Wow, hurts when I feel like I should get the clue that others did on 1 and 3. Oddly got 2 and 5 easy lol.
Follow the instructions on 1, its quite obvious when you realize about it.
Thanks alot. It was too obvious. Helps to write it down. Only 3 & 4 now.
Same here, and I've got some people saying the clue for 4 is helpful, others saying it isn't. I'm thoroughly confused.
Think of a recent game where you wouldn't wear something made of linen and lace.
Every shooter ever? This isn't a hint. Thats like saying pick a number between 1 and 100, Hint: Its not 7. Call me picky but I like my hints to be helpful. I say this now, when I figure the answer out I will probably spend the next five minutes just mashing my face into the keyboard.

Ok that brings it down to 40 some titles. :)
A building where you wouldn't wear linen and lace then.

That's as obvious as I can make it without giving it away.

I'm thinking as hard as I can, but can only get No.5!

I think I haven't played the other games, because I have thought of loads and haven't thought of the right answers!!

Any clues for 1-4? Are they old games or is anything associated with them?

Hmmm... he seems to have customised his gun.

If you read this and found this useful then please give me clues for 1-4 (I scratch your back you scratch mine :)

Do let me know when the face mashing takes place. I was the same when I didn't get it at first.

When two words seem to do, push them together to form this clue.
I get the

The trick to this one is writing down the letters and seeing every possible word they make.
3 and 5 are the only ones I have though.

All the numbers are less than 26, The clue is to match the numbers to something then mix them up to fix it.

Okay, I give. Number 3 is pissing me off.

A slight hint anybody?
The numbers are part of a coded anagram, you have to figure out what letter each number stands for.

Sorry if this isn't very helpful, it's hard to give clues on this puzzle without giving too much away.

Gah, number 4 is killing me. I'm good with anagrams but its hard to look past the words that are already there.
Perhaps you need a mask?
Thanks a lot. I had entered that title earlier but it said it was wrong but it turns out I had the name wrong. Confused it with something else. Thanks Root.

Finally got number 4. The hint given... sort of makes sense in retrospect, but it doesn't if you're trying to figure out the title. The same goes for the string of words you have to work with.

If you need a hint:

Maybe check out some the recent game reviews [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/reviews/]?
