Bully created a tiny bit of controversy but nothing compared to that of Manhunt 2.
I think it depends which country you're in, I know Manhunt 2 actually got banned for a while but parents kicked up quite a bit of fuss over Bully in the UK. I think discounting the question was fair.

Heh, controversy over a controversial question, oh the irony

I only got 1 wrong. Not counting the thrown out question. 23/24

What was the first European GBA game released? Was it really castlevania? That didn't seem so familiar to me...well, guess my memory isn't good.

Was it possible to get 25/25? I'm asking that because I answered all of the questions correctly, yet my score reads 24/25.

I've read in this thread that some people also correctly answered all 25 questions on the quiz as well. I'm guessing 24/25 was the highest score one could receive?

They didn't count the controversial question about controversial games. Lol. Isn't that weird? The controversial question was about controversy itself.

Hey, so I checked GFAQs right now about the question I got wrong and it even says so that Circle of Moon wasn't the first Euro game released.

One of these trustable sites is wrong. Who is it? Is it GFAQs that is messed up or GBATemp?

It asked for the first ROM, not game.

25/25... didn't win anything. Oh well, I already have a (outdated) flashcard, so I'll make do.


I feel bad for those people for whom this was the only way to get a flashcard, since I was one of them until one year ago.



357 correct entries - 50 Acekard = 307 /= 00.153.5% of luck
mean petty good! you could win in next Quiz...

The question was "What was the first European GBA scene release", i.e. the first EU rom that was dumped. It was not asking about which game was released in the European market first.

If question 11 would have been left in like it should have been, instead of 357 correct entries how many should there have been?
The answer to that question is 275.

How many of the 82 won?
Ya, I want to know too!

Me, for one

On the plus side I'm one of the few people who won who's got a decent post count and has been registered for a long time if that helps redeem me

Much respect to the GBATemp gang for organising the quiz, thanks

Good thing I bought one last week!!!
If you got them all right, considering there was 356 other people that got them all right also, your probability of getting picked to win is exactly:

14.00560224%

Seems pretty low unfortunately for such a gamer full of knowledge. Sorry to here that.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
