El Stormo's Game Quiz, Year Two, Day Five!

Post » Tue Nov 30, 2010 10:51 pm

True, this round is pretty hard, but there's people scoring very respectably, so it's not THAT difficult.


It isn't really a question of difficulty, but of having played the right games. I'll get any Bioware ones, but not any Final Fantasy ones. :shrug:

I got a few correct answers purely by recognising 2 or 3 names. Hell on one of them I got the right reason, albeit the wrong answer, from only recognising one.

Unless you have precognition and we all did very poorly today, I think that may be incorrect.

Heh, whoops.

In every list, there's characters from all kinds of games, except one or two. The more you know, the easier the question becomes, but you'll still have to find the link.

Exactly. It's really not that difficult :)

DAY FIVE: ANSWERS

1. Which does not belong, and why?

Geralt
Foltest – he’d be outraged to be put in a list with a bunch of Witchers, being the King and all.
Berengar
Lambert
Eskel
Vesemir


2. What do these characters have in common?

Auron
Nines Rodriguez
Alex Mercer
Emperor Sun Hai
Polito
Captain Devin Ross

They spend the majority of the game dead - Auron is already dead at the beginning of the game, but hasn't 'moved on', Nines is a vampire, Alex Mercer was never really Mercer at all (the real one is dead before the game starts), Emperor Sun Hai is secretly a ghost, Polito was long dead, but impersonated by SHODAN, and Devin Ross dies at the beginning of the game, and has to play the rest of the game as a possessing spirit.

3. Which of these characters does not belong?

Minsc – he's the only non-romanceable one (and thank God for that!)
Ashley Williams
Sky
Morrigan
Carth Onasi
Annah


4. What do these characters have in common?

Fran
Jak
Link
Chen, errr, I mean, CHEEEEEEEEEEEN!
Wario
Felicia
Magus

Many of you were searching it way too far. It’s the simple answer that they all have funny ears - Magus, Wario, Jak and Link have pointy elf ears, Fran has bunny ears, Chen and Felicia have cat ears.



5. Which of these does not belong?

Redeemer
Singularity Cannon
BFG-9000
Chaingun Cannon – not the strongest in the game, and not mapped to 0
Dark Matter Gun
Thunderbolt

Redeemer - Unreal Tournament, Singularity Cannon - Unreal II, BFG-9000 - not even going to explain that one, Dark Matter Gun - Quake 4, Thunderbolt - Original Quake


6. What do the following characters have in common?

Abigail Black
Juhani
Wanderer Meiyuan
Arcade Gannon
Revolver Ocelot
Abu'l Nuquod

All these characters are homosixual. Abbey is the butt of Delgado's lisbian jokes, Juhani gets frisky about the female PC, Meiyuan is stated in his description to 'like goodlooking men', Arcade Gannon informs the PC he's homosixual right at his introductory dialogue, but you have to be quick, or you'll miss it, Ocelot has a thing for Snake, and Abu'l Nuquod is hated and outcast by his fellow muslems for his orientation.


7. What do the following characters have in common?

Jane Shepard
Bastila Shan
Samus Aran
Fall-From-Grace
Naomi Hunter

All voiced by the not unawesome Jennifer Hale


8. Which does not belong, and why?

Ifrit
Fukiwara no Mokou
Ignus
Sub-Zero – Ice-based, the others all attack (or are aligned) with the fire element
Qara
Lucca



9. Connect both columns - what are the following characters scared out of their minds of? Get at least four right.

Rikku is scared of lightning
Naked Snake fears bats
Lucca is afraid of frogs
Francis has... umm... insulaphobia (he just can’t swim, actually)
Luigi is scared to death of ghosts
Guybrush Threepwood is afraid of porcelain

10. What do these characters have in common?

Paul Denton
Sarevok Anchev
Reks
Andrew Ryan
Irina Sykes
Jecht
Nero

All directly related (brother, sister, father, or half-brother) of the main character - Paul Denton is JC's brother, Sarevok is the Bhaalspawn's half-brother, Reks is Vaan's brother, Andrew Ryan is Jack Ryan's father, Irina is Rush's sister, Jecht is Tidus' father and Nero is Dante's brother.
