Topic: Push Square Forum Weekend Quiz MK-II

@nessisonett haha but the game is 007 legends!

@RogerRoger cheers for the explanation! I think I may defer to your knowledge on the star wars question too, as I thought it was the first rebel assault! .

I'm sure I did terribly.

@ralphdibny

Really interesting quiz.

@RogerRoger haha well you've got the point for that question anyway but thanks for clarifying, I didn't want to do too many games that I haven't played myself because I can't personally verify the answers but that was one of the ones I haven't played/seen before so I was relying on Google image search to tell me the truth.

Wouldn't it be great if the contestants could just make up the answers for any quiz question though? I'd love to go on Pointless with that power set!

@mookysam I struggled to find a scary screenshot of a polygonal Anne Robinson to reference your final answer but instead I found this really confusing stock photo

@ralphdibny I was watching The Irishman the other day and Romano popped up. Plus, Winstone was in The Departed, so you know. All it would take is for Scorsese to open his contacts book. Could happen!

I don't think we should hold our breath for Ray Charles.

@Gremio108 yeah I can't see that happening...maybe could get Jamie foxx to stand in though

Romano is in that get shorty TV show, I've watched bits of it when it's been on, it's pretty funny, I should watch it from the beginning

@WanderingBullet cheers for having a go, hopefully I get the answers out tonight and do the rankings!

OK, here are the answers to the quiz, I am not going to give out too many half points in case somebody did a jokey answer if it wasn't obvious when they could have had a punt at an answer for a half point but ill note them down next to the answer if there is a half point available

i hope you all enjoyed, i certainly enjoyed some of the funny answers, especially when ive been marking this quiz. well done to everyone!

@BearsEatBeets do you want to do the next quiz as you are third place and RogerRoger and Nessisonett have done quizes already recently

@ralphdibny Brilliant, I’m really chuffed with that! Especially happy I remembered Virtual Hydlide, a truly terrible game with strange graphics. I also had no idea there was a Reign of Fire game and now want to play it!

Not bad at all!

... Didn't realise there was a Area 51 shoot 'em up but least I got the X-Files game right!

A very fun quiz @ralphdibny!

@ralphdibny I’m satisfied with my 12 points. 😄 It was a fun quiz all the same!

@ralphdibny
Thanks matey, great quiz.

@ralphdibny Great quiz, dood.

Third! That's a shocker. As for doing this weekend, unless someone else is eager for a go I'll try and cobble something together on Friday.

@nessisonett I miscounted my tally for yours and had you at 13 and a half until I did a recount 🤦‍♂️ bet you're glad I did the recount haha, I should check everyone's score again when I have time

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy it's actually an on rails lightgun game that I totally have on psx 😎, there is a PS2 game with the same name but I don't know much about it, it might be a third or first person shooter

@Th3solution @WanderingBullet @LieutenantFatman glad you all enjoyed!

@Th3solution Haha, that's certainly one hell of a coincidence. I honestly couldn't think of any other baseball movie, and even worse, I've never actually seen the movie. Seems like I'm not missing out on anything judging by your hatred for it, though! At least we know we're not alone with our highly perplexing brains.

@ralphdibny Phew, I may be last, but at least not by the huge amount of points I was expecting! Now if only Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat weren't reversed.... damnit. Great quiz!

Yikes Anne Robinson is the stuff of nightmares @ralphdibny. My Dad fancied her when she did Watchdog, which just makes me shudder. 🤮 Great quiz. I enjoyed working out what the tracings were!

@mookysam ...he fancied Anne Robinson?

@nessisonett Yeah... we don't talk.

@RogerRoger always a know it all but never insufferable! You're all good, no docked points!

@mookysam while I was have looking for the polygonal Anne Robinson I did stumble across this photo. And while I don't typically like to publicly objectify women I must say she is looking rather foxy:

Also she presented watchdog, anyone who has our consumer rights at heart is golden to me! Matt allwright, Nikki fox, the lot! Maybe I draw the line at rip off Britain though...
