YAY!

Even though I only got 64 odd percent, I loved this quiz! I love game music, and I am constantly making my wife laugh at my dorky-side.

This quiz has two types of questions:

1) Questions I can answer within 2 seconds of their clips.
2) Questions where 3 or more options I have never played.

 

[Bloodstain]

Oh no, ended up guessing a lot...
Second String. -.-

But I really liked that you even put MYST in it. That was unexpected.

Now it says video game music isn't exactly my thing, although I love video game music...oh, I'm so sad.

I'm disappointed with no mention of Castle Crashers.

 

[luckycharms8282]

I did 56%, pretty good seein' I hadnt played over half of those games. It was cool hearing music from games you hadnt played in a while, like Kingdom Hearts.

30th, first try.

Might give it a second try tomorrow, but I'm pretty satisfied at only getting two wrong.

 

[Calamity]

I did...much better than I thought I was going to.

Spoiler

Hollow Bastion was definitely my favorite clip on there

 

[Taawus]

Hardest quiz yet.

 

[Shjade]

17/25

Considering I'd only played maybe 10 of the listed games (that's 10% of the choices), I'd say I did okay.

Was sorta funny on the few questions when the music belonged to a game I'd played. Most of them I listened to the whole clip to try to figure out which of the options it seemed to fit best thematically from what I knew of them (which in some cases was very little - the hell is Patapon?), but on about three of them the music only got about two seconds in before *click* *next*.

Ah, music recognition games. Always fun!

 

[Rogue 9]

80%, not too shabby. I got a few right I wasn't expecting to either. Some I knew after 2 seconds, some I had no idea about.

Pleasantly surprised to have

Spoiler

Phoenix Wright music in there, along with the Mirror's Edge theme (which I prefer to the Portal 'Still Alive', blasphemy though that might be, and the Lylat Wars music made me grin =D

 

[Dexiro]

Haha 72% best score I've had so far on one of these. They were either really easy or I just hadn't played any of the games.

 

[Vortigar]

60%

Haven't played loads of those games, but some I could pick out based on style and feel, which certainly speaks for their power.

Loads of gambles and I'm notoriously bad at gambling. I've had to retry a multiple choice test four times once and still failed. Over two tests I jotted down the other answers I was thinking of and ALL 68 I noted were the other answer. You've got bigger odds of getting hit by lightning.

And yay for no Halo. That thing gets wheeled out way too often.

Would've been cool to see Turrican, Xenon2 or Chaos Engine, but alas.

 

[maddog015]

76%.

Not bad, considering I never played most of the games. But a few of the songs were super easy.

DAAAAAAAYTOOOONAAA!

 

[WittyInfidel]

So many that I have not played...

Still, I could easily identify the ones I had. And I nostalgia-ed so hard.

 

[loremazd]

#4 was the only one I missed, nice choices though, every single one of the rest of the questions I remembered fondly.

It's funny how hearing a little snippet of a vgm can make you want to play the game again.

 

[Zoard]

Got 16/25 which isn't bad considering I'm unfamiliar with most of the game's music they picked.

 

[Mullahgrrl]

I knew exactly wich song it was going to be when I saw diablo among the alternatives.

Nobody can resist that song.

 

[EmzOLV]

Did soooo terribly on this. Figured when I saw it I'd do a lot better, but some of them seemed really abstract.

Good fun though enjoyed that!

%56 is not bad when i based the song choice on best suit but I messed up gow.

 

[HK_01]

I didn't even know around 60% of the games, and only a few of the soundtracks were actually iconic in my opinion. But whatever, I got a badge and I'm happy with that.
