contest was fun...
I got 25/25 [in other word 24/24 based on getting manhunt 2 right but it being taken out]

Some good old rom/game info.. never realized those eyes in the name.. sort of cool to learn that.

wow, i won. Cant believe that, i entered and won this quiz and never entered the other quiz and christmas ttds. Thanks GBAtemp and team acekard. I feel sorry for all the otehr ppl who didnt won.

As with clone accounts, i never made another one, but i though gbatemp checks IP address? Or is it impossible 2 check and be accurate? I guess ppl could change ip though.

Are you serious? Controversy question was easy!


How many people got all 25 right, including controversy question?
It had no correct answer, so it certainly wasn't 'easy'. Out of curiousity, which answer are you claiming was the 'easy' correct one? It certainly wasn't Manhunt, which I assume is your unlucky guess:

Bully was extremely controversial in Britain, actually, to the point where it got the attention of the government and spawned multiple protest marches: Here.

Likewise it was controversal in Canada: here.

It was banned in Brazil.

And it was controversal in the US and elsewhere for homosexual content: Here.

Looking at all that, you can't really tell me you don't think this is a large amount of international controversy.

Those were all over the news. That is a 'large amount' of controversy by any standard. If you answered Manhunt, you definitely got the question wrong, and five seconds of googling would have revealed your error. Obviously, Manhunt was also controversal, but not particularly more than Bully (which had a much longer-lasting controversy over its multiple releases, devoted to many seperate aspects of the game.) Neither one can reasonably be called a correct answer.

Of course, No More Heroes and Resident Evil 4 were much less controversial than those two, so 'all of the above' was also not right (although I would argue it was the closest, since those two at least had some limited controversies.)

But really, the question had no correct answer. I knew something was wrong with the question as soon as I looked at it, since it gave a list of two of the most controversal games in recent memory, and two that weren't really that controversal overall.

i doubt alot of people woul;d do that, plus some people here dont have a paypal account/credit card. But thats a interesting idea.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
