Can You Name The Video Game By The Song?

General Discussion
#1

Was bored at work and found this on sporcle. Pretty good time killer.

Can you name the video games from clips of music from their soundtracks? - sporcle

Pretty good. It has 90 games to name.

I took it and was very sad afterwards for naming so little. I knew at least 5-6 more but for the life of me I could not remember the name of the game.

I got only 18 out of 90…I am ashamed:sad:

Any way how many can you name?

im no triforce, but i did get 23.

#3

Thanks for posting that. I got 22 out of 90.

At least 3 tunes i recognized but didn’t know where they were from, and two i got right were just randomly typed in and i got lucky.

#4

you don’t stalk underage white girls on the net?

#5

wow…I"m afraid of taking this test since I somewhat pride myself on knowing tracks from games I’ve played. I feel like I’ll be sadly disappointed in myself but I can recognize quite a few from the preview. Listening to remixes from games I haven’t played helps.

Edit:

Lmao…I was not expecting a track from that Sonic game to be in this…

#6

I got 32, a few I recognized, but didn’t put down in time.

I’m just glad that the ones I truly missed were games I never played :rofl:

#7

I got 39, most of the old ones. I can’t believe I missed the RCR one. I knew it sounded so goddamn familiar too! There are some blatantly obvious ones of course, but there are a few games on here that I doubt many people have ever played, much less remember the music to…

^_-;

#8

i got 19

i know when i look at the results ill be made cause i definitely recognized a few songs

#9

Haha lol, I got…8
Actually 9 because I kept entering Doctor Layton instead of Professor Layton.

I only missed two games I actually played, one of which I played less than 15 years ago.
This is fun!

#12

30/90
Got most of the oldschool rpgs which im happy with

#13

I got 40/90.

Only missed 3 or 4 that I actually knew, The other ones were games I didn’t spend a lot of time with.

I spent the whole 20 mins by the way, it was a lot more fun than I anticipated.

It was really strange, I remembered some of the ones from games I hadn’t played in ten years or so.

I could recognize what system they were on by the way they sounded at least for the nes snes genesis ones.

Also I could guess the developer on a few of them but still didn’t know what game it was.

Stuff you never think about until you focus really hard.

I recognized a few, but weren’t able to get them. In total, I got 28 correct. However, I would have gotten 29 if I stopped typing “Sonic and the Seven Rings,” and actually typed the correct name.

I have to say though, they chose the most obscure music for Persona 4. Why not go with the battle theme or one of the major boss themes?
