Title: Guess the PC Engine game Haiku quiz
Post by: _Paul on 07/18/2011, 05:12 PM
See if you can guess the game from this haiku. If you win, make your own:

I look front and rear
The wheel approaches, spinning
I switch to three-way.

Side Arms or Space Fantasy Zone?

Post by: ccovell on 07/18/2011, 09:07 PM
Definitely Sidearms.

<smartass>
Paul, what you wrote doesn't qualify as a haiku, so it's just a normal senryu.

It was Side Arms.

I'll let BT win even though he posted two answers.

I've changed my mind - the correct answer was Sol Moonarge, so the floor is now B.T.'s.

Obsessed with the past,
I jump off into nowhere --
And freeze up mid-game.

No, you were almost there with your last one....  it'd just be unfair to criticize a perfectly-working HuCard.

Do you mean specifically, the CD version of Altered Beast?
Title: Re: Guess the PC Engine game Haiku quiz
Post by: ccovell on 07/28/2011, 10:09 AM
Yes, CrackTiger gets it!  (Sorry Blueraven.)   :wink:

Of course the haiku is about the game's freezing as its code jumps off into system card code that no longer exists post System Card 1.0.

Since he guessed correctly, but didn't type out clearly enough what he was thinking off, blueraven can go again if he wants. I do have a new one ready to go if he passes though.

This should be the last hint I need to give.

Two and a half names from the game appear on the haiku. :)
