Peehs: Video Game Edition

Necro

Hai-hai-hai!!

Final game from me before I take off on me holiers for a few weeks.

I mentioned before I wanted to run a Peehs that was entirely based on a certain topic.

Well here - it - is!!



Welcome to Peehs: The Video Game Edition!

All questions will be based around video games that a lot (not all) would play. I've tried to be as inclusive as I possibly can with the questions in order for non-players to give it a rattle if they want. There will be a couple of toughies there though to separate the wheat from the chaff

The premise is simple in Peehs - Answer my questions in the most unique way you can - don't be a sheep!!

Wrong answers will be scored at 1.5 times the highest answer.

Oh - and the stickler...




NO GOOGLE

So without further adieu allow me to present the questions...

1. Name a video game that was made into a movie
2. Name a games console made after 1990
3. Name a character in any version of Street Fighter 2
4. Name a Final Fantasy game
5. Name a FPS (first-person shooter) game
6. Name a city (real or fictional) that featured in a Grand Theft Auto game
7. Name a sports simulation game
8. Name a starring character in a Nintendo game
9. Name a city in The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
10. Name a text-only based computer game.

Entries will close at 8pm on Wednesday, 26th June with the reveal to take place at circa 9.30pm.

Best of luck folks

July????

Necro

Oops

quickbeam

Entered. Just cos I don’t wanna break the streak as I’ve entered all others. But I know nothing about games so just here to make everyone else look good.

Necro

I've changed the date in the new game notification thread - have July and holidays on the brain at the moment apologies folks :pac:

Pretzill

Entered: I must admit these games are a little addictive even if I'm closer to heeps in sheep and vice versa

I've entered! God knows why. I must be addicted after those other two games!

That's a lot of button mashing you're doing there tusk :pac:

I was praying for a peehs. Then you go and add in my two favorite things. Games and not googling in these forum games.

Excitement overload.

Call that a video games quiz? Not a single question about solitaire or minesweeper! :mad:

They have transcended the genre as bastions for the work slackers

Well I haven't got a clue, but I'm going to enter anyway!
I won one, maybe I'll get the wooden spoon this time

Some toughies in there. Definitely going to be taking a penalty hit or two I think! Hoping I can be unique in other answers to make up for it.

fixXxer

I can already smell my victory.

osh

Spoiler to some answers there

I messed up with one of mine. Been so long since I played Skyrim I was convinced the only answer I could think of was actually in Witcher 3 instead.

tusk

Can you resubmit in this?

I watched my husband play Skyrim for at least a year, can I remember anything about it? NAAAAAAAHHHHHHH. He'll be so disappointed.

I havent played much consoles in the past 10 years but I put insane hours into Skyrim and am struggling to remember anything hopefully it comes back to me

The only games I've ever played were Tekken and Mario Bros .

Just as well the boys here loved games though

I can't believe that you've never played tetris.

Mam of 4

Ooh , sorry sKeith , forgot Tetris !
When I think of video games , I forget about the hand held consoles most of the time tbh .:o


ETA ,
So does that mean hand held console games are included in the questions ?

Yep. Easily my highest time sink game of all time. I just went with the first one that came into my mind

osh

Think they announced the next game in the elder scrolls series recently. Probably be a few years away yet mind.

Twas actually its predecessor Oblivion that was my highest timesink. Got the edition with all the DLC.... bloody brilliant.

Although Witcher 3 and GTA V come pretty damn close timesink wise tbh.

Yeah they're still milking the online game for all it's worth so will likely be another 3 years at the least imo.

Yeah same here! Ended up just making the answer up.

I have no business entering this tbh! But sure it's just a bit of fun and I think the wooden spoon is pretty coveted too!

Maybe I’m being greedy or am a victim of the instant gratification culture we have become but the lead time on some of these sheep/peehs/heeps games seems very long

Do we really need a week for 10 questions?

Nah probably not but I'm working till Monday and then need time to tabulate the data

Necro

15 entries so far, keep em coming folks

tusk

Sorry for the hijack, but wasn't sure where to ask this and I couldn't see any info...

Are there any rules around when or who can create sheep / Peehs games?

Have a couple of ideas I'd like to do.

Nope, if you have an idea just whack up a sign up thread!

osh

Anyone can start one. Work away.

Pm rikand for the thing he uses to track the entries and calculate the results.

No need, I've got it right here

Green&Red asked the question about the scorer that was used, The Sheepulator!

This is the one that I used to run this game and its free download for anyone that wants to take it and run Sheep games of their own. Instructions are included. https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showpost.php?p=53320056&postcount=82

This is also the reason why I asked for Unnumbered lists to be pm'ed into me. Lists with numbers mean I have to edit the answer files that get added into the sheepulator. A minor inconvenience, but an inconvenience nonetheless lol


If anyone downloads it and wants to try it out and has any questions, my door is always open. But I may not be in, so bear with me

Has anyone tries Skyrim VR yet? It's awesome.
