Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In "Halo: Reach", my favorite multiplayer game is a survival mode where players battle together against increasingly more difficult waves of attack. Which game mode is this?

Answer: Firefight

Firefight is a mode in several "Halo" games where players work together to destroy wave after wave of enemies, increasing in difficulty as it moves along. You can customize each map; my friend and I like to play with three lives each, infinite waves, on hero difficulty, and with friendly fire off (because remember, "friendly fire isn't").

"Halo: Reach" was released in 2010 for the Xbox 360.

2. In this game, you have the option of being either good or bad. Your Karma rating goes up and down based on what you do; heal civilians, become good. Drain their life force to heal yourself... Well that's evil. In which of these games does Cole McGrath choose between being a hero or an outlaw?

Answer: inFAMOUS

As an evil character, Cole's auto becomes red, like fire. In my experience, being evil is "taking the easy way out", as some good decisions are far more difficult. However, if you are too evil, everyone attacks you; even civilians. If you choose the oath of honor, you go from Guardian to Champion to Hero. Choose a path of evil and you are Thug, Outlaw, and Infamous. Of course, you can switch and head in the opposite path, but you may lose your abilities you earned.

"inFAMOUS" was released for the PlayStation 3 in 2009.

3. In "Tomb Raider: Legend", Lara Croft fights James in Ghana. With the help of a sword fragment, James attacks Lara with strange magical green fire attacks. But James isn't usually referred to as James in the game. What is he more known as?

Answer: Rutland

Kent, Zip, and Alister are all peers of Lara Croft. James Rutland, however, is not so well liked by her. In fact, throughout much of the game, it is believed he is the main nemesis, until it is revealed that Amanda, Lara Croft's friend, was really behind the madness. Rutland survived the encounter in Ghana, but Lara Croft was able to collect the sword fragment, which later turned out to be part of Excalibur. With the completed sword of Arthur, Lara Croft beats Rutland and Amanda both once and for all in the final level.

"Tomb Raider: Legend" was released in 2006 for a variety of consoles, including the Xbox, Xbox 360, PS2, PS3, and GameCube.

4. "Skyrim" is a game in the "Elder Scrolls" series. In this game, the main story line is about the character trying to defeat Alduin, a dragon who is gong to destroy the world. Which number in the series is "Skyrim"?

Answer: Elder Scrolls V

"The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" follows the player's character (players create their own character, so there is no one central protagonist) as they travel through a massive open-world in attempt to defeat the evil dragon Alduin. Of course, players can find entertainment in the game indefinitely without ever having to complete the main story.

The game has dozens and dozens of side quests, and the leveling up system is quite expansive. The game was released in 2011 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows.

5. Although characters can be customized by adding skins, the main character of "Minecraft" was given a name. This character catches fire if he accidentally walks into lava (well, wouldn't you?) and can travel through a place called "The Nether". What is the name of the character?

Answer: Steve

The default skin for the player character is Steve, and is meant appear as a generic human. Steve has dark hair, blue eyes, a teal shirt with half of it untucked, jeans, and gray shoes. In the Xbox 360 version of "Minecraft", there are more starter skins; seven total. The game was originally released in 2011 for the PC (later on other gaming platforms) and feature regular updates.

6. In "Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus", one of the members of the Fiendish Five learned to combine fireworks with martial arts, and called this new technique "Flame Fu". Which character, who later joined the Cooper Gang, is this?

Answer: Panda King

Panda King originally fought Sly Cooper in "Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus", but became an ally in "Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves". When Sly flight him, the Panda King lost and was sent to jail. When he was out of prison, he began to meditate, and when Sly helped him rescue his daughter in the third game, he became an ally.

"Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus" was released in 2002 for the PlayStation 2.

7. In "Donkey Kong Country", some levels have oil drums that sprout fire intermittently. It's fairly difficult to get across chasms when these are spewing fire at breakneck speeds. Sometimes you can take an animal across. Which of these animals seems to be immune to the flames and may safely travel across oil drums?

Answer: Rambi

Rambi is a rhinoceros, so his skin helps him as you jump across large gaps using only flaming floating oil drums. Sometimes, in the levels with fire, Rambi is right in front and easy to spot. Other times, he is fairly well hidden. He can typically be found somewhere within these levels (except when you already have Squawks), though.

"Donkey Kong Country" was originally released in 1994 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (my personal favorite childhood console and game).

8. The Castle of Uruk emits a red beam of light into the sky, and anyone who gets to close gets zapped out of existence (or killed, if you'd prefer). It is up to the player to stop this from happening. Which ancient mythology is the game described based on?

Answer: Egyptian

In "Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy", you control both Sphinx as well as Tutenkhamen (the cursed mummy). Sphinx is a demigod who must travel through an Egypt-like world to find a way to stop the evil god Set, and Osiris combines with him once again to form Ra. The game was released for a variety of consoles in 2004.

9. In this video game, shadows murder everything that lives. These dark creatures are known as the Taken. The eponymous hero can only destroy these creatures in the light, which is difficult since they only come out at night. They are only damaged by firearms when exposed by light, making the flashlight as important as your gun. The darkness burns away when the flashlight hits them. What video game is this?

Answer: Alan Wake

"Alan Wake" is set in Bright Falls, as a novelist tried to find out why his wife disappears. This man is of course Alan Wake, whose most recent novel is coming to life, but he cannot even remember writing the novel. Throughout the adventure, Alan Wake fights the Taken, but only during the night. There are various scenes that occur during the day, but no combat takes place during this time.

"Alan Wake" was released in 2010 for the Xbox 360.

10. One of my favorite game series is about a purple character named Spyro. The first game had him battle Gnasty Gnorc, and fire could be quite damaging to him. What sort of creature is Spyro?

Answer: Dragon

"Spyro the Dragon" was first released in 1998 for the PlayStation, and several video games followed. Spyro is purple, which is apparently a rare color for such a creature. Spyro has a guardian named Sparx, who gives him extra hit points, as all dragonflies are trained to do. Throughout the series, Spyro learns of many different breath abilities, but, as a dragon, he of course most commonly uses fire.
