The 'Goons. Hired Goons.' Quiz by Moot_Geeza (The results!) - The Bear and Badger

JonB

Quiz time.

Below are 60 pictures of bosses from 60 different games.

Have a look, see how many you recognise, and PM me your answers. Edit: Give the names of the games, not the bosses.

Most correct answers gets an online code for PSN or XBOX Live worth £10. (Although if anyone wants to add to the pot, or put in a second prize, feel free.)

Some rules:

1. Just send me 1 PM when you've got your final answers ready.

2. Don't use any resources other than your own brain - no checking stuff online, or asking other people.

3. I'll leave it open till 9 pm, Monday 18th. So get answers in before then.

4. Don't discuss possible answers in the thread (or start a thread about the best game bosses) before that.

5. In fact, don't discuss how many you've got before the answers are out - it just gives everyone else a target.

GOOD LUCK!

Excellent work, I'll not enter as I only know about three.

davyK

Don't know what 27 is but I want to play it.

Yossarian

Same here. [edit: knowing about 3]
Incidentally, are you after the name of the game or the name of the boss?

The Daddy

I recognise many, but know few. Might have a go later.

The game. Should've made that clearer.

I'm not sure all of them even have names.

Kow

I know one.

Nice. Will do this without hangover.

regmcfly

54 was the bane of my life as a kid, due to the conveyor belt as well. I'll never forget that prick.

regmcfly

And I saw 58 as a nipper and thought "what am I playing what if my mum sees"

[Deleted User]

I met 26 fairly recently.

WorKid

I have about 7. Woo!

hylian_elf

What if we get right series but wrong instalment?

Paul the sparky

Punishable by death.

Tempy

I love a good boss in a game, and I have a great memory for them and their names (it's what clogs up my brain and makes me so thick when it comes to anything difficult) so I enjoyed this. Still struggled with a bunch, plenty their that I remember seeing at friends' houses or in strategy guides - like number 50.

Edit: whoops, rules!
Edit2: Fucking hell I'm a shambles. Apologies Jon.

Moot_Geeza

Loved this, top marks for effort and execution.

optimark_prime

I know about 5, recognise a few more.

These quizzes make me feel inadequate, tbh. Usually the task of my wife and work colleagues.

tin_robot

Which one's Tony Danza?

Yossarian

That's a trick question, they all are. He's an incredibly versatile actor.

davyK

I've had a go for an outside chance.

fullspectrum

Guile's let himself go.

Skerret

Well done Jon. I know a surprising number of these, will enter later.

Hodgepodge

Ah, I love stuff like this. 34 looks so familiar, I'm racking my brain but I just can't get it.... Awesome stuff Jon.

regmcfly

Number 1 is over rated. COME AT ME

hylian_elf

The only one that is annoying me is number 19. The others I clearly know or don't.

The first rule of boss quiz is: do not talk about the bosses or the games they were in.

Actually, it's the fourth rule, but still...

Are there any rules about trolling?

Tempy

Ah fuck, i've remembered 12 now

That's a temps game. And 1 is good, but still.

Dogfingers

Number 18 is pissing me off, I know the genre and what its on, can't fathom its name

JonB

Already got 7 entries on this.

Plenty of time for more.

Howdy, Stranger!
