Contest #54 - Chen's Secret Life

[Nowitzki]

Have you ever wondered what a Chinese boy who grew up in Kansas does during his spare time (other than the porno watching of course). Well, I'll let you in on the secret.

Sooooo... I recorded myself playing a few of my favorite games, and a few of my not so favorites. Your mission is to figure out what games they are. Some are very easy, some are not so easy, and hopefully some are damn near impossible :P

Just so everyone know, I had a lot of fun making this contest, and I hope you have even more fun doing it, because this is my life we're talking about!!

Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSOT1DiGapk
The game is Mario Kart 64, and that's what is required as the answer. There are a few different Mario Karts with different names, so the exact game name must be provided as the answer. Also, if the game was Tekken 3, then Tekken 2 will not be accepted as the correct answer.

The due date for submissions will be Sunday, Sept 30th, at 11:59pm PST.

Prizes:
1st place = 100,000 vbux + they get to decide what category the next contest will be
2nd place = 50,000 vbux

Don't forget tho, these contests do count towards the divisional ladder even if the thing hasn't been updated in ages.

So, without further delay, here are the links:
Oh yea, just a heads up, the sound in those is very loud, for your own sake, start with a very low volume and work your way up.

Also, give me the song titles and artists for games: 8, 16, and 19. They are also worth a point each.

20 games + 3 songs, that totals to 23 total points.

If there are any inconsistencies between the youtube numbers and the batch files, say something and I'll fix it asap.

I await your submissions :P

[Nicole]

Nevermind.

I'm a retard.

[Nowitzki]

For #2 it's World of Warcraft or World of Warcraft The Burning Crusade, which is the expansion. You can go into the arena (which is that area) in both games, but I'm not familiar with equipment and stuff to determine which game it is.

[Icestorm]

Sounds good.. but do you think they would grill me if it wasnt Super Mario Brothers.. but just Super Mario 3? Im not sure.


EDIT: CONFIRM Metal Slug 3!

[Nowitzki]

After looking at some WOW stuff, I'm pretty sure that's from Burning Crusade.

@Ice - Is there there an actual Super Mario Brothers 3 and Super Mario 3, or is it just one game but we are confused on the title?

[Icestorm]

Im talking about the exact phrasing of the title.. thats the 3rd one and its defiently on NES.. but im not sure whether its 'brothers' or just super mario. Do you think he would care?

btw I edited my previous post.

Confirm its bro's btw.

[Nowitzki]

Everything on Google showed up as Super Mario Brothers 3 for NES when I searched for Super Mario 3, so the word Brothers is definitely in there.

[Icestorm]

Yeah its defiently Bros.. and the Metal Slug.. is Metal Slug 3 defiently.

[Decado]

Why isn't Number 11 bolded on the first post? I was already 100& sure that it's Mortal Kombat 4.

19th Xmen V.s Streetfighter.. which one though?
Pretty sure its the second one. Wait.. the third? Shit those "II" and "III" warp in my mind.

[Z_Blitz]

I could be wrong, but the Megaman one is PROBABLY Megaman 2, I'm not too sure though.

There's only ONE X-Men Vs Streetfighter game =p. The other sequels were given different names (Marvel Super Heroes Vs Streetfighter, Marvel Vs Capcom, Marvel Vs Capcom 2... etc).

#18 is Samurai Showdown 4. I just confirmed it :).

Bold-ify #11, mortal kombat 4 as well =p. I'm a 100% sure of it :).

[Dissidia]

Man, I'm late to the party on this one :/

Bolded up the extra ones I can confirm, also altered a few for accuracy.

[Z_Blitz]

ZOMG! I KNOW TRACK #16!

Yuria - You

:).

EDIT: It's MLB 2006: The Show.

EDIT 2: http://www.lyricsondemand.com/y/yamitoboushitohonnotabibitolyrics/hitominonakanomeikyuulyrics.html

:).

[Shinomori]

I'll see what I can do about the one we're missing when I get back from class.

(I didn't even know there WAS a new contest. :()

[Neve]

Rofl apparently I missed all the fun, and we pwned this contest already :D. Ah well...

[Dissidia]

The song on the basketball game is "Basketball" by Kriminal. From this I thought I'd be able to find some sort of bio (wiki etc) and see what game the song was in, but no such luck. Perhaps it'll help someone else though...

[Icestorm]

Yes... Contest officially destroyed. Except I have word that DB has also destroyed this contest.. hmm.. DB IS a major power card in gaming. Just that last one..

Woo.. for once I could contribute alot to a comp.

[Z_Blitz]

http://nbalive2001.ea.com/downloads_movie1.html

DING DING DING!

We have a winner :).

[Dissidia]

Excellent, I'd never have found it. Contest over, submitted, drinks all round etc. :)

[BeeCrest]

......I missed everything.


u.u

[Kabane]

zetsubou.


sucks bee.

lol

[Icestorm]

WAH.. Zetsubou is awesome.

[Dissidia]

Answers we got wrong:

- It was Metal Slug 2, not Metal Slug 3
- MLB 2005, not MLB 2006

:sad So close, looks like it might be a 3 way tie for first place.

[Nowitzki]

Since we submitted in basically 24 hours, it may not hurt to petition for having the tie broken based on speed (I'm pretty sure we were the first to submit)?

[Decado]

Good idea - as long as it doesn't backfire :lol

I don't see Kohaku to be one to change contest rules tho

[Icestorm]

Metal Slug 2 and 3 have the same menu screen? Thats ridiculous then.

http://spoonman.roarvgm.com/neogeo/ms3gallery/hi.htm

Isnt this the one that was shown?

[Dissidia]

MS series has been reusing character sprites and menus since forever, they only ever make minor adjustments with each sequel (for various reasons).

Anywho, we got 50,000 vbux prize. We also have a say in the next contest, here are the choices -

Anime
Manga
Music
CB member trivia
Scavenger Hunt
Video Games
Artistic (think contest #53, something like that probably)
Television
Random (basically anything else that we can think of)


We have to choose our top 3 things, then the favourite between us and the other winners is the next contest. Basically just say 1 contest you would like, after 3 individual responses in this thread I'll reply to Kohaku.

[Decado]

- Scavenger Hunt :)


2. CB member trivia
3. Television

[Shinomori]

Anything that doesn't involve art.

[Nowitzki]

Er.. I'd go with Scavenger Hunt or CB Member Trivia.

Trivia - We have a lot of veterans/mods here that know many members which would put us at an advantage.

Scavenger Hunt - Scavenger Hunts are fun.. :)

[Decado]

Yup, CB member triva would have been my third choice behind Television

I actually first did my 1 -> 3 as that, then realised he said just pick one u.u

[Nowitzki]

I think we should atleast agree that Video Games, Anime, Manga, and Music should be out of the question since we've had a lot of exposure to those areas over the last few contests.

[Neve]

I like the idea of member trivia :). We'd do well at that, anyway, since we have a lot of long-term members. A scavanger hunt would be fun, but it'd also be the option with the lowest chance of us winning, since it depends on luck rather than knowledge or researching skillz. Television...I know nothing about, but we haven't had one before, and we'd probably win it :)

So, for me:

1. Member Trivia
2. Television
3. Random

[Icestorm]

I agree with Neve.. our extensive knowledge of past and present members would give us a considerable advantage.. unless they do it on noobs.. then im screwed.

[Z_Blitz]

I don't mind the following five in no particular order whatsoever:

Anime
Music
CB member trivia
Scavenger Hunt
Video Games

[Dissidia]

Ah yeah, I should have probably mentioned that I submitted our recommendations. Member trivia, scavenger hunt and television (based on Decado, Obbywan and Neve's choices respectively). We'll see what turns up :)

[Jaran]

Member trivia for the win.

That stuff is always fun to do. :D

Scavenger hunts are meh, but TV is good. Seems like most of us were for the Member trivia as it was. :P

[Nowitzki]

CB Member Trivia Question 1:

Who abused their powers as leader of a certain division by kicking a member out with no reason, and was consequently stripped down of rank and membership of the division?

[Z_Blitz]

/me raises his hands

UNDYING?!

/me keeds

[Dissidia]

Z_Blitz really means Araharu >.>

Heh, I guess everyone goes mad with power eventually...

[Jaran]

Na. Going mad with power isn't an inevitability.

You can also go bored with power.

Take for example DragonBlade.

He = bored as hell with being an admin. :P

[Shinomori]

Z_Blitz really means Araharu >.>

Heh, I guess everyone goes mad with power eventually...

REMOVE YOURSELF BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

/me kids.

[Kabane]

- Scavenger Hunt :)

2. CB member trivia
3. Television


totally agree.

[Decado]

A scavanger hunt would be fun, but it'd also be the option with the lowest chance of us winning, since it depends on luck rather than knowledge or researching skillz
I agree that I chose it because it's kinda fun.. but mainly due to the fact that half of us are mods in wide ranging sections and we look through every post in every section pretty much every day, so we'll notice a discrepancy like that *clicks fingers*
And we''re veteran members who know what the next clue will be talking bout.

Ah yeah, I should have probably mentioned that I submitted our recommendations. Member trivia, scavenger hunt and television (based on Decado, Obbywan and Neve's choices respectively). We'll see what turns up
Aiite :)
