You could do a bit better than that. There are a few.

Meh can't be arsed with people shouting random numbers.

It's FF6 (although it was originally known as 3 when it was first released in US/Europe, as 2 and 3 on the nes and 5 on the Snes only got released in Japland.). Arguably the best one, or at least joint best with 7

I'm bored of this.

This could keep going for a while couldn't it?

It's Super Mario World.

I just cropped Mario out of the picture.

You know the Switch palaces you find which fill in blocks?

You did manage to get yoshi's island, it's slightly more obscure sequel.

Don't think you've ruined the thread. The last 3 are probably the hardest. Although they're all pretty famous, and 2 of them regularly appear on best games ever lists.

1 is Dungeon Master requiring the 1meg upgrade to play on your Amiga.

Brilliant game especially Halk the Barbarian.

I'm off to bleach myself to get back some coolness after that.

Slightly off subject, but not really. Doe's anybody remember "pitfall" on the ZX spectrum?


Title: Geeky Quiz
Post by: flammableBen on Tuesday, January 22, 2008, 08:37:40
I remember playing a pretty faithful free remake of pitfall quite recently. Can't remember for the life of me where it was.

I've always liked the box art for pitfall, with the rainbow coming out of his arse.

Righty, don't think anybody's going to get the last 2, they were the hardest.

5) is Planescape: Torment (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planescape:_Torment) Interesting for having far to much text and the voice acting Sheena Easton and Dan Castellaneta. Bit mental and pretty good.

7) is System Shock 2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Shock_2), notable for being generally quite excellent.
