I'm going to name the ones I was conflicted on so as to initiate discussion. It's a bit drawn out and contains spoilers of the games, so if you're just interested in knowing what the game is, highlight only the begging of the hidden text (with that said, sorry for the spoilers in the PM Fien, I thought you'd played these games already):

#1.
Spoiler:
Therese from Phantasmagoria 2: A Puzzle of Flesh. My doubts on this one come from her scenes as a monster really being hallucinations by the protagonist, Curtis. The first of them in particular, has her being very feral with talons that I thought could count as a Vampire. In another hallucination she appears, as I can best describe it, as the Emperor from Return of the Jedi, and will kill you if you don't do anything (I think she's supposed to be a phantom). So, like I PMed Fien, my thoughts were if we counted the hallucinations, she could count as a vampire (considering we're counting as vampires other creatures that aren't really vampires, but pretty close, namely #9), but if not, then definitely a vamp.


#6.
Spoiler:
Annisette from Dracula Unleashed. I played this one ages ago, but I'm pretty sure that Annisette's scene as a vampire is merely a dream by the main character. Although she is bitten by Dracula, she doesn't turn during the game, or, if I recall correctly, even begin to turn. Unlike Therese, you cannot interact in the "vampire" scene in any way, and, again, if I recall correctly, the protagonist is awaken by a very angry Dr. Van Helsing as he was supposed to be standing guard. Like with #1, if we count the dream she's definitely a vampire, if not, I'd say vamp, because that's the other choice we were given in the quiz besides Vampire. My reasoning for picking vamp for Annisette but vampire for Therese was that, Annisette won't kill you in her scene, while if you do nothing in one of Therese's, she will and you'll get a game over.


#8.
Spoiler:
Javelin from Riana Rouge. Don't judge me. I've never actually finished the game... or got very far in it. (Too many reflex action scenes I couldn't handle... with just one hand. I kid, I kid.). I know at one point Javelin (or maybe someone looking like Javelin) attacks you, and if you do nothing you die and get a game over. I don't know if she/it turns into a vampire or something else, but I decided to apply the same criteria as I did with Therese, if you do nothing, you lose, so I chose vampire.

I knew it was a porn quiz... No2 is hot though, and that's rare for a FMV game.

You've got to be kidding, right? It's a quiz about vampires and vamps. Vampires have traditionally been associated with sex, that's the connection. Sex is not the same thing as porn... but hey, I'm Dutch.

Interestingly, of the 4 games that have *some* nudity and/or sex in it, you chose the one which has no real action, no real nudity, no kissing, no nothing. Just a lot of talk and a lot of bare breasts.

Okay, here's the list:

1. Phantasmagoria 2 - vamp
2. Blue Heat - vamp
3. Voyeur 2 - vamp
4. Gothos - vampire
5. Night Trap - vampire
6. Dracula Unleashed - vampire
7. Zork Nemesis - vamp
8. Riana Rouge - vamp
9. Noctropolis - vampire
10. Mode - vamp

Gonchi, I understand your reasoning for #6 but not for #1. I honestly don't see how you can call Therese a vampire based on two suggestive seconds (no fangs!) in one of Curtis' hallucinations. You can watch it on youtube, start at 1:20. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXhcq-lXsRk&NR=1

So in the end I'll stick to my own criteria and that means that Skeeter got 5 correct, Harald 6, Dustcropper, Gonchi and Panthera 7, GrayPierce 8, and Diego 9. Gonchi also identified 9 games correctly (in PM). Wow!

Thanks for playing my seven quizzes. I loved putting them together. The pics were taken from 77 different games and I used two games twice: Dark Fall 1 and Zork Nemesis.

Yes 8 out 10 correct while I played 0. I should participate more often

Perhaps the quiz should have been called Fangs or No Fangs instead? If we're going to get technical, then we all got #9 wrong. So, I reject your criteria and substitute it for my own.

I was kidding. Everybody knows there are no vamps in FMV games as they cost too much) That's why I was surprised to see a good-looking actress... What was the game called? Blue Heat? I'm, uh, won't even search for this shameless game.

I think they made a movie of Blue Heat too (or they made the game off the movie, maybe?).

I've heard it's actually a pretty good game, and Elliot Gould's in it, him alone should make it worth at look (but the bare breasts help too).

LOL! You were kidding again, right?

Elliot Gould is just a name to attract buyers. He has 3 or 4 lines when the game starts, that's it. The woman who plays Holly is not an actress, although she has done her share of modelling, and don't get me started on her breasts.

Blue Heat was made after the film, not the other way round. It's a whodunnit and I quite liked it.

Oh. Well that's a shame, though not really surprising considering other games have done that kind of thing before.
