Walker's "Screens of Death" quiz

Walker · 02 May 2002, 14:14

Most games just throw a "Game Over" text in your face, making it even harder to face that your game character is no more. As if some games aren't hard enough, huh?
Well, fortunately some game developers gave half an hour of their valuable time to a nice game over screen. Let's see if you remember them! Some are quite easy, some are as hard as... as.... whatever.

Oh yeah, since all images are taken from the HOL archive, members of the HOL team are forbidden to take part in this quiz.
Yes, that includes you too Cody! Stop whining, Twist!

OK, here's #1:

#3:

Tim Janssen · 02 May 2002, 14:34

Hmm, let me guess:
1: Shadow of the Beast 3
2: Abandoned Places 2
3: Ishar 1

Walker · 02 May 2002, 15:05

Correct! Very impressive!

I'll have to dig up some more....

7-Zark-7 · 02 May 2002, 15:11

Abandoned Places 2. I remembr playing the the demo version to death off The One's coverdisk years ago. That death scene guitar solo was brilliant!

Walker · 02 May 2002, 15:40

OK, here's #4:

Walker · 02 May 2002, 23:16

Yup, #4 is Maya.

What about this one; #5:

Tim Janssen · 03 May 2002, 13:08

About guessing the correct titles: Since I am not that good in playing games, I know tons of ‘Game-Over’-screens. :laugh

About picture number 5: I really don’t have a clue from which game it is taken. I guess some French title like Coktel Vision’s Ween?

Walker · 03 May 2002, 13:17

Nope, #5 is not a French game. Two hints:

1. It's an action game
2. 1988

Walker · 07 May 2002, 09:53

Too tough for you, eh? OK, here's the last hint for #5:

The title has four characters, and two of them are the same.

Walker · 07 May 2002, 09:55

Here's a new set of screens, taken from the deepest dungeons of the HOL treasury:

These are all great screenys Walker, however I don't even want to go into what I think about #7 :eek

Walker · 07 May 2002, 10:13

I told you, these screens are stored in the DEEPEST dungeons. That's where we keep the ugly, dirty, horrible ones. Oh yeah, Twistin Ghost lives there too.

jmmijo · 07 May 2002, 10:19

Ah, Twistin', this explains my whole reason for existing then

I'd say Twistin' is ready to become a Morlock or a CHUD and become some nasty beasty with sharp pointy teeeeeth :laugh

Tim Janssen · 07 May 2002, 10:26

I only know #7: Stormlord 2 aka Deliverance.

Walker · 07 May 2002, 10:55

Correct, #7 is Stormlord 2 / Deliverance!
