My main issue is still with 3-2 - every other puzzle was glorious, but this one had too many solutions. Example:

Tron: Evolution - the lead character doesn't get sucked into the game world by choice, so the clue works.
Myth - In every single part of Myth, the players tries to escape something. He wasn't there by choice.
GoblIns and GoblIIns (but not GoblIIIns sadly, which was the best of the series) - the poor fellahs need to sort something out that's definitely not by their choice.
SimAnt - something I wouldn't play by choice.

The list goes on and on, and all of them would be legal solutions fulfilling all conditions.
They're not. ;)

Seriously, some of the "hints" people are giving it away here are way, way to obvious.

Saying "it's a big game made by coming out ?" Really guys? I'm pretty bad at the anagram puzzles, but seriously, that's no fun.

If people are looking for unhelpful or obvious, vague hints...

3-1 wasn't too bad, just gotta try saying it in different ways.
3-2 haven't been able to do the anagram ones without someone giving away huge hints.
3-3 easy once you learn the process, but might be tricky if you don't know the different...ahem.. strokes... the hint is talking about.

Oh you jerks, one of those isn't even out yet...

Also, I've a friend who actually does type like that. Made that much easier, as he doesn't look at the keys.

For 3-2,
As someone said earlier, rhymes with juice flecks. What rhymes with flecks that's been in video games? And then there are two titles that could work but only one that fits the puzzle.
...
And as I said to that person, it only rhymes with "juice flecks" if you don't know how to pronounce Latin.
My thoughts exactly. I read that and thought, "That's not how you say it..."

Thephill's hint helped greatly (Thanks, Thephill) to get the answer. (In fact, thanks to everyone who's posted clues during all of this.) With that, I backtracked the solution. I'll try to be clever with my hint...but I make no promises....

3-1 I got right away. It was either divine inspiration or the puzzle was just too easy

3-2 Took me a bit (and a clue or two).

3-3 "Different strokes..." I see what you did there, but I don't see how you went from "D.AKFPACB" to the answer. If someone would be so kind as to explain the steps, I would be greatful.

I HATE YOU 3-1, YOU ASS. TO THE EARTH'S CORE AND BACK. One of my favourite games and I can't believe I didn't get it.
Also, all you guys who quoted the game are being way too obvious.

What - you thought it'd get easier?

I distinctly remember hearing that Day 3 was a piece of cake! :)
The lack of clues is just cruel. Especially for 4-2.

I was a little worried no-one would get it due to the word "machina" not being in the title, but I'm glad I helped you.
