FMV Oasis quiz - Page 4

harald · 05-03-2012, 08:06 AM

Wow, I didn't recognize one single picture from the "FMV Guru" ones. Not too surprising, I suppose. But I had hoped to know a bit more than a measly two or three from the "Movie Lover" group. I love FMV games, but maybe that's because I've simply missed the more obscure and/or terrible ones.

List of characters (in order of appearance)

Fien · 05-03-2012, 08:26 AM

I counted my points for all the pics I recognized. My score is 48. Could be better but not bad.

Diego, Hamlet feels out of place in the Casual department. Very rare and not well-known.

Zobrak's secret is being online when new rounds begin.

When I showed up for the third round there was only one screenshot still to be guessed, and I only managed to get that because GreyFuss got his Cyberflix games mixed up.

Thanks for the quiz Diego.

TimovieMan · 05-03-2012, 09:08 AM

Nice quiz!

I got 4 points out of a possible 20 (that's all I recognized). That's actually not that bad for me. I'm getting slightly better at these things...

Hehe... But don't feel sorry, you nailed some of my trickiest ones

I don't know, or it's just that i was being cunning with selecting non-ordinary scenes/people from the games. I haven't played all of these, of course but - Obsidian, Bad Mojo, Black Dahlia, In Memoriam/Evidence... are certainly not obscure nor terrible

Hey, don't call my quiz "C Movie"

And where do you see Steven Seag...

Uhh, nevermind.

I know. I ran out of the "casual" choices

(couldn't find a proper Dennis Hopper shot as well). But seriously - Kennet BRANAGH? In a tight dress, with a sword? It screams Hamlet.

Adventurere No.1 · 05-03-2012, 10:15 AM

why Nevermind you actually had put your hand on the one

....

Nahh man your Quiz was just A++++.....

Hey, if I didn't recognise any of the actors and only guess the games I'd actually played, I'd only get 6 points in total. I think I did quite well with 20 then...

Yes, Hamlet was the only one I didn't recognise from the casual section. But I'm sure going to add it to my list of games that I want to play but never actually will

that's nice to hear, as i had indeed hoped those who can't recognize the game can still recognize the actor which will lead them in the right direction. But you'll also feel "sorry" that among others, ones like John Rhys-Davies

and Jeff Goldblum

"didn't make" the final cut

(Or perhaps, Erika Eleniak

)

It's your loss mate, just look at some of the characters you failed to incorporate in your quiz:

God, I LOVE adventure games!

*Fantasysci5* · 05-03-2012, 11:38 AM

That first girl is quite cute, but look at Davies' cute little face! *squishes Gimli*

Good job Diego! Sorry I didn't take part-I don't really take part in any, because I never recognize hardly any.

Trunkyo · 05-04-2012, 05:19 AM

Darn, I blinked and missed this one.

Of the Guru-level pics, I think I recognized only a handful of them. Good work, Señor Guapo!
