Guess the Game - Hangman
beetle120 (1340), Jun 28, 2008
User AvatarI decided to make a new topic for "Guess the Game - Hangman" as it was getting close to 200 posts and it is about time that it lost it's beta status.

Recap of the Rules:
1. I will give you a title of a game here on MobyGames with all the letters/numbers removed and a | for spaces so it is displayed like this "_ _ _ _ _ | _ _ _ _ _ | _ _ _ _ | _ _" which means it a title of 5, 5, 4 and 2 letters/numbers in each word of the title.
2. All members can pick a maximum of ONE letter/number per day (just wait for my post). Letters are a to z (I'll treat Capitals and small letters as one so 'a' can also equal 'A') and 0 to 9 all other symbols (:",' etc.) and non English letters (âè etc.) will be filled in by me. The letter that most people pick will be selected and added to the word. In case of a draw, a random letter of those picked will be chosen. e.g. "a" was picked so it will be _ _a_ _ _ | _ _ _ _ _ | A_ _ _ | _ _Unlike normal Hangman there will be unlimited wrong guesses.
3. A player may guess the game at anytime but again only one guess per day and the guess must be spelt correctly and put into quotes like this "The Game".
4. Scoring:Each time someone puts a letter/number in there post they give that letter/number 1 vote. I will go down the list of the letter/number of the most to least votes and the first letter/number that is in the title I will put in and then everyone that had that letter/number in there post will get the following points if it is a:
Vowel (a, e, i, o, u) = 1 point
Consonant (all letters minus ones above) = 2 points
Number (0 to 9) = 3 points
If 2 or more letters/numbers had equal votes that are in the title then it will be chosen at random. Players can pick the title at any point which is worth 3 points + 1 point for each remaining letter/number e.g picking "_a_ | & | _o_ will get 7 points .

"BioShock (Limited Edition)"
User AvatarYou guys are too good!
User AvatarWith all due respect to Yearman's skills (which he displayed guessing other games), this one was basically just a matter of "who went online first"...

All you have to do is to make a search for Limited Edition (the brackets totally give it away); "Bioshock" is the only match.

It is not the Bioshock Limited Edition? Man, I was 100 percent sure about this one.

Maybe it's not a limited edition. I'll take a N.

User AvatarHa! Now that is what I and guys at Penny Arcade would call "a startling development"!
User Avatar"Majestic: Special Edition".

No brackets in MobyGames version, but still... I don't see anything else that fits.

Holy buddhas and bodhisattvas... I was so sure it was Bioshock...
