A Video Game ID challange
 
Ok, found this challange. There's 56 games hidden in this image, and the challange is to identify them all.

I got 35 games here, and I wondered: What would NPF do on it?

And perhaps you all could help with some of the harder ones, like the cobra in the soup bowl. >_>

Super Cobra, lawl, get it, Souper Cobra.

Really it's just a bunch of riddles, fun riddles, but most of em have nothing to do with the games at all.

Loyal 03-31-2010 09:13 PM

That's the point of the exercise. It's naming the titles of the games with visual puns

Also, I've never heard of "Super Cobra" before.

Very old game. It's called that because it's about the helicopter of the same name. Only know it from Starcade, not even sure what systems it was on(ATARI?)

Edit: Yes, I know it's an arcade title, just know it was released on home too.

I had the solutions spoiled for me in the Tron thread, and I didn't count how many I got before that. Oh well.

BitVyper 03-31-2010 10:58 PM

I'm at 37 so far. My friend is at 48, and she doesn't even know half the games.

Jagos 03-31-2010 11:00 PM

Wow, only 11...

Geminex 03-31-2010 11:36 PM

I got 13 in 5 minutes, but that's probably the extent of my knowlege. I hadn't played any of the games I got, barely knew what they were, so it's good enough, I guess.

Kyanbu The Legend 03-31-2010 11:39 PM

14, that's all I was able to get. I know one of them is Sonic but it just doesn't want to count it. It's that bee robot holding a blue emerald.

Loyal 03-31-2010 11:44 PM

That's "Bejeweled".

For what it's worth until Flare told me I thought it was a Beedrill.

BitVyper 03-31-2010 11:47 PM

Yeah, I'm at 45 currently, but no Sonic anywhere. Goldeneye was hard.

I hate this thing now. I mean, some of the puns were ok, but...
God.

This thing is starting to get frustrating now.

BitVyper 04-01-2010 12:12 AM

Just have some patience. It's like a crossword.

Toastburner B 04-01-2010 12:14 AM

I'm at 28. Two or three I got form here, so more like 25.

I know I should know some of these. That Rocket with the " ' " and the "&" over the side is going to make me kick myself in the head when I figure it out, I know it.

EDIT:

Okay, I'm maxed at 35.

Loyal 04-01-2010 12:17 AM

Hint: It's not called a "rocket", per se.

Wait till you figure out #46, near the upper right corner. You haven't SEEN the punnage this thing resorts to.

Though Bee-jeweled was actually slightly worse. I have no idea what spy hunter is, never heard of it, so that was fairly impersonal.

Also, I got the rocket. Missile , &. Missile Comma&. Missile Command

You really just need to think like someone who loves horrible puns. Like Prems.

Spy Hunter was one of those awesomely hard games on the original NES.

If I remember correctly, there was some kind of PS2 or PS1 game of the same name, but that doesn't count.

Jagos 04-01-2010 02:46 AM

Crappy remakes for the PS1 never do.

*Remembers Centipede...*

*shudders*

The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk 04-01-2010 06:25 AM

Yeah I had these spoiled in the Tron thread as well. I got about 25 before I gave up and looked up the answers. Most of the ones I didn't get were games I'd never heard of, or were just completely stupid puns that nobody would ever get, looking at YOU "Fallout".

Oh, come on. That one was a gimme.

Grimpond 04-01-2010 08:26 AM

Ugh, found 20 fairly easily, now it's getting tougher.

Jagos 04-01-2010 09:53 AM

Got to 30

Spy Hunter was a bitch that pisses me off. I'm throwing her out the Fallout window.

krogothwolf 04-01-2010 12:01 PM

So got em all, some are evil EVILLL!!!!

It has to do with Encom and Kevin Flynn

Jagos 04-01-2010 12:05 PM

The ones with the hot air balloon and the submachine guns, + the crook throwing a bomb over the building, I feel I should know but don't...

Thanks.

Drownball-Champ 04-02-2010 08:41 PM

I was able to get 42/56.

I wasn't able to figure out 5, 7, 8, 13, 15, 16, 21, 23, 25, 30, 32, 43, 44, 50.

[EDIT] Gah! Just looked up the answers and about half of those were obvious. Now I feel stupid.
