You've only got 10 more to go Balla but yeah round 5 hasn't been buzzing and round 4 dropped off as well, what I've learned is we can manage three rounds of something.
Also if you're interested the questions are based around the 30 best games over 30 different systems with no repeats eg two Zelda games, that should have given plenty of variety.

Good Work Mas, much like Jay's quiz it was very enjoyable with a good mix of questions. I must admit I'm feeling a bit quizzed out now though.

Yep, what Smurf said. Top work, really nice mix of well know questions and less well know ones. There were one or two which made me groan and kick myself when I saw the answer- the sign of a truly good quiz, I reckon.

Thanks for running it Mas. My placing is pretty darn reflective: I don't know about the games but I still did every round.

Congrats to Drunka! Happy enough with my second place - I think I put my money where my mouth is as a quizmaster, at least.
By way of quiz law... that means Drunka's quiz is next if he fancies it.

I very quickly realised that I know the answers to precisely three of these, and one of those is the one everybody here will get. Maybe with a few lucky guesses I might get to 6-8? That's why I'm doing...
Joke Answers!:
Group A A1 Peter Molyneux was behind what Xbox series? Walking Slowly Along A Beach, Inhaling The Salty Air, Contemplating Life. It's one of Mas' favourites. A2 Which game from Capcom on Xbox used a controller with 40 buttons? Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing Reloaded. Incidentally I really didn't get on with MBTT when they made us do it in school. It had nothing on the best typing-teaching game, Being an Impatient Bastard in a Typing-Heavy Job. A3 Which year did Microsoft buy Mojang? The year Notch became an asshat, publicly. This isn't a joke. I wish it was. A4 What Xbox franchise will launch alongside the Xbox Series X? Men With Big Guns. They have big guns, and you see, they also have big guns. It's a pun. A5 What was the name of the Tiger in the Kinectimals E3 demo? Ty the Tasmanian.
Group B B1 Which PlayStation game would you find the character Dart? Stranger Things: the Action-Platformer. B2 Who is the director of the Team Ico games? OrangeRakoon. It's the only feasible reason for him wibbling on about SotC so much. B3 What was the last PS2 game? FIFA 2020: Legacy Edition. Famous for its realistic portrayal of entirely empty grounds. B4 The 3rd Birthday is the 3rd game in what series? Imagine Babies. B5 How many FIFA games including FIFA World Cup did the PS1 get? Too many.
Group C C1 The first western released Megami Tensei game Jack Bros. is on what Nintendo system? (snorts)Jack Bros.!? Really!? That's the joke here. I dunno, Virtual Boy or something, I can't top that. C2 How many official games does the Pokemon Mini have? The numbers questions are kinda tough to joke about. 151. C3 What Zelda game is currently number 1 on Metacritic? It was Breath of the Wild, but Mas hacked the site and it's now Faces of Evil. C4 Name the GameCube game which was playable online that isn't Phantasy Star? Phantasy Star 2. C5 Before Mario he was? A tormented soul running from his pasta.
Group D D1 Leonard Nimoy narrated what Dreamcast game? The biggest joke is that I know this one, but I'll say Hogs of War instead. D2 Which 2600 game is credited for being the first to have an Easter Egg? Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. D3 The Pippin is a system between what two companies? Apple and the BBC, following the latter's award-winning kids' TV show Come Outside. (Niche puns ahoy.) D4 What game is this? Walking Slowly Along A Beach, Inhaling The Salty Air, Contemplating Life 2: The Afterparty. D5 What console is this for? Google Stadia, that's why you've never seen one before.
Seriously, you can open that, there's not a genuine one amongst 'em.

Thanks guys, don't know why you can't see the picture as the others have answered and it shows for me. Very odd as recent picture you used elsewhere I couldn't see but others could.
Anyone that has issues viewing the picture, I'll give the 1 point
