Monday Mind Teasers 7/9/07 photo

You know how it works. With the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised video game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones. This week has an odd theme that might take a while to piece together. Even after you've got the theme down you might not realize its significance on one of the game covers right away, so try to think outside the box. Good luck!

Medium 1 would appear to be paperboy.

Is Easy 2 a Katamari game? Or Gundam?

To me, it seems like this one is based on games that had throwing items as the theme?

Yep, Hard 1 is Chuck Rock and Medium 1 is Paperboy.

Easy 2 isn't a Katamari or Gundamn game.

And no one has guessed the theme right yet.

Is the theme rock paper scissors or something?

Gomeja and Kif are both right - Super Paper Mario is Easy 2, and the theme is rock paper scissors. keep it up!

Yep, that just leaves the tricky one. Good luck with Medium #2

How was Chuck Rock supposed to be hard? (Assuming that no pun was intended, there.) That's the only one I got. I, like, never usually get any of these things.

Er, sorry. I'm feeling bitchy tonight. I need my milk.

I'm in the same boat as you Sharpless. I only got Chuck Rock and I never get any of these either!

Man this should've been Hard 1. I have no idea what that is, even with the theme.

Medium #2 is Postal

I forgot to mention in my rush to post that the connection to the theme is that the developer of Postal is Running With Scissors.

I'm guessing Chuck Rock is Hard due to the game's obscurity. I recognized the silhouette, but couldn't place the name.

And for some reason, I was thinking Medium #1 was Willy Beamish on the PC. Man, was I off...
