And now...those wacky entries:

Question #1: You'd be amazed how many people thought they'd be clever and stick in "Rise of the Triad" for this one. :)

"Uuugh, don't kill me... aaagggh...oooow... it hurts... aaagh... I'll be back"
-- Pedro Eduardo Gomez T.

"I thought Hitler killed himself in WW2. Oh, that's where the dastard

-- Latta

"Ack! Nien! roughly translates to "cant get enough of that sugar crisp"

"Question #1 is a trick question. The game actually starts with Episode 4. So, the final episode is 6, not 3. We will see episode 3 with ID's next release, Wolfenstein: Return to 3D, in 2002."
-- Konrad Blitzboy

"I didn't even know that was Hitler... I always thought it was some cyberdemon from hell... hmm too much Doom I guess... damn you ID :)"

Question #2: Got some clever ones in here...and some really vulgar ones as well.

"Big robot smash up and 50 foot woman 2"

"1- Mobile: Shogo Armor
2- Armor: Shogo Mobile"
-- Guido

"Big, big ugly robots" and "WTF is a Shogo?"
-- Conan Ford

"Pata-Pie Doki Doki Mech Challenge"
"Large Irritated Robots Stomp Things"
-- Colin Williamson

"First they came up with 'The game with only three different weapons not including the cat, and no AI, but enemies that can shoot through walls before seeing you and never miss' but that gave away too much about the game. Then they came up with 'The game that takes six hours to get to the end but if you make the wrong decision you can't actually get to the last few levels!" but that, when translated into the French, reads as 'C'est un poop du poop' and the French FCC wouldn't let them get away with THAT!"
-- Travis Nichols

"Schlongo: Many Armed Diversion?"
-- Leakey

"Big Mech and the Little Squishie; Project 'MEAT'"
-- Brock South

"I think it was Shogo: AGWNRAOSSSAHIAPM.... better known as Shogo: Another Game With Nasty Robots And Other Such Spiffy Stuff And Hitler Is A Potty Mouth."
-- Joseph Palermo

Question #3: For the last time, people, the answer to every trivia question is not Rise of the Triad! Although I have to admit, three out of four times it makes for a pretty good guess.

"GLChex Quest and/or Rise Of The Triad."
-- Dotstry 'Florist' Jackson

"You lied?? It's Rise of the Triad again isn't it!"
-- Patrick Rodriguez

"Well we all know its not ROTT, it had better not be ROTT, for the love of god don't make it ROTT!!!! So lets say Duke Nukem, who also has a potty mouth, which we all know, because he's actually Hitler."
-- Joseph Palermo

"Rex Hunt's Real World Fishing?"
-- Leakey

"Sim City"
-- Shawn

"I think this is going to be Duke3D, though I'm not sure. Unless you mean the incredible Coconut Monkey level for Quake II "Fish In A Barrel". Talk about fish-eye...."
-- Graham Mitchell

"It had to be Quake. LONG LIVE THE DOPEFISH!"
-- Jonathan Stockho

There you go, everyone...hope you all had fun...and hey! Kick butt! It's another contest! Enter away!
