Here's my idea. One person gives a trivia question. Once it is answered, someone give
another trivia question. And so on. Hopefully this will work.

EDIT - I've decided to change things. We'll make one big thread full of trivia questions. No guessing needed.

Question:
How did the videogame Dead or Alive get its name? (people who watch Icons on G4 should get this easily)

Answer:

Spoiler

At the time, Tecmo was losing money every year. The game was they're big gamble. It's success was going to literally determine if Tecmo was going to be dead or alive the following year. At least that's how the creator explained it on G4.

dead or alive?

dead or alive?

Yes, simple typing error.

I was thinking, what would be better. Having people try to answer, or to just have the answer as a spoiler in the same post (the answer in spoiler tags)? Like, we just make a big collection of gaming trivia, and you don't have to go searching for the answer?

EDIT - I've decided to change it this way. Anyone contribute any trivia you want and just spoilertag the answer below.

Itagaki is a big fan of 80's synthpop.

Sounds exactly like the origin of the name "FINAL FANTASY," heh.
