But for reals I don't think you know where you are going with that one


Grrrr. Let us never speak of Diablo II again.

Gold?


Shiny, metallic gold, correct.

Just Sony. If you count handhelds, also Nintendo.


Sony. Or if you count all consoles sold by a company Sony and Nintendo. Correct.

Wii? Sounds too obvious, but I can't think of anything else that technically qualifies.


Wii. (Gamecube used small versions.)


Correct.

Avatar?


Incorrect. One of the main purposes of this movie was to sell an upcoming game.

Partial credit.

The Wizard - Super Mario Bros. 3




3. This game answers the question of, "Who run Bartertown?".

Master Blaster run Bartertown.

Master Blaster => Blaster Master


7. A former Detroit Pistons' enforcer is also known for this terrible game.

1. This "oxymoronic," PC gaming term describes a flaw in a game where the more you play, the less memory you have available.

2. Name at least two situations where a game company's logo would appear on a game box that they did not make.

3. A mod that completely or almost completely changes the assets of a game is called a what?

4. Air and water cooling primarily dissipate heat through ****.

5. If Nintendo made a handheld that was able to play every handheld cartridge game they ever made how many different physical cartridge slots would this handheld need?

6. While not the first, this game can be considered the first ever champion for mouselook in games.

7. What control feature that is a staple of modern gamepads cannot be replicated by a standard keyboard and mouse setup?

Memory leak.

2. Name at least two situations where a game company's logo would appear on a game box that they did not make.
Where the company is only the publisher (Codemaster's logo on FUEL, but they didn't actually develop it) and misprints.

3. A mod that completely or almost completely changes the assets of a game is called a what?
Total conversions.

4. Air and water cooling primarily dissipate heat through ****.
Conduction

7. What control feature that is a staple of modern gamepads cannot be replicated by a standard keyboard and mouse setup?
Pressure sensitive buttons. Although this will change soon.

Well I was thinking of correct means but misprints do happen.

Multiple-state inputs. Correct.

Convection


Yes.

Not sure what you mean by "first ever champion" as opposed to simply "first." But Duke Nukem 3D is the first really well known FPS to support mouselook, beating Quake by a few months.

I was going for Quake and Id, but then I started changing the question and somehow came up with that indtead. So correct, either way.
