It’s time for another weekly edition of SilverDragon’s Video Game Brain Teasers. If you can’t tell I’ve kind of become addicted to doing these on a weekly basis the past month. I’ve decided to mix it up again this week with a video game themed crossword puzzle. This crossword puzzle consists of 13 rows across and 11 columns down, all of which should be filled in with words or phrases related to video games. I have given clues to all 24 answers below. At the end of the day I will post an answer key if anyone is interested.
I recommend printing out the puzzle and clues and trying it out yourself, instead of just randonly guessing from the clues. Good luck everyone!
[Note:] Feel free to post answers below, but limit yourself to only answering 1 or 2 of the blanks. Please leave other people a chance to guess.

Bulkmailer you are correct on 5 down and 6 down.
5D) Ishimura
6D) SOnic.
Relax man. Don't answer them all! Read the note above. ;-)
11 down : Jade
Sure she's white?
Sorry, I'll stop now.
@Electro Lemon: 13 across is NOT Chun-Li. Sorry man.
10 across: Ecco
... restricting us to only 2 is like saying "only eat half that chocolate bar"! :(
... can I at least hint that 9 across starts with a "B"?
:)
11A starts with an E.
9 across: Bioshock
12 across: Bill
7 down: Ike
He sounds so dumb when he says it.
11 across: Elika.
5 across: Cid
9 across: Bioshock
oops, missed that bioshock was already found.
To make up for it:
8 down: Zelda
We have a bunch more correct guesses thanks to Scary Womanizing Pigmask, Electro Lemon, BulkMailer, and Justice.
9A) Bioshock
10A) Ecco
11A) Elika
7D) Ike
11D) Jade
12 Across is NOT Bill. Sorry Scary Womanizing Pigmask.
Congratz BrandNameCommercial for getting 5 Across and 8 Down.
5A) Cid
8D) Zelda
Hmm...is 8 Across Samus Aran?
12 Across: "RADD" Spencer?
BulleyMagnet got 8 Across right. Congratz man!
8A) Samus Aran
@Justice. 12 Across is not "RADD" Spencer. Sorry man!
Is 13 across Sakura?
Yes #13 across is Sakura. :-)
12 Across: "Tony" Hawk?
12 across : Gabe
Crapsicles, Bulkmailers answer makes a lot more sense.
1 across = ghost n goblins/ ghouls n ghosts
7A) niko
Sorry Justice, but BulkMailer got 12 Across first. It is Gabe, as in Gabe Newell from Valve.
12A) Gabe
@Fetusmilk: I didn't raelly plan on it being this way, but I guess #1 Across could be either Ghouls n Ghosts or Ghosts and Goblins. Personally, I planned on it being Ghosts n Goblins. You also got 7A Across right.
1A) Ghosts n Goblins
7A) Niko
What do we have left?
Here are the ones no one has guessed yet.
Across:
#2
#6
Here are the ones no one has guessed yet.
Across:
#2
#6
Down:
#3
#4
#10
#11
Anyone NEW want to guess the ones that are left, rather then those who have already guessed?
Is 6 across SolidSnake?
Is #3 down: Saints?
I think I know 4 Down, but I'll let someone else try it...also, I think someone already got 11 Down.
I'm either too stupid or too Dutch for this.
Magnalon got 2 more. Congratz man!
6A) Solid Snake
3D) Saints
There are still a couple more to get everyone. Here are the ones no one has guessed yet.
Across:
#2
Down:
#4
#10
#11
Bulkmailer already solved Down #11. That was one even I knew.
#2 across: Luigi?
Damn, you are right Takeshi, Bulkmailer did solve #11 down, and you just solved #2 across.
11D) Jade
2A) Luigi
All that is left is:
#4 Down
#10 Down
Dude, I give up. Those last two are to damn hard. All I can think of is Phobos for #10 Down, only because it fits but that doesn't make any sense to me. So yeah, I'd better get some sleep and look again tomorrow if someone else got it.
4D) Mario?
10D) Pip-Boy.
Man, you gave me a run for my money on that last one, I had to think for a good fifteen minutes before it finally clicked in me. :D
@Jack
I was going to say Mario, but I wasn't positive. As for PipBoy - wow! That was a clever clue, and great guess!
Oh damn. Of course. A bloody Pipboy.
