i would like to reiterate that most of these quiz answers (except for the one i'm about to post) require two things: the name of the game, and where in the game it's from. in light of that, the winner was david, but he only got a 50% since he only named games. hah. ok time for the next one:

the final fantasy games have had some of the best music in gaming. the following five songs are from five different final fantasy games, 6-10. each one is the battle music from each game. i have mixed them up and numbered them 1 to 5. determine which battle music belongs to which iteration of the series. i've provided direct links to the songs if the player for some reason doesn't work for you, or if you want to just download them and use a media player to listen to them.

edit: i forgot to link back to my facebook note: facebook note
if you don't have xanga you can leave answers there. don't have facebook or xanga, you suck.

previous quiz answers:
easy
a) contra (part 1 on nes)
b) level 1 - jungle
medium
a) marvel vs. capcom (part 1)
b) medium 1: character select, medium 2: spider-man theme
hard
a) sim city 4
b) both are when you are managing your city (and not when you are, for example, terraforming)
very hard
a) ninja gaiden 2 (nes)
b) cut scene - when ryu first sees the castle demonic

the winner was jnut. he got 2. haha. so, ok, i think i made that one a little too hard. lemmie try again. this time the quiz might be more enjoyable to take. oh yeah, it's against the rules to answer with a list. it's also against the rules to read someone else's answer before you post yours, so type your answer somewhere else just as a preventative measure, then copy and paste it into the comment box when you're done. or something.

same type of quiz as last time. listen to the following clips of various length.
name a) the game it is from, and b) the level/part of the game it is heard in

easy

medium 1

medium 2

hard

very hard

i tried to make the difficulty as follows, and will continue to for quizzes of this sort:
easy: if you have played video games before, you should know this
medium: if you have played this particular game before, you should know this
hard: you would have to have played this game a lot in order to know this
very hard: variable difficulty. ranges from very hard to extremely hard to damn near impossible to you have to have made the quiz to get it right
