Name That Game: 2011 Edition

Recommended Posts

I can't think of many other games where the world bends upwards like that.

 

How did you know it was the world? It could be a road, a tower, a stone or something else, but out of context. I mean, I couldn't notice it was Halo just by looking at it. After you guessed it, I still couldn't figure out how you immediately knew it.

 

Also, lol, this round is just passing me by. Still, I'll try:

 

9. Super Street Fighter 4

11. Wario Land 3

14. Big Brain Academy

15. Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks (I have a feeling it's a DS game, at least)

 

EDIT: Wait, consoles only? Awwwww....

All wrong sorry.

 

Technically, a handheld is still a console! I just meant there weren't any obscure PC, Spectrum or Amiga games. All are pretty recent..ish

 

As clues - I will provide ONE of the consoles that the game has appeared on, it may be exclusive, or multiplatform, so if I say it was on Wii, that doesn't necessarily mean it didn't appear on other formats.

 

4. Xbox 360

9. PS3

11. GBA

14. DS

15. Xbox

 

To make it even easier, TWO of the above games appear one after the other somewhere on the N-E forums, Cube should know them

9. Little Big Planet 1!

11. WarioWare Inc.

 

Though they probably aren't correct...

Sorry no.

 

Ok, here are some better clues...

 

 

4 and 9 appear together on the Other Consoles board

11 is not a Wario game, but it's a poster in a theatre

14 is probably the most obscure game of this round. I'd give you a clue, but first, it's break time.

15 was a highly anticipated debut game of sorts from a well known developer. But it was a big disappointment.

Then 11 has to be Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.

 

And 15 is Grabbed by the Ghoulies.

Your last round was nice, Dog-amoto. I vote for that one.

 

I have a round prepared, but I'll wait for next month.

It only lets me post 50 images per post, so here's a couple more

 

Ok, here's the next round. It's another themed round, and there's 2 points awarded per game.

 

The rules are simple. All these games have appeared in films. I have also provided a picture of a minor character from the film they appeared in. Your job is to name and match the game with the character from the film the game appeared in.

 

One point as usual for the game. And a bonus point for the film. Oh, and one is a faux game. No bonus points for it though

 

1. Karate Champ +1 Cube

Hard to decide between Magnus and RedShell... But I think I'll go with Magnus.
