The "Nearly Impossible" Fallout quiz

Post » Tue May 10, 2011 9:42 pm

"Nearly Impossible"? Did they mean, "Nearly Impossible" to get a single question wrong? Maybe if you've never played either game and were just making random wild-ass guesses.

Geez, I hope the guys at IGN don't release anymore brain-busters...I might miss a question next time. :snoring:

I aced that [censored] [censored]. #10 almost had me, same with the one with the ghoul getting vaporized, but in the back of my head, I knew better. IGN, you disappoint me. a lot of it was given away from vegetation/geographical stuff, and if you had played both games you'd have to be mentally unfit to play video games to get more than 5 or 6 wrong.

My hatred came more from the fact there were 20-25 seperate freaking pages to cycle through. A normal person would fix it up in one page. morons. :confused:


Yeah, I thought it had like 30 questions answered when I looked at the number in the Webbox

I seem to be unable to partake in the quiz. It's just a page with screenshots and a poll at the bottom. (I answered FO3).

Edit: Nevermind.. you have to look at the answer to get the next question.

It took me 10 minutes to realize this, I got 20/20, That quiz svcked.

100%.

The indoor shot with the computer has more people wrong than right. :P

And wow, almost 50% of the people didn't recognize the giant ice cream man statue from Paradise Falls...for shame.

Nailed them all. 100%

The tough one for me was the Ghoul getting ashed by the laser rifle. Many you just needed to look at the weapon CND bar to know what game it was from.

That quiz was awful. I aced it, simple things gave it away, especially the weapons.

Cant believe alot of people got the Paradise Falls question wrong. My biggest complaint about this "Difficult" quiz was the number of pages you had to go through..

100% :D

I managed to slip by with a 100%. That terminal photo was a close one, though.

100%, for number 10 notice the CND meter on the HUD that is unique to New Vegas

I could have put the whole quiz on one page, and my website-making experience is one semester of a Computers course.

The only one I missed was the computer terminal.

Is it sad I only had to look at the landscape ones for a flash second to know which was F3 and which was F:NV? :cryvaultboy:


That was the only one I got that one wrong as well.

Same for me. I've hacked that terminal too, much. (It might have been a different terminal)

Great quiz. I missed two. I didn't figure out the Ghoul or the Paladin.

100% yay!

#10 was luck though. Or did someone here find any indication of what game the screenshot simply had to be?

There was 1 major flaw in the quiz which made it far to easy to solve though :(

Nearly Impossible? if that is slang for easiest quiz ever then yes it is. 100%

Come on guys how did you miss the laser gun ghoul? It was in the Fallout 3 trailer for Pete's sake!

Quiz was very easy. The terminal one almost threw me, but I noticed the thing the protectrons are kept in NV off to the side.

The door behind the terminal is a bit of a giveaway as well as the door on your right being open that has another terminal. That's the start of the REPCONN HQ.

And yeah, there was one major flaw. However, I didn't bother to look at it since I went from top to bottom.

To be honest, I never watched the trailer. I just knew it was inside the Dunwich Building. :thumbsup: The lighting gave it away in the middle.

Edit: Yeah.. Got 20 / 20. Wasn't hard because of said flaw but most of them were just common knowledge if you remember your travels in both Wastelands.
