May Quiz - Answers & ScoreFor a while it looked like we had a "gay panic" at our hands and the player numbers were far from 100... then in the last two days enough people have turned up for a triple digit number anyway, so I'm happy.
Here are the results of the poll:
Beat'em'ups clearly won! Well then, there will be a good beating sometime this year.
No other forums voted more strongly for Shoot'em'ups than hardcore gaming 101.
But I have to ask you a question:
Why was "Cyberpunk 2077" so hard to guess? Less than half got it right, even though I gave several hints about it (AAA, open world, this decade, first-person perspective, lots of press). Also the picture shows the implants on the arms and the "facial stumps" which I only know from Cyberpunk. How come I have misjudged this so much?
But now it's time for the results of the quiz... first the names of the games as
text, then the
pictures, then the
award ceremony.
