Anyway folks. I'm away in Paris from Thursday-Sunday. Unless the next task is submission based, I am probably out in 9th. Even it is, I am only around on Wednesday night. Fingers crossed that any deadline will be on Monday. :(

As Clarkman might not be able to participate, is it possible to sub him for Skippy? :shifty:

We need as many reds through as possible for the late great Devlin. :(

That's it. Live GGGC is the only way to go. Make it like Masterchef.

I'm planning an attack on the 'Question Of Sport' studio as we speak...

Question of Sport? That's your answer! To avoid people extensively crawling Google, you could do this next time as a timed picture board round where everyone picks from the board and has like...2 minutes to give an answer!

Or a Masterchef round in which people compete to make the best-gaming themed cake. Think of the opportunities... you could be literally swimming in GRCake that gets sent to you!

Maybe I need sleep.

Very good round, by the way. Very difficult and really does tax the gaming brain. Kudos.

Just been eading through GGCVIII. The more obscure games in our grid did come up.

I wanted to ask though, what did the cat/mouse clue mean in this round?

& also, if 2/9 people are away, would it be possible to postpone until Monday? Esp while you're still ill :shifty: :shifty:

Non-submittal. A dishonourable way to leave the competition. :( I never had the time, it's been an unusually busy day. Not an excuse, just a reason.

Well, it's been a pleasure taking part. Congrats and the best of luck to everyone who got through. :)

'specially Tragic. Rockets fo' lyf.

Got all but four of the pictures. Mayday and the Ape escape guy were the ones I really knew but couldn't place, Redd the Hunter and Axle Gear the ones I didn't know - though I have heard of Solatorobo from NGamer and Rocket Knight crossed my mind because of how much DML likes that game (that's the Sparkster game right?) but I never checked it out.


The Grunty one was the one I was annoyed about when the filters were removed. Took me a while to work out who it was but I got it in the end. Then when the filter was removed it was so obvious (because you could see she was green).

How I worked out the others:

1. Petey - Looked very Mario-y, thought it was a Toad at first, stumbled upon the Petey picture when on a Nintendo wikia
2. Marcus Fenix - Never played GoW but this one was obvious
3. Pepper guy - strawberry float this guy. Recognised the eyes, knew he was a toy-like character. Could see what looks like a helmut. Cue lots of googling variations of "toy soldiers/vikings/knights" etc until finally getting a result
4. Hadn't a clue. At one point I convinced myself it was King Hippo from Punch Out until google revealed it wasn't.
5. By some kind of miracle I found this one by searching for number 16. Was sure number 16 was from a "lesser" known fighting game. So searched beat-em-up wikias like BlazBlue and eventually Guilty Gears where I found this one instead.
6. Laverne - "Looks like an old school point and clicker", cue searching the likes of Maniac Mansion and DotT images
7. Joanna Dark - Woman holding a gun. Either Lara Croft or Joanna Dark. Quick google confirmed it was the latter.
8. Lich King - Heavy RPG vibe, assumed it was an Elder Scrolls game, after finding nothing from that line of enquiries I moved onto WoW searching.
9. Should have got this bastard. Was concentrating on N64 games too much that I didn't think about PSone games.
10. Grunty - Lots of searching for this (bringing up some interesting results) before the answer came to me in a moment of realisation , so obvious when the filter was removed
11. Freya - One where I was glad the filter got lifted. Couldn't even tell what I was looking at before. Once I could see it became obvious which gaming series it was from (reminded me of the Crystal Chronicles models) so then it was just a case of trawling through Final Fantasy wikis until I found it.
12. Max - At first I was convinced this was Chun-Li, which I assume was what DML was trying to confuse people with. But then when I realised I was looking at it the wrong way it became clear who it was. Never played the game but had recently read the Ninty Gamer Replay on Advance Wars so it was still fresh in my mind.
13. Tails Doll - From the nose I instantly thought Sonic design. I was convinced it was the Polar Bear from the Sonic fighters game, when looking on a Sonic Wiki to confirm this I found the Tails Doll page. Bingo!
14. Nero - First thought: Ivy from Soul series. Researching (bringing up some more interesting results) debunked that. Only other character with white hair I was aware of was Dante from DMC. Image searching for Dante DMC didn't bring up that image, widened the search for just DMC shots when I found the one with Nero. Who had slipped my mind since I've never actually played a DMC game.
15. Recognised the character model. Should have got it.
16. See 5.

15. Recognised the character model. Should have got it.

This was the one I got yesterday evening. I recognised the background as an N64 texture and from the way we were looking at the character it seemed likely to be from an FPS game. So obviously I searched Goldeneye right away and found a picture of Oddjob with the same floor and background, and of course there are only so many women in the game. However, I was stuck at this point as I knew none of them had full length sleeves. Then I stumbled across the original Mayday picture. :lol:

Only way I even knew what to look for with Rocket Knight was because it was mentioned in the final round of the last GGGC 8-) Hadn't heard of it until then. Went for the wrong character, though :fp:

Safe Zone? Safe Zone? I've never even bloody heard of Clockwork Knight. Some of the others were really challenging too. The trouble I had was the fact the obscure ones were not obscure in a way I'd know them, they were like Saturn obscure.
