#2 is not correct, Arial Type. And #6 had already been named by Oscar. My fault. Sorry Oscar, it wasn't intentional. I added your answers here later, but forgot to do so in the text file I use.

I have played most of the quiz games but not all of them.

My favorite games are on my hard disk permanently and taking a screenshot is easy. For other games I use google, mobygames, pics in reviews (pagoda is your friend) and of course youtube.

Trunkyo · 07-11-2011, 03:10 PM

35. is, appropriately enough, from

Spoiler:
Nancy Drew 12: Secret of the Old Clock

I think 47. is from

Spoiler:
Tony Tough and the Night of Roasted Moths

As for Blue Ice, you might have forgotten that, because someone gave you a nice boxed version of the game, you sold the one in the DVD case to a certain lucky demon on eBay in December 2006! (How's that for a good memory?

)

Fien · 07-11-2011, 11:12 PM

35 and 47 are correct.

Man, that's some memory! You're right, I looked it up in my old mailbox and there it was: Trunkyo.

Two-thirds guessed. Only 15 pics to go:
2, 4, 5, 8, 13, 15, 17, 18, 20, 22, 25, 27, 28, 42, 44.

I hope I haven't made the quiz too difficult?

2, 4, 5, 8, 15 are older or even ancient games.
18, 20, 22, 28 are recent.
13, 25, 42, 44 may be more difficult to guess.
17 and 27 are really rare/obscure

Hint: 2, 8, 22, 28, 42 and 44 also featured in Trunkyo's fountain quiz.

you know, it's funny that first half still proved harder than the second one where you unintentionally raised the difficulty by turning it into gif and gave me some brilliant ideas for future quizzes

You mean something like those scrambled pictures in MM Fall Tournament? Fien hasn't been so radical (thank God!).
