hey, at least I tried

4. What popular flying game on the original xbox uses large blimps as enemies?
Answer: Crimson Skies

I've got a counter question.
This question has a very slight technical faux pas (making it a trick question with no true answer), what is problem with this question? (highlight to see answer below)

In modern common usage, the terms zeppelin, dirigible and airship are used interchangeably for any type of rigid airship, with the term blimp alone used to describe non-rigid airships. Although the blimp also qualifies as a "dirigible", the term is seldom used with blimps. In modern technical usage, airship is the term used for all aircraft of this type, with zeppelin referring only to aircraft of that manufacture, and blimp referring only to non-rigid airships

All airships in the game feature the rigid internal skeleton if I remember correctly.

When was Pinball FX free? I paid for that sucker, which makes me a sucker. Although it is a good game, so I don't mind paying for it I guess.

I don't remember Uno being free either, unless you mean free with purchase (of the Xbox Live Vision Cam).

Doritos Dash of Destruction was (and probably still is) free.

Doritos Dash of Destruction was (and probably still is) free.

I remember getting pinball for free waaaayy back. And UNO was a free download at one time pretty sure. But even if I'm somehow wrong, there's still 3 there. Got any q's for the group?

lots of freebies:
aegis wing
undertow
totemball
yaris
dash of destruction
hexic HD
pinball fx
uno
carcasonne
texas holdem

ShadowRun

madden?

Resident Evil 5

Didn't it have like 4.2 million demo downloads?

I think #6 was actually "to graduate". Of course the secondary objective was to see pixellated boobies.

#8 clearly is Asswipe. For asking too many hard questions.

I got a good one:

___ the Zombie

fuuk?

fuuk?

my first thought too.

this companys gaming division formed only after nintendo scrapped their plans to build a CD addition to the SNES. their machines went on to pretty much dominate the rest of the 90's through the mid 2000's.

my first thought too.

ya! cause like if i see a zombie, i'll be all like AHHH! A ZOMBIE, then i'll be all like FUUK the zombie! and reach for ma chainsaw and such.

correct answer though is Stubbs :p

french kiss the zombie is the correct answer

Stubbs

winnar!

To get credit, answers should be in Jeopardy format.

4 score and seven years ago (minus 68), I was released by Nintendo to allow four players to connect to the NES. What am I?

double bonus - same question but "connect wirelessly"

crap, maybe this be in the nintendo section:rolleyes:

Too Human
Bingo!

Winner!

ShadowRun
great answer.... it's the same exact story as the real answer, except shadowrun was the 2007 failure, where too human was the 2008 failure.

funny too, both still have a pretty big following, more so than many games that sold pretty well and then fell off quickly.

too human was originally planned to be a trilogy, not sure if shadowrun had any such plans for the future.

still... great guess.

shaft

daaaaaaaaaamn right!
