    Had an idea to test your wits.

    Pose a question, the person who answers it, asks the next question.

    Keep it game related, include some classic moments or ones you loved.

    Maybe this will go somewhere , maybe not.


    I will start;

    Question: Name the game featuring my game Favourite quote;

    "Timmy, Timmy, Timmy, Timmmmaaaay, Timmmaaaaaaaay!"

    Edit : If I'm not right - then you need to come up with better questions as per degrassinoel below

    No idea,Grand Theft Auto?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,731 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    this is a good idea, but that question is incredibly vague.


  • Registered Users Posts: 754 ✭✭✭platinums


    True it was a bit niche.
    It's Giants Citizen Kabuto. If you've played the game you know its the famous scene when Timmy is being sacrificed to the Kabuto


    Any comments to refine the game would be welcome as i think it has merit.

    had to look that up as it was too obscure and I never heard of the game


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,911 ✭✭✭SeantheMan


    Jesus I've no clue, esp given the fact it was on GameBoy - I can't even think of an FPS on gameboy

    Also, for the sake of the game, I'll refrain from using google, everyone should do the same. Anyone can google an answer.
    Also, try make the questions general trivia, not some fact from random game you played that noone knows (not referring to the above - the above is an excellent question - just for future questions)

    EDIT : Hahahaha :P Just checked the answer there ! Noone is getting that unless they are some anorak (which I guess most pub quiz players can be at times - useless trivia)
    It looked like that maze game off the early Siemens phones :D , you may have killed this thread :P


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,801 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Well it seems that one was too difficult :) I'll pick an easier one and give the answer:


    Answer:
    Midi Maze/Faceball 2000 on a variety of platforms including the gameboy.

    What was the first Final Fantasy game released in Europe, including spin-offs bearing the FF name?

    Final Fantasy IV I think.

    Same series, which was the first game to show a character bleeding?

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    FFIV was never released in Europe until the PS1 anthology or GBA games well into 2000's. First main series game in Europe was FFVII but there were two games before it, although only one contained Final Fantasy in the title, the other had it's name changed from the US one :P Keep trying.

    As for your question, FFVII.


  • Registered Users Posts: 121 ✭✭ChubbyHubby


    Final Fantasy Tactics?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,731 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    derped - yeah, my bad


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,801 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Final Fantasy Tactics?

    Never even got a European release until the PSP version.

    A clue. One was for the SNES, the other was for the Gameboy. However because of the name change only one has Final Fantasy in the title.

    Final Fantasy Mystic Quest was released over in Europe on the SNES but the name was changed to Mystic Quest. So that leaves the Gameboy games, there's two Gameboy Final Fantasy spin off franchises but only one was released in Europe. But which one? :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,911 ✭✭✭Mr.Saturn


    It's that Final Fantasy Adventure one, isn't it? That went on to be the Mana series?

    Yeah I agree with the above so I'll add a nice and easy(!) question.

    Without googling how many Call of Duty games are there?
    Including expansions, spinoffs and console/handheld/phone versions.

    I know, I know...it's a trick question right ?

    3 !!

    Call of Duty
    Call of Duty 2
    Call of Duty 4 :Modern Warfare

    Would have been the correct answer if I asked how many good Call of Duty games there were :)

    It's not my fault people aren't as awesome as me :P I thought my second one would be a bit more well known considering it's a popular franchise.

    I thought FFIV was marketed as FF with FFVI being FFII. Also thought FFXIII was the first to show a character bleeding. Looks like I was wrong both counts.

    Nope, FFVII was the very first main series FF we got in Europe. I guess you don't remember how much square treated Europe like crap.

    As for FFXIII, I might he wrong with FFVII, But I remember some blood when you take out Sephiroth right at the end. Even still if it wasn't FFVII, FFVIII had Squall bleed in the intro when he got his scar.
