[AAA]

I did worse on this one, and bwahhahahaha #2. I knew you'd use that one sooner or later.

[superaielman]

Fuck ID. That is all.

Congrats to ID for winning it agian. Thoughts on the quotes used?

[Yakumo]

Why did you use a 1/4 split path ending quote from PS3, even as a bonus? <_<

Also, how many got each quote?

[superaielman]

Because I'm evil. And actually, you, Cid, and Twil all got it, which is good for a bonus.

I'll count that up later. Takes much longer to figure that out.

[Sierra]

I missed...3, 6, 7, 10, 14, 17 and B3. Well, those are the ones I missed where I've played the game. I am particularly ashamed at missing the DDS quote. I knew I'd heard the line, too, just couldn't place it. Missing the FFVII line is damned lame of me too.

I have to admit it took some prodding for me to get the PSIII quote. I'd overlooked it at first, but Super insisted it was something I should know. I hadn't considered he'd be quite that evil. More fool me.

[AAA]

Never got the Tower ending. None the less there are several games I've played on that list. I knew Bonus#2 sounded familiar.

And I still got tied for second with that meager display. Heh.

[Ultradude]

Got 3, 4, 15, 16, 19, and part of B1. Not bad for me.

[SnowFire]

I won the prize at this one!   Could have tied for last if I'd seen the "Queen's Knights" version of Roy's quote, I suppose, by scoring half for knowing that it'd at least be Suikoden V...  but at least I don't feel SO bad, with a lot of the quotes being from games I'm only familiar with in passing or simply haven't played.

#1 still doesn't sound like a Ryudo quote.  Ah well.  Seriously kicking myself for missing #4 since I replayed XS1 shortly after finishing XS3, and I still didn't recall it despite there being a limited number of evil corporations to choose from.  I suppose I was fixing too much on heroes.  #8 sounds entirely too elegant in print for the utter ridiculous stupidity of the VP2 endgame plot, but I still should have gotten it.  And I won't feel too bad about 7, 9, and 14.  At least I got the FE9 quote!

[Niu]

Didn't participate as I play everything in Japanese.
But I somehow recognized the Lancelet quote, that sounds sooo like him.

[Dhyerwolf]

Had I played I would have gotten in between 4.5 and 6 (Likely 4.5 though)! This is why I don't really play. 3, 4, 9, 10, and the game of 5 where what I definetely recognized.

[Strago]

Hmm, yeah, would have done significantly better than the last one on this if I had remembered to send in answers. I definitely knew Ryudo, Cid, Gordon, Roy/Jidan, Tia/Dekar, Scythe, Heat, Pokey and Bowser.

[Meeplelard]

#1 still doesn't sound like a Ryudo quote.

Actually, it fits him perfectly...in the second half of the game where he's a unmemorable preachy character with no real worth.   Was actually thinking "That sounds like something Ryudo would say to Zera!" but didn't think Super would use the same character TWICE IN A ROW.  Shows what I know.

Anyway, I do have to question why a split path 1/4 from a game was a Bonus when a split path ending that is 1/18 or whatever was a normal quote.  No, the "Its been quoted here a lot!" excuse doesn't work (especially since I've NEVER SEEN THAT QUOTE), given I noted quoting doesn't matter when the line is never cited.

(also, that apparently isn't even the right ending according to someone else, but whatever <_<)

He says it to Selene in the first half of the game, IIRC...

[Lance]

Sweet.  I did much better than I thought I would.  Came in...fifth place?  Out of twenty entries?  Not bad at all.

The only reason I knew #1 was because a user on another site I frequent has that quote in his sig.

Anyone who has spent any time in the DL forums should have recognized #9 right away.

#3 was easy too.  Excessive swearing and general belligerence?  Who else could it possibly be?

Argh, I guessed Justin and Feena for #7.  Wrong girl-and-idiot combination.

I really lucked out on Bonus 2.  I knew it was from Tactics Ogre but I didn't know who said it, so I just picked a random character and went with that.  Lucky me, huh?

I guessed Bowser for #16, but I said it was from Paper Mario: TTYD.  Mighty kind of you to accept that, Super.

I am now kicking myself for not getting the Parasite Eve quote, the quote by Virgil, or the quote by Anastasia (I guessed Hilda...close but no cigar).

Fun quiz overall.  Bonuses were difficult, but that's to be expected.  Good times.

[Shale]

I can't believe I missed SH2. I just replayed it last week, for crying out loud.

The only guess I could think of for 7 was Dekar, but I didn't think the line sounded like him. Silly me.

I guessed Paper Mario 1 for the Bowser quote, so yay for forgiving scoring.

Got Parasite Eve by pure guesswork. I still don't remember Aya saying the line, but it matched up too well with PE's plot.

[Cmdr_King]

It's a 'voiceover' very early in the game.  End of Day 1 maybe?  Haven't played it in ages myself.

[superaielman]

Didn't participate as I play everything in Japanese.

It's from the scene at the start of.. oh hell? C4 I think. When Lans Hamilton's being tortured and the two have an argument in the middle of it.

[Meeplelard]

Got Parasite Eve by pure guesswork. I still don't remember Aya saying the line, but it matched up too well with PE's plot.

Aya doesn't say it so much as a character, is the thing; she says it as the Narrator.  Its how the game opens, more or less.  So yeah, easy to forget that Aya said it altogether.

I remember it mostly cause the whole "6 days" thing stands out to me for some reason.  Yeah, weird way to identify a line but <_<;

[AAA]

Same way I got it. Then again, PE was one of the first RPGs I played, so the lines stick out more for me.

Are you going to break down who got what again, Super?
