	Obviously, this list has spoilers. Make sure you look through the list of games before starting if there is a game you are trying to avoid spoilers for. Also, if you find an answer that wasn't being accepted (But should be), please leave a comment.

	SammyG:	Oct 21st, 2009 at 05:11 GMT	-1 points
	gotta accept more for the FFVIII one. I tried "Squall's matron" and didn't get credit.

	Jono_:	Oct 21st, 2009 at 05:14 GMT	1 point
	haha, i got one of the bonuses instantly, but have no idea what the other is :P

	Cheeseknight:	Oct 21st, 2009 at 05:21 GMT	1 point
	I added a few more SammyG.

	Cheeseknight:	Oct 21st, 2009 at 06:05 GMT	1 point
	Hint: All of the bonuses are very, very famous plot twists. Not necessarily gaming related though!

	rmzy:	Oct 21st, 2009 at 16:19 GMT	1 point
	I feel like some of these should accept more answers, especially the MGS2 one. I kept trying things like Solidus is Big Boss's exact clone, or that he trained Raiden as a kid. And I think the Kingdom Hearts one is a bit vague as well. Still, great quiz.

	Cheeseknight:	Oct 21st, 2009 at 18:14 GMT	1 point
	I altered the hints for MGS2 and KH so they are a little easier to figure out, rmzy.

	andrewd:	Oct 22nd, 2009 at 20:10 GMT	1 point
	"The immortals are..." aliens? I mean, that's what I'd call someone from another planet.

	PublicEnemy:	Oct 23rd, 2009 at 01:29 GMT	1 point
	I tried so many things for the CoD4 answer like "dies" "gets nuked" "bombed" etc. I think you need some more options.

	Cheeseknight:	Oct 23rd, 2009 at 06:05 GMT	1 point
	I added more options for both of the two you guys were having trouble on, andrewd and PublicEnemy. However, simply "nuke" or "killed by nuke" would have worked on the Call of Duty 4 question.

	BluePikmin:	Oct 23rd, 2009 at 16:03 GMT	2 points
	I'm confused about the Paper Mario 2 one, I mean that was sort of a double plot twist. You think it's a treasure, and then it turns out it's the Shadow Queen, so you think that was the treasure. But then after you kill her they find ANOTHER treasure chest with the real treasure behind the door, and it turns out it was just a really old dried mushroom. I guess Shadow Queen is still correct, but you should also accept some variation of mushroom for that one. But I loved Super Mario Bros. and Metroid!

	WJLeonard:	Oct 24th, 2009 at 15:41 GMT	1 point
	For Super Mario Bros you should have 'in a different castle' as an acceptable answer. it vexed me :S oh and for Assassin's Creed 'a knight templar' should be acceptable too. and for the Jak/God of War ones can you change it to accept 'dad' too, cos i never write father. :@

	Iridium:	Oct 24th, 2009 at 15:42 GMT	1 point
	I think this is among the first quizzes I've seen Layton on. Creator wins ten cool points.

	Cheeseknight:	Oct 24th, 2009 at 18:47 GMT	0 points
	I fixed all of the above suggestions. I remember putting dad as an acceptable answer but it wasn't there when I checked again.

	Ah, some excellent games on here!

	Platypus222:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 04:18 GMT	0 points
	Great quiz! A lot of games I've never played, and I still missed some of the ones I had played, but still a great quiz. And the Golden Sun question just made me want to replay those games and wait for Golden Sun 3... A possible addition: Final Fantasy IV: Golbez is... Cecil's brother (or anything from the end like that)

	Platypus222:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 04:21 GMT	4 points
	Also, it makes me sad how low the answers for Mother 3, Mass Effect, and Lost Odyssey are. Three great RPGs there!

	Cheeseknight:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 05:00 GMT	1 point
	Final Fantasy IV was on the original set, but I cut it (Along with Pokemon Snap's Mew being the inhabitant of Rainbow Cloud, which didn't really work very well) for some more unique plot twists. I tried to incorporate games from all generations, but I couldn't think of many twists from the NES/SNES era. I also couldn't include Metal Gear Solid 4 because I have yet to finish it, but if I do a sequel to this quiz (Which I plan to) I'll be sure and include it and FF4. If anyone has any other suggestions, feel free to post them.

	vesiclewhisperer:	Oct 29th, 2009 at 03:37 GMT	1 point
	That's why i could never land the plane in top gun!

	cruehead:	Oct 31st, 2009 at 21:16 GMT	1 point
	Should accept Chinese Agent for EVA

	Otacon:	Nov 1st, 2009 at 20:13 GMT	1 point
	Couldn't get EVA (kept typing "Chinese" which was kinda dumb) which is a shame because MGS3 is one of my favorite games.

	Cheeseknight:	Nov 2nd, 2009 at 05:23 GMT	1 point
	I gave plenty of options for EVA (chinese spy, a spy, spy, then added agent, chinese agent, double agent, triple agent after cruehead's request), sorry that that particular answer gave so much grief.

	Kyusil:	Nov 28th, 2009 at 07:20 GMT	1 point
	The full name of Manfred's victim should be acceptable

	Pirate_Higemaru:	Nov 29th, 2009 at 02:30 GMT	1 point
	Mr.Blonde is not the leader of the Skedars. There are about a million Mr. Blondes.

	RS89:	Dec 3rd, 2009 at 09:15 GMT	1 point
	For God of War, could you please accept "Kratos's father" since that is the grammaticaly correct answer? Also, please accept "Scarlet Robe" for the Fable one.

	Lemonator:	Feb 17th, 2010 at 04:03 GMT	0 points
	Ok, mark spoilers please. Also, well put together quiz, but some of these are not twists. Also, the cake is a lie. I know it accepts it, but you're wrong.

	Cheeseknight:	Feb 26th, 2010 at 20:56 GMT	2 points
	You're being a bit aggressive over something so trivial, Lemonator. The cake was shown at the end credits - therefore not a lie. Sorry. That was the entire joke of the game.

	mybeaglebelle:	Apr 17th, 2010 at 13:01 GMT	1 point
	The Cake Is A LIE!

	stl100:	Jul 3rd, 2010 at 16:29 GMT	1 point
	Could do with accepting Darth Revan for Knights of the Old Republic.

	Laytruce:	Jul 3rd, 2010 at 16:33 GMT	1 point
	Tried 'made by Sturm' and 'a clone' for the Evil Andy one.

	Schaichopath:	Jul 6th, 2010 at 00:57 GMT	1 point
	I just tried "evil" and "dies" for ones I didn't know.

	Enormatron:	Jul 6th, 2010 at 18:23 GMT	1 point
	I loved the AVGN reference there. Anyway, for the KOTOR question, you should accept "Darth Revan", for Kingdom Hearts, you should accept "Xehanort", and for KH2, you should accept "DiZ". Other than that it was great.
