Yes you need to put "The" to be correct.

Post by: Kale on February 29, 2008, 01:18:17 AM: 4% lol

Post by: A vicar in a tutu on February 29, 2008, 01:22:50 AM: I got 30%
jeez.
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: PFG9000 on February 29, 2008, 04:01:28 AM: I call BS! Only 24%. :( I got the following right: 8, 9, 10, 23, 24, 32, 34, 35, 39, 45, 48, & 49. The rest I've never heard. For my excuse, I'm going to appeal to the fact that I wasn't allowed to own any mainstream systems until 1997. :P

I'd like to see the answer key, because I wonder how many of these games I've actually played. Hell, I've never even heard of "Psycho Fox."

Post by: Azmodan on February 29, 2008, 04:17:40 AM: I got a healthy 32%...

Fun test.
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: erimocard on February 29, 2008, 01:28:23 PM: I think, I got those results, because most of the games were never released to germany. At least I hope, that is. D:
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: Larzuk on February 29, 2008, 03:20:21 PM: I got 26% but theres about 14 songs Ive heard before but cant think of the names.

Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: Clara E. Leet on March 01, 2008, 02:32:18 AM: 16% but there were about four other songs I recognized but couldn't recall the exact game title.
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: Mr Sven on March 01, 2008, 12:03:16 PM: 30% but how do you find out the answers? 37 or 47 is bugging me... im sure its set in the wild west that level... something like tiny toons or a mikey mouse game... lol some kind of cartoony platformer anyway.

Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: Darth Cariss on March 12, 2008, 05:11:50 AM: Only got 14...
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: Slayer on March 12, 2008, 10:18:49 AM: 36% on the second quiz. Also worth trying, if you ask me.
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: Mr Sven on March 12, 2008, 04:30:27 PM: Gah! quiz number 2... i'm sure ecco the dolphin is in there somewhere but i must have typed it wrong.
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: PFG9000 on March 13, 2008, 03:23:02 AM: Okay, I really want to see the answers now. The second quiz must have even more obscure titles than the first. I grew up with the Atari 2600 and NES (wasn't allowed to buy my own NES until the late 90s, but I still played a ton of the classics when they came out). I never got into Genesis much, even now that I own one, so perhaps that's why I'm scoring so low. I don't know too many RPGs either.

I got the following on the second quiz (highlight):

1 - Kirby's Adventure
6 - Contra 3
14 - Thunderforce 4
18 - Final Fantasy 3
20 - Megaman 2
22 - The Legend of Zelda
23 - Super Mario World
38 - Excitebike
49 - Metroid

Yeah, a lowly 9. They rate me a Playstation-era gamer. I've played far less Playstation than NES and SNES (and Jaguar and Lynx and Atari 2600, for that matter). Why isn't there a single Atari tune in here?

Yeah, that one gave me problems. I'm not sure if the way I typed it here is the correct way, but you may need to put IV at the end of the first Turtles.

Post by: DarkLavos on March 16, 2008, 02:07:05 PM: I got 38% on the 2nd quiz, not a big improvement over the first one.
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: Mr Sven on March 17, 2008, 04:43:22 PM: a little dissapointed that there are only tunes up to the 16 bit era there. ( At least im sure there was no PS or n64 tunes hidden anywhere )

I was kinda looking forward to pointing out shadow of the collossus' "swift horse" or some tunes from command and conquer.
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: DarkLavos on March 19, 2008, 09:29:06 PM: does any one know from what game number 40 of the 2nd quiz is from?
Title: Re: Classic Videogame Music Quiz
Post by: JR on April 03, 2008, 08:52:23 AM: I got 40% on the first, 36% on the second. The Sega ones killed me.
