(1) Even though Ultima Online was the first massively played multiplayer game, the newcomer EVERQUEST now has more active subscribers. Most people picked Ultima Online.
(2) The new Blair Witch Project game will use the NOCTURNE ENGINE.
(3) Most people got this one right. The musician that was heavily involved with the development process of Omikron:The Nomad Soul was DAVID BOWIE.
(4) The game that will use the new feature Play with the Pros will be the upcoming TIGER WOODS PGA TOUR 2000. In fact, that is the only Electronic Arts game in the list.
(5) The New World Computing product that can be described as a medieval Tomb Raider game would be CRUSADERS OF MIGHT AND MAGIC. Most people picked Heretic III but this game isn't even made by New World Computing.
(6) A surprising amount of people got this one wrong. I say surprising because Age of Empires II continues to do well on the sales charts. You cannot create ACOLYTES and SLINGERS in the game. Most people got the acolytes part right but thought that monks weren't in the game. Camels was another common answer.
(7) Harrison Ford does not do the voice acting in the game Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine. Therefore the answer is FALSE.
(8) Darkstone can best be described as a DIABLO clone. The game uses a 3d engine but plays almost exactly the same as that classic game.
(9) The game that is based on the life of John Mullins is SOLDIER OF FORTUNE. Most people got this one right but quite a few people thought it was Rainbow Six:Rogue Spear. Rainbow Six is based on the fictional novel by Tom Clancy of the same name.
(10) The game Final Fantasy VIII first came out on the SONY PLAYSTATION.
(11) There is an inherent flaw in the sentence, "Flying my American F86 Sabre, I rolled on the Mig 15's tail and fired a heat-seeker knocking him spiraling into the ocean". First off, Mig Alley does feature F86 Sabres and Mig 15 planes because it is based during the Korean war. However these planes do not carry heat seeker missiles and therefore the answer has to be NO.
(12) This was admittedly a tough question because the game hasn't been released yet. The upcoming game "The Sims" will let your sim people expand their families by having kids. They can do this in two ways. They can go to ADOPTION or THEY WILL KISSS AND THIS WILL REPRESENT INTIMACY. It is true that the game will block the screen when your sims are naked. But they will never have intercourse. I guess it is assumed when your sims start kissing.
(13) Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation is the FOURTH installment in the Lara Croft chronicles.
(14) Freespace 2 has a connection to the DESCENT series of games. It used to be called Descent Freespace 2.
(15) The game Driver lets you drive in quite a few cities. It doesn't however allow you to drive through the city of BOSTON.
(16) The original Sinistar arcade game was released way back in 1983.
(17) The new Alien Crossfire expansion for Alpha Centauri adds SEVEN NEW FACTIONS (5 HUMAN AND 2 ALIEN).
(18) Swat III was an instant hit but it did not include multiplayer support. Supposedly an add-on will be released in the spring that will add this feature. Therefore the answer is NO.
(19) The little program that allows you to play some of your favorite Playstation games on your PC is called BLEEM!. If you are wondering what that stands for, it means "Best Little Emulator Ever Made".
(20) Janes USAF lets PC pilots fly all the planes but the A-6 INTRUDER. This plane is a naval plane. Most people picked the A-10 Warthog.
(21) The two weapons not available in the game Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear are the STANDARD ISSUE COMBAT KNIFE (although that would be cool) and the ROCKET PROPELLED GRENADES. A few people might point out that you cannot use the AK-47 Assault Rifle. You cannot do so in single player but it can be picked in multiplayer action.
(22) John Romero was not one of the lead programmers for the recently released game Quake 3: Arena. He was one of the programmers for Quake 1 and 2 but then he left the company to form Ion Storm. Currently he is working on the very much delayed game Daikatana. The answer is FALSE.
(23) The game Urban Chaos takes place DURING THE TURN OF THE MILLENIUM
(24) In Half-Life: Opposing Force, the action does not take place following the adventures of Gordon Freeman. It takes place with the player in control of a commando sent to kill Freeman. The expansion pack takes place during the same time period and you do see Gordon Freeman, but the adventure does not focus on him. The answer is FALSE.
(25) The compnay that has acquired the rights to arcade classics like Dig Dug, Pole Position and Pac-Man is HASBRO.
(26) Dracula Ressurection can best be described as a MYST CLONE.
(27) In the game Gulf War: Operation Hammer, the implement of destruction is the M12 Hammer. This a completely fictitious tank and therefore could not be in any countries real-world arsenal. Therefore the answer is NO ONE. THE TANK IS FICTITIOUS. Most people thought the answer was either the United States or Russia.
(28) The game in this screenshot was SWAT 3. Most people thought it was Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear.
(29) The game in this screenshot was QUAKE 3. Most people got this one right but some people thought it was Unreal Tournament.
(30) The game in this screenshot was TEST DRIVE 6. Most people thought it was Need for Speed High Stakes or Demolition Racer.
(Bonus) In the movie Top Gun, the name of the character played by Tom Cruise was PETE MITCHELL. A little under half the people got this one right. Some people thought it was Tom Kazanski (Iceman) or Nick Bradshaw (Goose).
