10,000 Ways to Die - It’s HALLOWEEN quiz time!!!

Posted on 29 October 2006 by Tikipod

Welcome to our first ever QUIZ!!! 30 deathly thumbnail images - can you guess all the games?

Now the younger of you might be a tad horrified by the lack of 3D-normalmapped-HDR-rendered images in the piccie above, but fear not - these are snapshots from the great olden days of videogaming.

What is the quiz? - Good question, well it’s based on the knowledge of 2D arcade games. Look at the picture, and work out which games all the spooky thumbnails are from. All we want to know are the names of the games please.

What’s with all the death? - It’s GAMEOVER images, moments from when you have been klobbered by the enemy, moments so painful they should still be burnt into your retinas.

Mummy, it’s so hard! - Yes well it wouldn’t be a quiz otherwise. Watchout for a couple of possible red herrings in there too, if you aren’t 100% sure then I’d advise you go back a double check.

OK, but what do I win in exchange for my genius gaming knowledge?

  • Brand new (unopened) copy of Black and White 2 (PC)
  • LocoRoco Demo (PSP - UMD)
  • Burnout 3 (PS2) PAL
  • Manhunt (PS2) PAL - 18 rated
  • DVD region X (PS2) PAL - lets you play DVDs in full RGB colour
  • Resident Evil 3 - Nemesis (PSOne)
  • UMD Holder

So how long is this competition going to run for? - 1 month. Starts 29th October, last entries must be recieved before the 29th November. Whoever gets the most answers correct is the winner!

How do I enter? - Please state your name and age. Then list each game name followed by the grid reference. E.g. - “RAMPAGE (4,A)” - so that would be the fourth game along the top row.
Finally, email your entry to: competition@theaveragegamer.com
