Well if guessing is the idea, why not just phrase the question as "guess the game I'm thinking about", with no clues? While I can understand multiple guesses in that kind of game to combat the odds, it's utter rubbish in my mind, more adjacent to "20 questions" than mind games. Quizzing isn't about beating the odds, it's about working with the clues given to arrive at the correct answer through a line of logical reasoning. Next you'll be telling me they should allow multiple answers on college exams. No! Take a stand, man! I refuse to believe there are person on this earth without enough guts in them to at even decide on a single answer in a game quiz, for christ's sake.

Now, tell me honestly: why should multiple guesses be allowed? Why should "50% right and 50% wrong" be interpreted as completing the quiz? At least give me a solid argument here!

Now, if you want to see a hint of what *real* game quizzes used to look like, feast your eyes on this. Ah, those were the days. Questions that required so much brain power you'd vomit blood at the end, and participants never even thought about multiple answers.

And those who dared to try suffered horrible tragedies, accidentally stabbing themselves brutally to death while shaving.
 
Everything comes down to guessing. If you don't know the answer to a question, most people give it a guess. It makes them less likely to get it right, but it's not like you can stop them from guessing.

But after thinking about it, I agree. One guess per post.

I did like your quiz. I quickly figured out (AKA educated guess) that the FF7 2nd question's answer was
The Golden Saucer.
Am I correct? I didn't complete the quiz cause I have to get back to work, and because I haven't played about half the games on the list.

FF7, 2nd question: uhm, no. Quite far off, in fact. I should warn you that you'll need to use the full capabilites of both brain, computer and Internet to fully solve this quiz. Not to be sadistic or anything, it's just the truth.

Oh and by all means, feel free to take the quiz if you think you're up for it. No time limit, just let me know when you've submitted answers and I'll correct them. Just remember that the current people already on the score list differ from you lot in a few ways.
a) They had less than two weeks to complete the quiz
b) Some of them are quiz professionals
c) Speaking of which, it's such a shame Terence never participated in that quiz. He's notorious when it comes to these things...
 
Uhm, I doubt anyone can answer that quiz without external help.
Unless of course you have no life and have been constantly playing ONLY those games repeatedly.
