I got 15, Elgin McQueen got 16. It was a tough month, so you all did well to score as high as you did imo.

We both ended up in the canteen scoreboard, though we both thought we'd entered against here. I figured we might get more players here, as most months on the canteen there's only two or three of us.

September Quiz - First Person Shooters

I'm not on time, normally a new quiz starts on the tenth day of a month at the latest... but here we go: right hand on the mouse, left hand on WASD? Or would you rather use the analogue sticks on the controller?

No matter how you prefer to shoot your pixels at other pixels, this month we're looking at video games in a very particular way - via the barrels & crosshairs of assault rifles, plasma cannons and rocket launchers. Ready, aim, fire?

Deadline is Friday 30 September, enter via www.retrogamequiz.com/

Here's the quiz:

September Quiz - Clues #1

The first 35 players have sent in their entries to identify the twentyfive games we are looking for.... No doubt a lot of first-person shooters were released between 1988 and 2023, so this round probably won't be a walk in the park. I wonder how high your answer rate will be?

Here are the first clues:

1) In title number 8, there are always four players.
2) Games 4 and 6 were developed by a pioneer of the fps genre.
3) Picture 7 shows a game that was only released for Xbox and Windows.
4) And last, #11 is a "near sci-fi" entry of a well-known series.

Deadline is Friday 30th September, enter via www.retrogamequiz.com/

September Quiz - Clues #2

Fifty players are already in this round, in a first person shooter that would be a pretty wild death match. The deadline is in a week - don't forget to join in!

Here come the second and final clues:

1) Only 15, 16, 17, 19 and 20 (plus two from the bottom line) are platform exclusive, the rest are available on several devices.
2) Game 14 is the console port of one of the very first multiplayer fps ever.
3) Number 12 is a licensed game based on a movie: you don't just shoot from the fps perspective, you also drive.
4) Numbers 15 and 16 are console games.

Deadline is Friday 30 September, enter via www.retrogamequiz.com/.

September Quiz - Answers & Score

126 players confirm it for me - there really are a hell of a lot of first-person shooters out there, and I could create two more puzzles from this round's incorrect submissions alone! I wonder which game in this round was the most guessed? One of the heavyweights of the shooter scene perhaps, so Halo, Doom, Quake or Half-Life? Nah, it's a newcomer that's not even ten years old. Scroll down and see for yourself which one it is.

Briefly on the bonus question - the background video is a really old Windows screensaver, called "3D Maze". 53% of you guessed that correctly too! There was no bonus point because some of the answers were a bit vague and I didn't want to be unfair.

But now let's start with the answers... first the names of the games as text, then the pictures, then the high score.

1) Halo 3
You got all the Halos wildly mixed up, but it's actually a picture from the third part.
Answer rate: 85%
Other suggestions: Destiny, Haze, Splitgate

2) Superhot: Mind Control Delete
The third entry of the stylish fps with the cool time control feature, and also the most guessed game of this round!
Answer rate: 92%
Other suggestions: Killer 7, Superliminal

3) Team Fortress 2
Who still remembers Valve's "Orange Box"?
Answer rate: 90%
Other suggestions: 4x Serious Sam, Borderlands, Fortnite, XIII

4) Quake 3 Arena
Maybe the answer rate would have been higher if I had taken the Sarge with the cigar as an opponent and not the funny eye?
Answer rate: 67%
Other suggestions: Daikatana, Doom, Serious Sam, Unreal, Unreal Tournament, Duke Nukem Land of the Babes, Fortnite, Silent Hill The Escape, The Legs have Eyes

5) Half Life: Blue Shift
This version of the Half Life story was even available for the Sega Dreamcast!
Answer rate: 91%
Other suggestions: Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, System Shock 2

6) Doom Eternal: the ancient gods 2.
The "Dark Lord", final boss in the second DLC to Doom Eternal.
Answer rate: 65%
Other suggestions: 5x Destiny, Daikatana, Gobots, Metal Hellsinger, Painkiller, Unreal, Warhammer 40k

7) Titanfall
Even before Apex Legends, Titanfall Assault and Titanfall 2 - this game kicked it all off in 2014. Why did you guess "Gears of War" so often?
Answer rate: 42%
Other suggestions: 17x Gears of War, Armoured core, Halo, Hawken, Killzone, Resistance, Unreal Tournament

8.) left 4 dead 2
Answer rate: 48%

Other suggestions: Fallout, Resistance: Fall of Man, singularity, The Darkness

10) Dusk
Answer rate: 49%
Other suggestions: Witches, Medal of Honor, Painkiller, Blood, Clive Barker's Undying, Daikatana, Quake, SiN, Unreal

13) Borderlands: the Pre-Sequel

2 - 15 points - Chinnico
3 - 09 points - necronom

Congratulations to Antiriad2097 for the local lead and Top 20 position.

Say, how much overlap is here with the RetroCanteen board, should I combine both local lists?

Thank you all for playing!

Also, you need to add 'RCU - Retro Gamer Unofficial' to the list at the bottom I'd have done badly at this one!

sephiroth81: "fully automated luxury communism" actually

Its just some interesting potential opportunities for AI and automation to help and free humans in the future, rather than enslave us. We need General Zod to implement it. Jul 29, 2024 19:50:33 GMT

spector: Having an AI prime minister sounds brilliant! After a few months it would use its superior intelligence to take over, then our possessions, our lands, our very lives would be at its mercy. In return, we shall be allowed to live!
