Video Game Sheep, a message board game
 
I'm stuck at work, so I thought I'd bring the Sheep game to DVDTalk.

<b>Rules:</b>
- You want to give the answer that you think will be given most often by other people. For example, if the question is "Name a game that has Mario in the title", a good answer would probably be Super Mario Brothers 3. A bad answer would probably be "Mario Is Missing".

- You get one point for every person that gives the same answer as you, including yourself. For example, if you and ten other people said Super Mario Brothers 3, all eleven of you would get 11 points.

- *** NO USING GOOGLE, WIKIPEDIA, IGN, GAMEFAQS, etc. *** Just use the knowledge in your head.

- No points are given if you are the only person to say an answer.

- *** Private message me your answers. Do not post them in this thread or tell anyone else. ***

- To make it easier for me to score the results, please list your answers one per line and don't number the items.

- *** Answers are due by Monday at 12:00 PM PST. ***


<b>Questions:</b>
1) Name a song in Guitar Hero II.
2) Name a game in which Mario makes an appearance, but the word Mario is not in the title.
3) Other than Brett Favre, name someone who has been on the cover of a Madden football game.
4) Other than Pac-Man, Ms Pac-Man, Super Pac-Man, and Pac-Man CE, name a Pac-Man game.
5) Other than Cloud Strife, name a main playable Final Fantasy character from any of the Final Fantasy games.
6) Name a weapon in the Halo series.
7) Other than Space Invaders, name an Atari 2600 game.
8) Name a game that is part of the Classic NES Series for GBA.
9) Other than Symphony of the Night, name another "Metroidvania" Castlevania game.
10) Other than the first one, name a Ratchet and Clank game.
11) Name a band that has had downloadable content for Rock Band/Rock Band 2.
12) Name a game with great video game music (not counting Guitar Hero, Rock Band, etc).
13) Other than Superman 64 and ET, what is the worst game ever?
14) Other than Video Game talk, name a site that has reviews that you trust.
15) What is the most-anticpated future video game release?

Remember, you want the answer that you think the most people will give, not the answer that you necessarily think is best.

The send email functionality on the board is flakey at best. I'll just delete PMs as I get them, so it should be fine I think.

Alright, I bit. I predict a final score of 14 because I didn't even match myself on one of them, I'm sure :(

I put in my answers. Seems like a fun idea. I had to actually answer "I don't know" for a few questions (a bit embarrassing!), but if that's holding anyone back I encourage you to answer anyway!
