Sort of. It's my account on there anyway. I did intend to do it on the R.U. channel but didn't have the passwords. Maybe we can move it or something.

As a bit of fun I intend to post it on some of the other arcade forums I frequent.

BTW I put one of the games on just for you - did you see it?

Some of the others i've never actually played, but the X-Men one was real easy considering there is only one Nightcrawler ;)

It's either 1942 or Centipede that's wrong. I'm taking the risk and say that Centipede is actually Millipede

Very cool Jojo! I assume some of the screen shots used to make that video are still in the queue? Can we just delete them, or do you still need them?

I couldn't see any bud'. I thought I'd deleted as I went along. If you ever do see one though, just delete it thanks.

25 Tanc - Good going. Just one wrong

Good job Jojo but I think it needs some music, maybe something not from gaming so it doesn't confuse people.

26 Mr Cassidy - You know your onions! Good job.

Between you so far you have got 37/50

Now that Kong has kindly uploaded the vid I can tell you the missing 13 Games are numbers:-

1, 3, 17, 18, 19, 27, 32, 34, 37, 38, 39, 42 and 43.

I know there's someone still out there who definately knows at least half of these.

Still need 1, 3, 17, 19, 27, 34, 38, 39, 42 and 43.

19 isn't Sunset Riders is it?
Isn't 42 the game that gave us our RU logo?

No and No

Robotron was number 46 and Mr Cassidy who I believe is the robot's creator called it.

My mistake - still very impressive all the same.

42 - Battlantis (http://retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/4947/) » Coin Op (http://retrouprising.com/game-menu/coin-op/)

Yep. 41/50

1, 3, 17, 19, 27, 34, 38, 39 and 43. Still remain.

I should know 1 and 3 as I've played both those games but I'm drawing a blank right now.

17 is Up 'N Down and
38 is Vanguard

Not sure about the others.

The nature of the contest is gonna make people all paranoid about the smallest things. I don't think it will mess up other topics too much. Even if it does it should be entertaining. ;)

Really though I don't get why Tenser assumed any connection to the haggle game. My question to DBC seems pretty valid imo and I do change my avatar a lot and usually without any good reason.
