78% for the same reason, as well as not reading a couple easy questions.

84%

I consider myself a casual gamer, maybe five hours a week, though I was more hardcore back in my Uni days.

And a lot of those questions were amazingly game-specific. If you didn't play a particular game, you're just left guessing. More general game questions about hardware, the industry, culture, etc. would have been better than ten trivia questions and forty "here's a screenshot, what game is it from?" questions.

I got 64%, which is probably quite accurate. I go through phases of gaming. I haven't owned a system for over a year, so my gaming is at zero right now. I used to play quite a bit a few years ago though. Part of me wants to pick up an Xbox 360 now.

88% for me. I love the questions on the old school games like Duke Nukem 3d and Carmageddon.

64% Only because I went on a 6 question hot streak of guessing the right one.

LOL at Duke Nukem 3D and Carmageddon being old school.

78%... but I've kind of fallen off the gaming bandwagon over the last couple of years.

Yeah exactly. I've never owned a fighting game so I was left in the dark on several questions.

I ended up with an 82%.

I guessed 2 out of the first 20 then quit, don't know any of those.

The only thing I've played in the past 10 years is the EA NHL games.

58% I knew some, but also discovered I'm a hell of a guesser. It still says "Nice one, I guess you are a gamer". I don't really think I am...

Hey, I'm married with three kids and I got 92%!!!!! That's a sign that I've been playing games way too long. I manage to sneak in games that are not appropriate for the kids (that's a lot of games!) and play some that are appropriate with the kids. The wii in general is awesome to play with the kids.
