    Well, there are no answer sheets to these riddles, but consensus on the internet seems to be Scribblenauts or Street Fighter: The Third Strike

    I have the other one as well, just thought I'd portion it out a bit.

    Dangit... someone needs to get 3C. I have no clue and it's starting to bother me.

    3C has been bugging me as well. I feel like I should know it but just can't make the mental leap required to figure it out apparently.

    I cracked on 1A and B though and looked at your answers Yearg. Never would have gotten 1A since I've never heard of it (or at least wouldn't have known I got it) and was foiled on 1B because it's so hard to read apparently. Had no idea what it was supposed to say.

    Edited in two more I did get though.

    To be fair, I've only played a handful of these, but I'm familiar with lots of titles even if I don't know crap about the game. I couldn't even tell you what type of gamer Killer 7 is. I just have heard the title and it came to mind.

    My guess on 3C is that it's just something I've never heard of. Something to do with blackness/darkness and time or maybe afternoon. I can't imagine the significance of the specific time and I would've assigned significance to the numbers if not for the PM.

    Consensus on the internet is that 3C is most likely: (SPOILER)Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness

    So yeah, you were definitely on the right track, Yearg.

    and Yearg's answers now double as the answer sheet for this quiz! They're all on the other answer sheets I've seen.

    I haven't played a solid chunk of the ones I did get either, but I am familiar with a lot of titles. I finally cracked and looked at everyone's answers though, and aside from some of the more obvious ones in retrospect that I was missing (SPOILER)like Megaman, Killer 7, Little Big Planet, etc. I wasn't familiar enough with the others to have ever figured them out. (SPOILER)Mostly talking about Lost in Blue, Altered Beast, and whatever the hell 5F is supposed to be.

    As for 3C, my brain was kind of running down the same lines of thought, mostly focusing on the fact that at 4:53pm it should still be light out in most places but there's darkness around it. Maybe something to do with night. Really have no idea, and now my brain has gotten stuck on the dark hour in Persona 3 and I can't seem to get off of that because I'm 99.9% sure that'd be wrong.

    EDIT: Damn you and your beating me to the post Levian.

    Bah. Never heard of it... had to Google. I've heard of Disgaea, but I guess I wasn't familiar with the subtitle.
