Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. During the production of the Xbox 360, it was known by various codenames and working titles. Which of the below is NOT one of them?

Answer: Xbox Again

The Xbox 360 was the next generation console to follow on from Microsoft's original Xbox. The Xbox 360's biggest rival was the PlayStation 3, created by Sony, which offered a similar experience for players.
2. I am a huge Xbox 360 fan, however over the years I have had various issues with my beloved console. Which "issue" is most commonly known by its scary nickname?

Answer: Red Ring of Death

Ok, maybe that was an easy one! It is likely you have either experienced the three red segments or know someone who has. The actual cause of this is a "general hardware failure", normally caused by the solder coming loose. If you were, say, halfway through a boss in "Dark Souls" and this ring appeared, there is a possibility that you smashed up your house.
3. Let us talk about launch titles. They usually are hyped up beyond belief and often fall short of such hype. One title however did not fail to impress. Which "Call of Duty" game was an Xbox 360 launch title?

Answer: "Call of Duty 2"

The "Call of Duty" series is long running and has had some amazing titles, as well as some not so good titles. "Call of Duty" was developed by Infinity Ward.
4. In my humble opinion there are not enough hard games on the market. Namco Bandai must share this sentiment, as proven with the release of their incredibly hard but also incredibly fun title in 2011. What was it called?

Answer: Dark Souls

"Dark Souls" is one of my favourite games. It is very difficult and you will die a lot, hence the later released "Prepare to Die Edition" for PC. However, if you have the patience, you will be rewarded with a fantastic journey full of rewards.
5. If you own an Xbox, it is very likely you own at least one of Bungie's "Halo" games. Can you tell me the name of the game's main protagonist?

Answer: Master Chief

Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 is the face of "Halo" and features in many games in the series as the protagonist. Chicago DJ Steve Downes provided his voice, portraying him as a strong, silent type.
6. What innovative piece of hardware was released in 2010 that would allow players to use their limbs and voice to control the characters in the game?

Answer: Kinect

The Kinect was groundbreaking and had fairly positive reviews across the board. The next generation Kinect for the Xbox One opened up even more possibilities for the player.
7. Should you wish to play your Xbox 360 online, a paid membership is needed. If you do this, you are a specific type of Xbox Live member. What are you?

Answer: Gold

Playing online can provide hours of entertainment, as well as some serious temper tantrums. The PlayStation Network, Sony's equivalent online service, was free to use on the PlayStation 3 and there was some criticism that you must pay for this on the Xbox.
8. In addition to normal games, the Xbox Marketplace offers a vast variety of arcade games that you can purchase and download. In 2008, we were treated to a fantastic arcade game in which you could manipulate time and solve puzzles. What was it called?

Answer: Braid

"Braid" received universal acclaim and rivalled some games that you buy on the high street. The graphics are simple but gorgeous and the idea of manipulating time makes for an amazing game.
9. Console-exclusive games can be frustrating if you do not have that console. Which is the only game below available for both the PS3 and Xbox 360?

Answer: Bioshock

"Halo" is Xbox only, and "Gran Turismo 5" and "The Last of Us" are PS3-exclusive. Console-exclusive games are normally developed by first-party developers, but there are a few exceptions.
10. "Gears of War" is a tactical third person shooter that is much loved by players of the Xbox 360. How many games in the series released on the Xbox 360?

Answer: Four

"Gears of War" was released in 2006 to much anticipation, and did not disappoint, receiving universal acclaim across the board. This third-person shooter went on to release three further titles for the Xbox 360.
