*****Gaming Giveaway*****

Competition winners announced below

After the great piece of generosity from Zico that I benefited from, I thought I'd give away a few bits and pieces that I've acquired.
Thought I'd do it with a twist though and have a little quiz

Below are five partial images of five popular and well known games from over the years. All you have to do is guess them correctly!

Prizes
Dark Void figurine (still boxed and probably better than the actual game

)
Infinite Undiscovery on 360 (promotional copy so no manual)
Mini Ninjas on PS3 (as above, promotional copy)
Order of War on PC with soundtrack and mousemat
Sega Messenger Bag (pretty sure you could fit a laptop in there!)

Ground rules:
Exact answers are needed except in the case of image 3 where series title is appropriate (oooh hint!)
PM your answers to me rather than post in here for obvious reasons. I'll reply asap to confirm I've received your entry.
The competition closes 5pm Friday 12th March, any PMs received after this will NOT be counted.
Competition winners will be announced in this thread at 6pmish Friday 12th March and PMs will be sent out.
The first person to get all 5 correct gets first choice of what prize they want, and so on and so forth until I'm out of prizes.
If no one gets all 5 then most correct answers gets first pick etc.

Any other questions, please do ask in the thread

Having not done a giveaway of any sort, I've probably missed something

One addition to the rules as someone just asked:

You can change your answer if required. As before, answer changes must be done before 5pm Friday.

Thanks

two of them are proving difficult despite the fact i've certainly owned both games

i should have better memories of game titles from my childhood!!

Pumpkinstew · 08-03-2010, 19:31

Finally my wasted youth is proving useful for something

Stroking beard on 2 of them... I feel more stroking is required

Numbers 1 and 2 perchance? I've got the last 3 easily enough, struggling a little on the first 2, though they certainly ring a bell.

Edit: Scratch that, I'm certain I know all of them now, just need to nail the exact game in a couple of places.

Cheers for the prod divine

Knew I'd forget

The results:
Game 1 is Goldeneye for the N64

Game 2 is The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past for the SNES

Game 3 is Streets of Rage 2 for the Sega Megadrive

Game 4 is Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega Megadrive

Game 5 is Street Fighter 2 for the SNES

Winners

I underestimated you lot as there were a lot of correct answers! Knew I should have gone with harder choices and not dropped Turrican and Buck Rogers: Countdown to Doomsday

Anyways, in order of who answered all five correctly fastest:

Leowyatt
Nokkonwud
divine
Pumpkinstew
karbon

Congrats all!

And commiserations to those who were correct but didn't get there in time.

As per the ground rules, the first person who got all 5 correct gets first choice and so on. But if you five winners could list the prizes in order of what you'd most like in this thread, it'll save us all a bit of time

PM me your addresses and I'll get prizes sent out next week.

divine · 12-03-2010, 20:42

Holy monkey faces, I answered after only a few hours, leo and nokkon must have been supremely on the ball!!

Very generous compo though, thanking you kindly, was quite excited waiting for the results!

As for prize order...

Order of War then Sega bag then DV figurine, I don't have a 360 or a PS3 so I wouldn't really get much out of the other two!

leowyatt · 12-03-2010, 21:06

no way

Cheers Jen

any chance you have a pic of the bag? Currently my list is this;

Mini Ninjas/Sega Messenger Bag
Dark Void figurine
Infinite Undiscovery on 360
Order of War on PC with soundtrack and mousemat

NokkonWud · 12-03-2010, 21:16

Woo hoo. Wasn't entirely sure on Sonic 2, but happy with it.
I know which one I want, hopefully Leo doesn't take it first.
