How well are you at recognizing video games?

Get under 5,000 points and you're casual.

I got 4975 - mostly because of my typing. I won;t spoil it, but there was one game in there that I knew but mis-spelt 4 times.

Man. I'm embarrased. I was doing so well too -- even getting the shitty games I don;t play -- like iPhone ones.

It's a fun game though.

I ran out of time trying to type out Final Fantasy 3...

I don't think that's a spoiler Aspro, as I think they are randomized...

Parrappa the Rapper. Or however it is spelt.

I also entered the wrong names - like SMB4 instead of Yoshi's Island (which technically is SMB4: Yoshi's Island).

I ran out of time on the last one too, Duke Nukem 3.... Nooooo! I think that would have brought me up to 5,000.

I sound just like I did in highschool after a math exam.

You can use freeware like printkey if you use a PC. It's very useful for other things as well. It lets you take a selected part of the screen and save it as a jpg.

I've been using it for years.

I suck at this game.

I played it three times, and only scored above 3000 once.

They should make a version of this that only covers Atari 2600 games.

I apparently suck. I've scored just under 4500 both times.

I'm too lazy to play it.

I score 0.

I have a Peter Griffin mind.

Well, I gave it another shot, and I got 8175.

I almost ran out of time around 7900 points, but Atari's E.T. saved me at the last moment and allowed me to keep going!

Game sucks. It doesn't have all the right spellings/names. It showed me like 4 wonder boy screenshots and it accepted neither "wonder boy" nor "wonderboy" nor "monster land" or anything so I had to skip it every single time. It also didn't accept Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Country when it was obvious that was the game, and some other stuff. And even though I had like 5k points it just said 5 in the end screen. Wtf?
