@BearsEatBeets Sorry, but it'll be awhile before I can do that since I don't have access to my computer. Been using my dad's phone to post here recently.
@RogerRoger It's alright, if I took half off for CoD I'd be taking it off of most of the other scores as well. I decided quite early in scoring to let it slide.
No problem @WanderingBullet, it's not uncommon for it open up to a volunteer.
To reiterate Rog's shout out, anyone feel like putting us to the test this weekend?
@RogerRoger I'm phone only 99% of the time. In fact the only time I used a computer to post on this site was to make the quiz! It's probably why I struggle to find motivation to get those MGS screenshots I promised up in any reasonable amount of time 😂
@RogerRoger ah my computer chair sucks too much! Makes my already bad back even worse. I would love to spend more time on my computer but I'm just too old haha. Weird though, I remember I used to come home from school and just spend all night chatting to friends on MSN back in the day, how times have changed
It's almost the weekend, so it's time for a new quiz. Best of luck everyone.

4. c. There is no The Sims: Vikings. But I assume that’s gotta be on the docket.

7. Hosea, John Marston, Abigail Marston, Jack Marston, Charles, Sadie, Strauss, Molly ...I can see the other characters in my mind but I can’t remember their names. The buxom girl, the African American girl, the the bearded overweight guy who always wants to play cards or dominos or whatever, the cook, the scumbag crazy guy, the guy you bring in and spare his life to stay with the gang...
8. Metroid?
9. Days Gone
10. The Last of Us
11. Sounds like someone in SMT
12. Death Stranding
13. Witcher 3
14. Final Fantasy
15. Persona series
16. Uh... ok, from here to the end it’s all a complete guessing game, just hoping for some random amazingly lucky guess. Starting here ...Far Cry?

“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
Okay here goes nothing (which hopefully won't be my score)
1. Seems like a trick, isn't it a shovel?
2. The Beano
3. Soul Caliber 2

5. I have nothing
6. I'll guess C again
7. Arthur Morgan
John Marston
Abigail Marston (& Jack)
Hosea Matthews
Micah Bell (almost put Richards then remembered that's a footballer)
Bill Williamson
Charles Smith
Javier Escualla (not sure on that spelling)
Lenny (can't remember surname)
Molly O'Shea
Mary-Beth
Sadie Adler joins although with Sean the Irish fella whose surname also eludes me.
I know there are 3 other women in the camp and it's bugged me for ages trying to remember their names but I finally give up and will have to look them up after submitting my answers.
8. no idea, does Samus fight Metroids in Metroids and hence why it's called Metroids (never played it)
9. I'm fairly sure they are in Minecraft
10. The Last of Us
11. Brazilian Zombie Soccer
12. Death Stranding
13. their tongues are very useful for a Witcher

15. I'm pretty sure I fought them in Persona 5
16.
17. is there a version of Guitar Hero where you fight demon fans?
18. Skyrim
19. Facebook the game
20.
21. maybe the floating eyes from Doom?
22. just because of the last 3 letters Pokemon?
23. sounds like something from Harry Potter
24. Animal Crossing
Well it started badly, it tailed off a little in the middle and the less said about the end the better — but apart from that it was excellent.
Thanks for having a go at the quiz everyone. Here's the answers, and I'll post the scores in the next post:
1) In Shovel Knight, what kind of gardening tool does the title character use for his primary attack? Shovel
2) In Hitman 2, the Elusive Targets all have special nicknames, such as The Appraiser, The Politician, and The Stowaway. But what nickname was given to Sean Bean's character, Mark Faba? The Undying, as he always returns after seemingly dying.
3) Which game started the "Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry Series" meme by having that message on its boxart? Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne, or Shin Megami Tensei Lucifer's Call as it was known in Europe.
4) Which one of these isn't a PS2 Sims game? The Sims: Vikings
a. The Sims Bustin' Out
b. The Urbz: Sims in the City
c. The Sims: Vikings
d. The Sims 2: Castaway
5) In the Monster Hunter series, there's plenty of friendly cat-like creatures. They are often found helping around town or in the canteen. What species are they? Felynes
6) Which one of these isn't a world that appeared in the original Rayman game? The Frozen Glades
a. The Dream Forest
b. Band Land
c. Blue Mountains
d. The Frozen Glades
e. Picture City
f. The Caves of Skops
g. Candy Chateau
7) In Red Dead Redemption 2, there have been a lot of people part of the Van der Linde gang. Can you name them? I'll award 1 point for naming at least 5 gang members, and 2 points for naming 10 gang members. For this question, first names or other commonly used names are acceptable answers. The Red Dead wiki lists around 30 or so different characters, but some of the more notable members include Dutch van der Linde, Hosea Matthews, Arthur Morgan, John Marston, Uncle, Abigail Roberts, Bill Williamson, Javier Escuella, Leopold Strauss, Lenny Summers, Charles Smith, Micah Bell, and Sadie Adler. I'd also accept more questionable characters such as the child Jack Marston, and Cain the camp dog.
Bonus round
Listed below are various monsters and demons. For each of them, name a game or a game series that they appeared in. 8) Metroids: Metroid series 9) Creepers: Minecraft 10) Clickers: The Last of Us 11) Deviljho: Monster Hunter 12) Beached Things (BTs): Death Stranding 13) Drowners: Witcher 14) Liquid Metal Slime: Dragon Quest was the intended answer here. It does seem to appear in the free-to-play mobile spin-off game Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, so I'll accept Final Fantasy as well. 15) Jack Frost & Pyro Jack: Persona or Shin Megami Tensei 16) Temmie: Undertale 17) Metal Heads: Jak series 18) Frostbite Spiders: Elder Scrolls (skyrim) 19) Like Like: The Legend of Zelda 20) Vivillon: Pokemon 21) Monoeye: Kid Icarus 22) Biyomon: Digimon 23) Blargian Snagglebeast: Ratchet and Clank 24) Beheaded Kamikaze: Serious Sam
In last place this week is @Th3solution with 9 points, who was the only one to give a correct answer that I hadn't expected, as the Dragon Quest monster Liquid Metal Slime also appeared in an obscure Final Fantasy spin-off game.
