5 Ouch! Come on version 2. I need more points!!! 😉
6, honestly better than I thought I’d do.
hey you should have a video game character contest
@Outcast- what exactly do you mean? Obviously we can’t do a contest where people redesign video game characters because copyright is a thing. But we could do a contest where people design characters that they would put in video games. But not for a while, we have a theme for the moment.
Hmm I only got 3.
With the zelda question… you counting some kind of Japanese versions also?
I would have said pc somewheres in the list on question 9, but that’s not really a console now is it? 😉
Nada. Just not my thing, unfortunately.
@Nug- Nope, all of the Zelda games I was counting have had a North American and European release. And yeah PC isn’t a console as it was originally designed for something other than gaming.
