Metal Gear Solid 4

Friend, I wish! I haven't even seen it!! Need to jack my friend's PS and games for a month, now....


Nope, not that new. This game came out quite a few years ago.....and exploded onto the market at the time like an h-bomb!

It's the sequel to a VERY successful game, and even inspired a third "Spin-off" one...

K, nuff clues for today....

 

[EAS_Intrepid]

Can you give us a tip, which genre this game is? RTS of FPS or the like?

 

[Borg_Queen]

I think I shall just take a wild guess: Homeworld.

 

[Jeddy]

Fallout 2?

 

[Phoenix]

We have a winner!!!

“War, war never changes. The end of the world occurred pretty much as we had predicted, too many humans, not enough space or resources to go around. The details are trivial and pointless: the reasons as always, purely human ones. The earth was nearly wiped clean of life, a great cleansing. An atomic spark struck by human hands, quickly raged out of control. Spears of nuclear fire rained from the skies, continents were swallowed in flames and fell beneath the boiling oceans. Humanity was almost extinguished, their spirits becoming part of the background radiation that blanketed the earth. A quiet darkness fell across the planet lasting many years...â€
- Intro part 2, Fallout 2

One of my favourite games ever. Apart from Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel...



Ok, Jeddy, you're up!

 

[Jeddy]

Heh, heh, heh.....nice Avatar, Jeddy...

It's Red Dwarf, ain't it? Can't remember episode, though. Got a buddy that's into it, and he's shown me a VERY few pieces....and, as luck would have it, that sounds like one of his favourites....

 

[Jeddy]

lol yup, Red Dawrf, Episode Rimmerworld

And thanks

 

[Phoenix]

Danke....

Ok, this one one has a few answers...will take any of them....

"If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendour of the Mighty One … I am become death, the Shatterer of Worlds."


C Ya's!!

 

[Jeddy]

there was a similar one quote in andromeda...

angel dark demon bright.

however iw ill admit to not being sure if its the full quote, but Dylan says somethign similar when he realises he is the angel of death told about in nietchien tales of what happened at Witchhead.

 

[Phoenix]

Dunno 'bout that one.....post it and I'll compare.

For now, though....It comes from a game, a book, and a speech. Name the game, orator or book, and you win!

 

[Jasoneagle]

I doubt that this is correct but It sound like something from the Divine Comedy.

 

[Phoenix]

Nope....

Ok, next clue......Sid Meier......

 

[Jasoneagle]

Nope....

Ok, next clue......Sid Meier......

PC or Console?

 

[Queen_Amy]

Is it Sim City?

 

[Phoenix]

Not SimCity, and yes, it's PC.


Next clue......they are ancient, yet the old ones knew things we are still learning...

 

[Jeddy]

Civilisation?

Dont ask me which one

 

[StarBlade]

Sounds like it comes from the Bhagavad Gita, the line that was quoted by J. Robert Oppenheimer after the Trinity atomic test was successful in 1944. Although it's typically quoted (as noted above, by Dylan Hunt in Andromeda, for instance) as "Death, the Destroyer of Worlds".

 

[Phoenix]

And Jeddy Gets it first! Indeed, Civilization 3....

And, the SFK, yep, it was indeed quoted by J. Robert Oppenheimer, and comes from the Bhagavad Gita, though the actual quotations seem to vary depending on the source....either way, though, it's an interesting one....


So Jeddy, Batter Up!!

 

[Jeddy]

2 in a row! When your hot your hot!! *Dances*

uumm... as for my quote, i guess it would have to be;

"They cant stop us! We're on a mission from god!"

 

[Jasoneagle]

That would not happen to be Evan Almighty would it?

 

[Jeddy]

nope.

Well, it might be, ive never seen it so i cant comment

 

[CrazyFrog1903]

"They cant stop us! We're on a mission from god!"

Would that be The Blues Brothers?

 

[Jeddy]

well done Cfrog you are correct!

 

[CrazyFrog1903]

Sweet.... here is my quote....


"I don't think you want to do that. Our friend here, long john silver, left the gas on......What if the house blew up?" *BOOM*

 

[Phoenix]

You know, that sounds so much like something from the Douglas Adams books.....Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, or one of the others......

 

[CrazyFrog1903]

Nope. It is off a movie.

 

[Borg_Queen]

Pirates of the Caribbean?
