Okay, here we go:



Bonus Point - This game opens with a quote by which author?

... any hints?

Nope, and nope. I'll put up some hints if nobody can guess it, but anything I might say will probably tip my hand way too much. It's not a very obscure game.

[venomx]

Oh ... ok ok, Eternal Darkness - HP Lovecraft, Thats it.

[Mofo Rising]

Oh ... ok ok, Eternal Darkness - HP Lovecraft, Thats it.

Correct! I was afraid if I mentioned anything about the "sanity" system it would be solved in seconds flat, instead of minutes.

However, the opening line was actually by Edgar Allan Poe.

"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing..."

Bonus Point - Originally called __________ in Japan the name was changed along with the back story for the US port. I will give someone xtra karma if You tell me what your looking for in this game. (reason the main character is on this adventure).

[Mofo Rising]

Blaster Master!

I do not know the Japanese title, but I do know that you are on a quest to find your pet frog, which has jumped down a bottomless... stump?

[venomx]

Blaster Master is correct!

Because of your answer I'll let you pick, xtra Karma or 2 xtra game points.

The Japanese title was Meta Fight. Your up Mofo.

[Mofo Rising]

Guess I'll take the game points.

This next game is the second in a five game series (so far). One of the notable things about it is that it was one of the first to use actual voices, even going so far as to try and emulate it through the PC speaker!



Bonus Point - What is the name of the series protagonist?

[venomx]

Hmmm, I don't know this one.

I think that's Under a killing moon, and the protagonit is Tex Murphy.

You are incorrect.

However, you are right about the protagonist's name, so I guess you get two points.

Still waiting for the right game title, though.

[Cthulhu]

It's the martian memorondum!
You can post another one if you would like to, because I won't be able to.

[Mofo Rising]

Martian Memorandum it is.

Guess I'll post the next picture then:
