@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Eeeee! A wild quiz appeared!

Q1) That'd be Demon's Souls.
Q2) Let's go with true.
Q3) I believe it was A: Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex on PS2, which I think I know because of a demo disc (we're talking about demo discs a lot today!).
Q4) Am gonna be tactical and say Fargus the Jester, from Pandemonium.
Q5) Magic 8 Ball says "ask again later" so I'll try true again.
Q6) Oh, um... Hyperscape...?
Q7) Surely that's The Last of Us, Part II for voicing somebody called Abby. Don't tell me they also nominated Troy Baker for the same award?!
Q8) I flipped a really weird, four-sided coin and it said A: Nexomon Extinction.
Q9) Not an igloo. Final Fantasy XI Chocobo Battle Tactics Compendium.
Q10) It's now time for a false, methinks.
Q11) Sounds like we're dealing with DOOM Eternal, Cyberpunk 2077, Yakuza: Like a Dragon and 13 Sentinels (in that order).
Q12) Best I could get out of that was "Registry Fish B.K." which is so pathetic, it doesn't even deserve a spoiler tag. Although now I really wanna play it.

Huge thanks for doing this! That was tons of fun!

Here’s my feeble attempt:


1. Demon’s Souls ...despite the improper use of the apostrophe. The more grammatically correct “Demons’ Souls” must not have looked quite as cool on the box art. ...Unless the game is actually about one demon who has many souls.
2. I never heard about the rhythm game, so I’d say ... False?
3. C) Crash Twinsanity?
4. Not sure ... is that from Sackboy: A Big Adventure? His name would be Leatherman.
5. False
6. Uh.... Legend Warriors Battle Ex
7. The Last of Us Part II, Abby, ...Troy Baker?
8. C) The Pokémon game
9. Final Fantasy 8 was remastered this year. (Final Fantasy 7 was remade)
10. True?
11. I) DOOM Eternal, II) Cyberpunk 2077, III) Yakuza Like a Dragon, IV) 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim
12. Brig Rye Fighters? Sounds like a Nintendo series.

Could have done worse, I guess. Pretty sure I got #1 correct.

1. Demon's Souls
2. True
3. Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex
4. He's called Mavis and is from Sainsbury's Covid Queue Adventures
5. False, I think there's only been one game in the new arc
6. Death in Paradise
7. The Last of Us: Part II as Abby. The other nominated actor was surely the one that plays Ellie, but I can't remember her name!
8. Nexomon Extinction.
9. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
10. True!
11. I - Doom Eternal; ii - Cyberpunk 2077; iii - Yakuza Like a Dragon; iv - 13 Sentinels
12. Kirby Fighters 2

1. Demon Souls
2. True
3. C
4. Looks like an enemy out of Crash 4 so I’m going with that.
5. True
6. Watch Dogs Legion???
7. The Last Of Us Part 2
8. A
9. Final Fantasy VII
10. False, pretty sure it was a corgi not a cat.
11. I. DOOM Eternal
II. Cyberpunk 2077
III. Pretty sure it’s the newest Yakuza game but I’m not certain
IIII. Another game with cyber in the name and it plays like enter the Gungeon, but I can’t remember
12. Kirby Fighters 2

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Let's tackle this sucker

1. Demon's Souls
2. Surely that's false. Although I wouldn't put it past them
3. I'll go Twinsanity
4. Jesters are an underused and underappreciated sort, in gaming and in life in general. This guy is the baddie from Sackboy's Big Adventure, but I haven't played it yet, so I don't know his name. I imagine it's Angela Lansbury
5. True? Sounds plausible
6. Assassin's Creed: Let's Riot
7. Hmm. It's probably The Last of Us Part II. Another game I've not got around to yet. I've heard the name Abby mentioned a lot in the increasingly tiresome comments sections. And the other voice actor? Er, Nolan North?
8. Nexomon Extinction, because I like the name.
9. Final Fantasy VII: Look At Cloud's Hair!!!!
10. True. Please be true.
11.
I. 2020: The Videogame
II. Cyberpunk 2077
III. Yakuza: Like A Dragon
IV. Crash Team Racing Remastered
12. Shirty Biker GF released in March 2020. The GF stands for 'great fun'

Thanks for the tag, great quiz. Now to sit back and await my inevitable victory.

Good job, Parappa. You can go on to the next stage now.

@Th3solution In the Demon's Souls apostrophe debate, I'm with you, but as my mate pointed out when we played it, defeating one boss did give us about 20,000 souls, so maybe your many-souled demon theory is correct?

Huntin' monsters erryday.

HallowMoonshadow

Thank you everyone for taking part

Here are the answers to the weekend quiz.


Question 1. Demon's Souls was the name of the remade PS3 classic for PS5.

Question 2. It was True. Kingdom Hearts DID in fact have a rhythm game come out this year called Melody Of Memory which retells the story so far.

Question 3. It was A. The Wrath Of Cortex.

It's quite similarly titled to the second Crash game Cortex Strikes Back. Crash Twinsanity was the 5th main series title, we don't really talk about Crash of the Titans and The "Thumpin' Wumpa Islands" (Or something along the lines of that) was the name of the Crash level that was put into the last Skylanders game before crash officially came back with the N.Sane Trilogy.

Question 4. This was actually a shot from Sackboy: A Big Adventure and the villian in question was Vex. If you were observant and read my forum signature to see "Fargus The Jester" there... you fell into trap (An unintended one as it's been there for about half the year) as Pandemonium! is a 24 year old PS1 platformer.

Question 5. This is False. There's only one game they've put out in Japan in The Legend Of Heroes franchise since Cold Steel IV's release over there 2 years ago.

Question 6. I'm surprised anyone remembered Hyperscape... Because I don't think Ubisoft does 😅

Question 7. Laura Bailey was of course nominated for her role in The Last Of Part 2 as Abby. The third part of this question seemed to trip most of you up however... It was Ashley Johnson (The voice of Elly) whom was also nominated for best performance not Troy Baker as Joel.

Question 8. Untitled

2020 was a pretty strong year for monster taming games though with a number of different titles!

Question 9. This question was supposed to be about Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles Remastered. FFVIII Remastered did release last year digitally... But did get a physical PS4 release this year? I completely forgot about Final Fantasy VII Remake that released this year too even if that isn't a remaster as it does completely change things...

... Basically what I'm saying is everyone gets a point as this question got way more complicated then I was expecting and it won't change the end result!

Question 10. False. Because he's a Pembroke Welsh Corgi not a cat

Untitled

Question 11.

I. With the talk of the Slayer and demons... The first was quite clearly DOOM: Eternal

II. With body modifications, implants and outlaw mercenaries... Cyberpunk2077 was the title being talked about here.

III. Yakuza: Like A Dragon was sneakily being talked about in this part.

IV. And finally the newest Vanillaware title 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim was the last game to be talked about in this question.

Question 12. Sadly British Fry Keg is not the upcoming epic Shirty Biker GF by Gremio Games... It is in fact Kirby Fighters 2


And so to the scores.

Unfortunately in last place despite a terrific effort was @ralphdibny with 7 Points
@Gremio108 just scraped ahead with 8 Points in 8th
@Th3solution came in 7th with 10 Points
@RogerRoger & @Blooper987 are in joint 5th with 12 Points a piece
@mookysam stormed into 4th with 15 Points
@cimsontadpoles & @nessisonett come joint second with 16 Points
but @WanderingBullet with 17 Points comes first.

Congrats everyone and I hope you all enjoyed what was both the last quiz of 2020 and the first of 2021!

Anyone wish to volunteer to do the next quiz?

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy thanks again! I will do better in a quiz one day! I was kind of thinking that about Crash Bandicoot actually, I guess Cortex Strikes back is named after the second star wars film Empire Strikes back and the wrath of cortex is named after the second Star Trek film The Wrath of Khan!

See ya!

Oof, pipped by one point! How many times has that happened now 😂

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy I will take that mid-table result, thank you! Considering half of my answers were based on highly scientific calculations (i.e. flipping a coin, shaking a Magic 8 ball, etc.) I think I ended up doing pretty darn well. Awesome quiz, thanks for putting it together!

You know I never even noticed the similarties to the second star wars/trek films there with the Crash game names @ralphdibny 😄

If it's not a star wars branded magic 8 ball (A BB-8 ball?) I'll be mighty disappointed @RogerRoger

You did exceptionally well @crimsontadpoles... I'm sure you'll get one eventually!

Thanks again everyone for taking part and enjoying it!

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Ah, then I'm sorry to disappoint... although you're right, a Magic BB-8 ball should totally be a product... because (shock of all shocks) there isn't an official one!!

@RogerRoger thank you!

1.i feel like I should know this one but I don't so I'll just say umm, Rayman?
2. I had no idea until I read Nintony so I'll guess D!
3. False - I think there's a character called Fei Long in the larger series but I don't think he's a boss
4. (I don't know the characters names or probably even the games so I will say random words and hope for the best) a) sphinx and the cursed mummy. B) Muscles McGandalf C) the willy dragon d) anime gandalf
5. Luigi
6.i don't know, I'll go with a) Krogan
7. Not sure, probably... True?
8.track 1 - movie based game (isn't this the start of Indiana Jones?)
Track 2 - surely another movie based game (I can't imagine this being in a movie)
Track 3 - it's gota be another movie based game (hasn't it?! The first thing I thought of was that song "Shuttupayaface")
Track 4 - this one sounds like it's most likely to be from an actual movie but I couldn't say which one. So I'll just guess a game based movie!
9. GTA 4 (Grand Theft Auto IV)
10. I've gotta guess D) the star wars quote, doesn't really sound like something Duke Nukem would parody... I feel like I should know this though with how much I used to play Duke Nukem 3D as a kid! The only quotes I can think of are from They Live (bubblegum) and Army of Darkness (hail to the king)
11. True! I remember my brother's mate coming around asking me to scratch his disc and then sniff his disc......of FIFA 2001
12. A) uhhhh what?! I'll guess The Princess Diaries or something, totally stumped lol
B) Rainbow X Playdate: USA!: The Videogame (aka Nintendo had a discount on its Seal of Quality that year)
C) I'll say Mary Kate and Ashley Sweet Sixteen even though I have the game on my shelf and this isn't the cover art for it
D) I have seen clips of this game before, maybe on AVGN or something, I have got no idea what it's called though. Ahh hell what is it... something beginning with B maybe? Bonkers, Berserk? I'll go with Beleaguered

See ya!
