Trin's Mystery Screenshot Extravaganza MkII

[FrozenSoul80]

Perfect Dark Zero.

[TAT]

The Adventures of Greenman in the Green Forest

[AranchineD]

*Avatar, as experienced by Second

[Second]

I cry myself to sleep.

[Sweating Bullets]

Secret of Monkey Island

[TrinityJayOne]

Nobody has it yet. If it's not guessed by morning there shall be a hint.

[Sweating Bullets]

Braid?

[Natrak]

Dark Void?

[AranchineD]

Kameo?

[Mr.Mew]

Turok.

[Lazlow]

Bad Company 2?

[grimace06]

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

[Hyperblau]

Prince of Persia

[adam_91vn]

Shadow Complex

[Takeda]

Lost Odyssey.

[/backslash]

Def looks like Uncharted 2 with Nathan jumping over a log, or it could be him shot dead on a log, not sure which :p

[Mr.Mew]

Uncharted.

Goin' multiplatform. Happeh dais.

[TrinityJayOne]

Wow really? I was not aware. Anyhoo, here is a generous hint- Fallout 3 + Sid Meier's Railroads.

[TAT]

A post-apocalyptic train simulator?

Hmmm

[Hyperblau]

Oblivion

[Lazlow]

Metro 2033

[Vindik8or]

If not Obilivion then Shivering Isles.

[TrinityJayOne]

A post-apocalyptic train simulator?

Hmmm
Thought you had it there! Looks like Lazlow is on track (ha!) for some points. New screebshot tonight!

[TrinityJayOne]

That's what you were looking at. Initially I thought the rail and the legs were obvious, but upon looking at it the next day I could barely work out what was what myself and almost eased up on the final filter. This next one is a bit easier as a result of the last two being a bit hard it would appear. To the first post!

[Sweating Bullets]

Dead Space

[Hyperblau]

Bioshock 2

[AranchineD]

Halo 3

[Natrak]

Supreme Commander?

[TrinityJayOne]

Was that on 360? That shit was complicated enough with mouse & keyboard! :eek:

Nobody has it yet, and I must admit there are some odd choices there. >_> Contemplating making it a rule that all guesses come with a superimposed MS Paint drawing that justifies your choice. :P Anyhoo, Natrak seems to believe (I think) that it's a top-down camera view, and he is correct in that regard.

[Sweating Bullets]

Halo Wars?

[AranchineD]

Stormrise

[Clockw0rk]

CnC3?

[Sweating Bullets]

I think Aran has it

[Hyperblau]

Red Alert 3

[Mr.Mew]

Looks more like R-Type.

[Lazlow]

Zombie Apocalypse

[TrinityJayOne]

I think Aran has it
He does not. :D

[Lazlow]

I take it no one else does? >_>

[TrinityJayOne]

Oh, no. Probably should have been a bit clearer there.

[AranchineD]

Well let's go in a complete other direction.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance

[buckstwits]

Force Unleashed?

[Lazlow]

Mushihime-sama Futari

[TrinityJayOne]

You were closer before. >_> I'll give you an early hint, the game's action is certainly realtime and there is much strategy involved, but it is not an RTS.

[Lazlow]

Toy Soldiers?

[Hyperblau]

Darwinia +

[Second]

Needs more rounds with bonus questions, IMO.

[TAT]

Starcraft 2

[Second]

Xbox General.

[AranchineD]

Defence Grid: The Awakening

If it's not this I'm flipping my computer desk over in anger

[Natrak]

Greed Corp?

(dunno if that's real time or turn based, but anyway. Pretty much just throwing out games with a top down perspective at this point. :P )

[TrinityJayOne]

Defence Grid: The Awakening

If it's not this I'm flipping my computer desk over in anger
There'll be no desk flipping tonight, or at least not by you.

New screenshot tomorrow as it's my bedtime. :( One more win and Aran will be taking home the prize for a 2nd time, so everyone get their shit together!

Also, in the interests of promoting competition and to please Jeson, I'll endeavour to include a bonus question for the next few rounds.

[TrinityJayOne]

Ok, new round is up. For this round there are TWO bonus questions. While related to the game, they both also demand a bit of (relevant) general knowledge. Because one person getting 3 points in a round and shattering Aran's hard-earned lead would be a bit cruel, the same person may not answer both bonus questions unless they did not guess the screenshot. Ask if you are unsure!

BONUS QUESTION 1- Explain the link between this game and Dave Grohl (1 point)

BONUS QUESTION 2- The screenshot shows a man-made object that was developed specially for the events in this game. Before this point in time, it was known as a ___________ ____. (1 point)

Yes, they are both slightly difficult, and you need to be specific. No, the answer to the first question is not that Dave contributed to the game in some way. ;)

[AranchineD]

Halo 3

The screenshot shows a man-made object that was developed specially for the events in this game. Before this point in time, it was known as a BOUNCY-JEEP THING.

[Hyperblau]

Battlefield 1943....Dave Grohl plays it...

[TAT]

Dude, the Warthog has been around since Halo:CE...

[AranchineD]

Yes, because I actually think it's called a BOUNCY-JEEP THING.

You clod.

[TrinityJayOne]

Wrong so far. Also the object mentioned is not fictional.

[Hyperblau]

I got no idea so im sticking with guessing the picture...

Just Cause 2

[AranchineD]

Well I got no idea about the bonus questions then.

Let's just guess Brutal Legend

[TrinityJayOne]

Seems nobody else wants to try this round, so here's a hint- the game is not an RTS, except during the times that it is. In the screenshot you are looking down.

[9warbane]

Brutal Legend.

[grimace06]

Stormrise

[AranchineD]

Shit, I don't know, random guessing time...Kingdom Under Fire II

[Clockw0rk]

Nuclear Dawn?

[Clockw0rk]

Can we just give it to AranchineD and finish this? I realise you can't make it a cakewalk, but 3 of the last 4 screenshots have been retarded.

[AranchineD]

Well Trin could probably take "better" screenies if we could trust Blake to not cheat!

[Clockw0rk]

Tineye does ruin it a little.
Raven Squad?

[tau]

crysis

[Lazlow]

Tropico 3

[tau]

viva pinata

[TrinityJayOne]

Tineye does ruin it a little.
This, plus there's a few other sites I found that do the same thing, only they have a larger index and are thus far harder to confuse. I check all the sites I know of before posting and if one gets a match, I redo it.

I'm happy to end it here seeing as Aran is incredible at these things and will inevitably win anyway, but perhaps there should be a vote or something.

[AranchineD]

Oh I'm not good at these things, I'm just always online so I can post immediately after every update. :D

[Hyperblau]

Endwar

[TrinityJayOne]

Close. Think older.

[Second]

Your mother.

[AranchineD]

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway

[Hyperblau]

Frontlines: Fuel of War

Dave Grohl likes to play it.

[Lazlow]

R.U.S.E.

capzmother****er!

[TrinityJayOne]

I might just do an easier one tomorrow. >_> It was Battlestations Pacific.

BONUS QUESTION 1- Explain the link between this game and Dave Grohl (1 point)

BONUS QUESTION 2- The screenshot shows a man-made object that was developed specially for the events in this game. Before this point in time, it was known as a ___________ ____. (1 point)
After Nirvana, Dave Grohl took inspiration from the name WWII pilots gave the UFOs that alledgedly chased their planes (a "foo fighter").

As you can see, the man-made object was a plane. To be exact, it is a military-modified version of the Douglas DC-3, the 1940's equivalent of the Boeing 747.

[AranchineD]

I still don't know what game it is.

[Mr.Mew]

After Nirvana, Dave Grohl took inspiration from the name WWII pilots gave the UFOs that alledgedly chased their planes (a "foo fighter").

Mayday! A Foo Fighter be tailing me!
*Dave Grohl flaps his arms and screeches*

[Hyperblau]

Bonus question 2 was misleading.

[Clockw0rk]

Bump.

?

[TrinityJayOne]

I haven't forgotten about this, just that PS keeps randomly forgetting registry information somehow and refusing to start. I think the concept is done now though, so easier to just award it to Aran and be done with it. :\

[AranchineD]

We can still guess the next game you were going to post!

Was it Chronicles Of Riddick?

[TrinityJayOne]

Uhh....sure! You win! >_>

<_<

[AranchineD]

Hooray!
