This Quiz Is a Battlefield

War. War never changes - and neither does our fascination with the battlefield. Whether it's a dogfight in the skies over Europe, or a dense jungle on an alien world, there's something about military conflict that never ceases to capture our imaginations.

This week's quiz is all about wars in videogames - some fictional, some not. As always, you can take as long as you like, but remember: Your overall time will affect your position on the leaderboards.

Grab a weapon and prepare to fight! (Take the quiz [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/quizzes/view/38].)

And yet you only got 70%?
I managed to scrounge up a 100% after my fifth go. Wooo, 7th on the list!

[WolfLordAndy]

I was a bit let down that there was no BF/BF2 questions... guess there was a Bad Company one :/

 

[GothmogII]

Neat...one question almost got me though, the 'Silent Hunter 2' question. It's not -exactly- the thing the answer supplies, but close enough I guess.

 

[Quick Ben]

Woo! Currently holding 3rd place. I got to admit I took a few educated guesses though...
