Default Geek mind: How many games can you identify from a single screenshot?

http://dom2d.squarespace.com/geek-mind/

A cool little quiz/game, but it can take a bit to load. My best score is 7050 but I'm sure some of you could do better.

375. I ended up skipping a lot of them. Admittedly, not very familiar with the older stuff.

How did old people survive way back in the olden days when video game characters were 10 pixels tall?

Got as high as 1500. Man I must have played a lot of games when I was younger. Only a few I didn't recognize at all.

1850. I got killed on the older games, skipped all of them. I never played any of the old NES games and I only played like 6 SNES games growing up, even N64/PS1 games I wouldn't remember.

It was ok 'cause our screens were only 20 pixels high, so the character still took up half the screen.

When I realized they had iPhone games in there I gave up.

I got to about 500 points in that time though.

Went through it, never gave me a score.

Waste of time. Don't bother.

Best I could do on the first try. I had to skip a lot of what seemed to be Wii, DS, and iPhone games. Skipped a few Atari games as well. Will try again later.

The game is kind of luck of the draw of what games you get and if they are ones that you know. I had like 10 iPhone/DS games in a row and it killed me.

50 points. This is like golf, the lower your score, the cooler you are.

No he just hit Prt Scr when he switched levels. You can see his score and that he still had 16 seconds left.

I dunno... it didn't start getting harder til after 10,000, almost failed at 13,000 but then hit about six or seven in a row to get my time back up all the way. Skipping doesnt give you a huge penalty, if you don't know it just X it and jump to the next one right away.
