dead few moments later.

- GUARDIAN
- LEON
- CLONE

Chrono Trigger!

Reasons why:
Delta Force: Tri-Attack
Dream: People's dream sequences... Mostly about their pasts...
Eggs & Bacon: I'm not sure, but I remember eggs & bacon...
Guardian: One of the bosses
Leon: Misc Character
Clone: Won at the Fair. Important later in the game.

Ack!!!!!!!!!!

The next day after I answered, the DSL in my area went kaput, completely, leaving me with NO WAY of contact!  I'm using my dad's comp, because we didn't have enough room in my computer for a conventional modem, which is what I'm using.......

Anyway, on to the question.  This one might be hard, then again, it might not.

This game, which was one of the more obscure SNES titles that used the SuperFX2 chip, let you play as a mech that could change from tank to plane to a walking, stomping robot.

I haven't really been keeping tabs on the Pop Quiz, so I don't know if this game has already been used as a question.

The only game that I know that used the SuperFX2 chip was Star Fox, but I definately don't think that's the answer.  It sounds to me like mechwarrior.  It also sounds like robotech (you know, from plane to stomping robot).

Uhmmm... Starfox wasn't able to do that. However, Starfox 64, did all of that. (Which is my guess.)

As for Robotech (Macross, as it was release) it didn't use the SuperFX2 chip.

Correct, MOT!

Although, I'm not sure about the tank part, haven't played in like 6 years..... The other forms are correct.

That game was definitely fun, for its time....

[technical errata]
vValentine, StarFox (SNES version) used the first version of the Chip, the SuperFX.  Vortex used the second-generation chip, SuperFX2.

Oh yeah, the good folks at Linkline Communications finally got the DSL service back online.  Took 'em long enough......

Ok my question:

Another snes game in an isometric 3d perspective which is about a magician/mage and is an RPG style game.

Post by: Aaron on 2002-04-18 03:02:00
Hmm.  I definately have the ROM of it, but the trick is figuring out which one it is.  Is it "Brain Lord" or "Brandish" perhaps?  I can never remember which is which (I've only played each one once).

Maybe not.

Unless someone can give me a good reason why not to :)

SO... that narrows it down quite a bit.  Starting with E like that.

Is it Equinox?

Post by: M0T on 2002-04-19 01:17:00
Yes it is, I should have given some more clues before coming out with the first letter but I thought it might be a bit obscure, plus I havent played it in years and can't remember much about it.
Title: Game Pop Quiz!
Post by: Aaron on 2002-04-19 02:33:00
Oh boy, it's my turn!

This is an old (great) SNES game.  One of the first that I played.  It has two "modes" - one is a side-scrolling action type thing, and the other is an almost RPG/Sim type thing.  They switch out constantly throughout the game.

I'm sure some of you have played it, so I'm not gonna give any more hints yet... unless it's too hard?  I don't think it's too hard.

Anyway, have at it.

Dragonball Z (The RPG one). I can't think of another one off-hand...

No, it's not Dragonball Z.

This might make it a bit more obvious but... it's "RPG/SIM type thing" is more of a "Sim" thing, like SimCity.  Except you're not building a "city."

Oh come on... someone has to have played this.

Post by: Kendrilian on 2002-04-19 13:58:00
Okay.....  It is an RPG that requires alot of hand eye cordination, unless you don't want to do any damage.  Not made by SqureSoft for the PSX.

diablo? coordination? haha.
Title: Game Pop Quiz!
Post by: Kendrilian on 2002-04-26 01:24:18
sorry I've been a little busy, the RPG was made for the Playstation One, It was not made by SquareSoft, it requires alot of coordination, it was very hastily and clumsily made, the game is a semi-copy of Final Fantasy VII... (sound, and graphics)

not Diablo (I agree with you about Diablo Intel and you too Darkness), not Turok, and Not Real Life... (though the last is close) [not really] :P

if you want another hint I could give the people who made it... wannabees all of them!

when you say playststion one do you mean PSX or PS1?
Title: Game Pop Quiz!
Post by: Sephiroth 3D on 2002-04-27 07:52:30
Does it matter? The PSX and the PS1 are the same, except one is a smaller, post PS2-Release version of the other. There's no game that one can play that the other can't. But it would narrow down the time-frame we're looking at...
