Videogame Cliches Quiz

[Wodan]

I scored 90%, with 9 of 10 correct on The Escapist's Videogame Cliches. Take this quiz [/quizzes/view/140-Videogame-Cliches]

Yeah not so much about cliches as it is general knowledge

Pretty interesting quiz trivia wise, but...

Not what I was expecting, and pretty disappointing.

Cliches exist as almost running jokes of a medium. At least to those who have a wide consumption of that medium. Sure it's interesting to know which movie franchise was the first to appear as a video game, but it's not really a cliche. It might be more of a cliche to say that video game adaptation of movies are TERRIBLE.

That's almost lost its impact because it's basically always true.

5/10.

Those were trivia, not cliches.

 

[Spawny0908]

number 33 out of 800 and something. I feel good.

 

[Aeshi]

90% and Rank 15 in 1 minute 4 seconds in one try.

Not bad.

Those weren't cliches -_- and is there a really old Rango I'm unaware of? Or do you mean the tie in game to the movie that came out 2 weeks ago?

 

[Sennz0r]

7 out of 10 and I'm fine with that. Most of those I didn't even know, so there!

If you care about your spot on the leader board, make sure you use your other account to find the answers to the questions, and then use your real account to trick people into thinking you spent less than two seconds answering each question.

Enjoy!

Sure, everybody knows the top people on the leader board are doing something like this, but isn't it against the forum rules to have two accounts? I assumed up to this point the staff was simply ignoring this fact, but if you are aware of it, may I ask why nothing is done about it? I know it's just a silly quiz, but if people are circumnavigating the forum rules in such an obvious fashion, isn't it in your best interest to take care of it? Just wondering.

I got about 50% right, these weren't really cliches though... D:

I'm hoping you guys do another personality quiz sometime soon though, those are fun!

 

[Museli]

2 wrong, I'll bet one was that bloody Star Wars question. Seriously Star Wars, get out of my pop culture. I'm not going to watch you, no matter how much you pester me - just go away. /shakefist

Damn it! I hate it when you won't let me see which ones I got wrong. Still 70%, not too shabby. I'm pretty sure I got the question about World of Warcrack wrong since I've never played it.

it;ll probably take a while considering MM is starting today. And we already had to pause the voting. Be patient young padawan.

Patience?! WTH is that? And why did it take you so long to respond?

 

[Dumb_Joe]

6/10 for me but considering i havent played a lot of the mentioned games i say i got lucky

 

[Stryc9]

What happened to the thing on the quizzes that lets you see which questions you got wrong?

 

[gibboss28]

These were Clichés?

 

[Frylock72]

This isn't as much a quiz about gaming cliches as it is about general gaming knowledge :S

This. I am disappoint.

 

[SturmDolch]

80%... I think that's a new high.

And massive props for mentioning one of my favourite games growing up, Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds.

Long live my geocities website I made in a summer camp about it! I think I still have it somewhere, stored on 2 or 3 floppies.

 

[Mimssy]

Edit: also the first time I saw the game for this quiz I thought it said "Glitches" and thought the 404 was kind of funny

Same here. I was a bit perplexed for a second.

 

[Th3_Gus]

I think that the author of this quiz should look up the definition of "Cliche". This quiz was terrible.
