Woo!

But booo on Peph for not playing. :P

I should have had the Hulk one too as I put a random guess, but didn't put the full name. Plus I was looking on MobyGames anyway. :shock:

I had to go out of town to see my Grandfather in the hospital and he died on my arrival. So then was busy with the funeral. Sorry I didn't play but was a little too busy, I didn't even check the site till today.

If it makes you feel better I don't think I would have won I knew maybe 15 answer while looking through today.

Sorry for your loss peph. Losing a family member is never an easy thing.

Congrats Hobie! I don't think anyone knows their retro gaming (or retro in general, for that matter) quite like you do. I probably spent way more time tracking these answers down than anyone else, so my score really isn't as good as it might look. I have to say though, doing these contests is a real treat. I learn so much from going back and looking through a ton of games and systems.

Well, I am finally getting settled into my new home, so hopefully I will be back to playing games as opposed to looking them up. :lol:

Oh I looked plenty of them up myself. Yeah there were some odd ones I knew on sight, like the 2600 Superman one that I just had to answer and started playing, but I like a good detective/scavenger hunt too. Some like the Janitor Joe, I just got lucky and searched for the right thing with the clues I had. :)
