Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted December 23, 2013 Awards Moderator Share Posted December 23, 2013 It's the Son of the Return of the Revenge of the UKFF Christmas Computer Game Quiz part II, the sequel  Whippersnappers may not remember but Christmas never used to start round here until the annual quiz had been published. After a self-imposed hiatus to allow cries of banditry and buggery to calm down, the quiz returns in all it's fiendish glory. Enjoy!  If you want to have a go and post your answers, feel free. But be a chap and SPOILER or SPOILER2 the answers to avoid angry glances in your direction. I'll post the answers at t'other end of the week or thereabouts.  1. Do The HarmonicGenerator Shuffle Oh, that trickster HG. He's moved everything all over the place. These are all anagrams.  1a. Oral H Ache  1b. Attached Lefty One  1c. Bentwoods Lousy  1d. Bata Cedes Lightproof Shrunk Twirls  1e. Nonce Knew Mum Onyx  2. Running With Scissors bAz went mental with some scissors and cut up some of your game covers. What ones did he hatchet?  2a.  2b.  2c.  2d.  2e.  2f.  2g.  2h.  2i.  2j.  3. Overheard on Xbox Live by Astro Hollywood Here are some snippets from homophobic 'Merkin teens overheard on Xbox Live, assuming every game in history is playable over XBLA. What game were they playing?  3a. "Come at me with your uppercuts, come on- oh you've punched my fucking head off. Retard."  3b. "Will somebody give me a friggin' L-shape?"  3c. "I just paid off my mortgage you stupid faggot Raccoon. I don't wanna build another fucking floor and get another fucking mortgage."  3d. "YOU SO QUEER STUPID PINK GHOST."  3e. "An arrow? To the fucking knee? Are you queer?"  3f. "That'll teach you to fucking Nickel my Zone Defense! I TOTALLY SMOKED YOU!"  3g. "Luke fucking Skywalker did the voice for this? And Gimli? And Biff Tannen? Was Nolan North busy?"  3h. "I totally five-starred that on Expert!"  3i. "What kind of boxer wears a faggy vest?"  3j. "This douche was the poster boy before Sonic? His hair is gay. And he looks like a fricking monkey."  4. Powerbutchi's Welsh Lesson In a bid to let the language take over the world, Butch has decided to teach us all some games in Welsh. What are they?*  4a. y ffordd y dwrn ffrwydro  4b. mawreddog is dinas auto lladrad  4c. ddraig dwbl  4d. jet a osodwyd Willy  4e. ynys marw  *These were generated by Google Translate for a laff. I only know "Croeso y Cyrmu" and "pysgod wibbly wobbly" and I'm not even sure they're right.  5. If you like it then you shoulda put a Thing on a Spring on it First work out name of the main character of each of these games. The first initial of each spells out the name of a gaming icon.  5a. Dead Rising  5b. Boulder Dash  5c. Pikmin  5d. Half Life  5e. The Secret of Monkey Island  5f. Heavy Rain  5g. Shenmue  5h. Put 'em together and what've you got...?  6. Only Connect round 1: What's the Connection? What's this? Geek-bothering strumpet Victoria Coren-Mitchell has taken over proceedings, and is now running this quiz Only Connect style.  In the first round, there's a connection between all four of these things. What's the connection?  For full authenticity, stick a post-it note over the next one in the sequence until you shout "NEXT!" Whilst masturbating. Obviously.  6a. Garrador, Dr. Salvador, Ramon Salazar, Osmund Saddler  6b. OG Loc, Nines and AKs, Robbing Uncle Sam, Wrong Side of the Tracks  6c. Iggy, Larry, Morton, Wendy O.  6d. Electro Bolt, Insect Swarm, Security Bullseye, Target Dummy  6e. Lunar Jetman, Underwurlde, Knight Lore, Entombed  6f. Soul Edge, M. Bison, Star Fox, Fatal Frame  7. Only Connect round 2: Fourth in the Sequence Here are three things that occur in a sequence. What's the fourth thing in a sequence?

patiirc Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 3g is SPOILER - Highlight the black box to read Wing Commander IV  I would also accept SPOILER - Highlight the black box to read WCIII . Pat, I'm very pleased someone got that. I can never quite find the level of how obscure I can go.  SPOILER - Highlight the black box to read They were all in IV too, which why went with that. Malcolm McDowell as Tolwyn, Mark Dascascos as Catscratch and John Spencer, hamming it up as Paulsen also crept into IV  Tis one of my faves for it's complete lunacy. Also Casper Van Dien in a blink and youll miss him role   Bloody glad this is back, missed it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Red Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Bravo to everyone who put this together. The anagrams took me forever, the next in the sequence section is bugging me especially the ones that I know what the subject is but just can't recall the next item. The welsh games I've not a hope on (except for the obvious one!) but overall I think I've done pretty well (If I'm right of course)  <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler 1a.

Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted December 23, 2013 Author Awards Moderator Share Posted December 23, 2013 That's a pretty stonking showing Bicurious; I didn't think anyone would get the connecting wall - and you can't Google it either! How hard did you find it overall? Â You should think about 7f a little more. But you're close. 2f is a fraction out, but of the same lineage. Â The Welsh thing was just for larks, the occasional one I could see through because I've come across the word 'ynys' for example. Â I did the whole thing myself but named some of the rounds for different posters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro Red Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 It was a tough old quiz Onyx, again kudos for putting it together.  <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler  The anagrams were the toughest part to work out as I said, although the next answer round really did me in. The connect 4 board was a little tricky, I got the molyneux connection immediately, NES games were also quite straightforward although I had 5 to pick from so thought I might be wrong until I twigged on the female characters one.  Also the box art one I got wrong must be king of fighters then as it's not Fatal fury 2.  Definitely going to be a good challenge for everyone. I think being a 35yr old lifelong gamer (and sort of collector) helped me.   [close spoiler] ");document.close(); Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
