I've not see one of these in a while, so I figured why not:

I got 49%, which doesn't surprise me. I only own a PC these days; I've not owned a console in years.
Actually, my score was still higher than it really should've been, as I had some lucky guesses on a number of questions. Talk about pulling answers out of a dark place.... :dizzy2:

Way to many old school console questions. You could be a hardcore gamer for the last five years and not know it.
CR
72%. Not enough console experience.
59%.
All the questions about J-RPGs and obscured trivia from console gaming before i was born killed my score. :thumbsdown:

Bah, I got everything up to round 2 correct and most of round 3 too, but after that...
44%

It pays to be born in 1980.
Would that really make that much of a difference, though? I'm only 4 years older than you are, yet my overall knowledge is obviously still scanty by comparison.Quote:

Got lucky with some educated guesses, but the degree of difficulty in rounds 5 and 6 killed me. Not too bad for someone who has never owned a console.
The year is not sufficient enough, but when combined with other factors such as loving parents who are technologically-inclined and open to gaming, it does make a big difference.Quote:

69% at my highest.
46% I've never heard of most of those games...
100% until some Final Fantasy questions came my way.
Gah, ended up around 70%.
48%.
It's not my age, I was simply not interested in many of the games others consider classics, I played mostly Flight Sims in DOS, some questions about these wouldn't have hurt. :dizzy2:
Oh and before playing in DOS I played with Paint, had friends and read a lot more than nowadays.
40%
Way too many old SNES/N64 games there. I didn't own either of them...
And they had no questions about lemmings, which was the oldest game I played.

46%
Lower than expected :juggle:
48% to many old unheard of games, started easy soon became very hard, i guessed a bit to, i got the kirby question right caus ive played smash mario bro or wateva its called 4 the wii :laugh4:
53%.. o.O Being a very casual gamer born in '91 who doesn't play consoles, I fully expected to get 20-30%... though I got many, many lucky guesses. =D
72%. I tripped up on most of the MP and sport games questions.
55%. All those J-games and old school console questions, like those SNES questions I kept getting. :yawn: Was exited when I got a couple Silent Hill questions.
