Monday Mind Teasers: Welcome to Miami photo

You know how it works! With the help of each other, try to figure out all of the disguised game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones.

This week, in honor of Dtoid's anniversary, I'm giving you guys the theme as my present to you. It's not just games related to Miami, but instead games with titles that revolve around cities, countries or continents. That leaves you about a million different places to consider, plus plenty of hard teasers this week, so don't be afraid to shout out ideas and work together as a team to solve them all. One of the easy teasers is basically already solved to get you started, so good luck!

P.S. If you haven't voted on last week's No More Heroes VS Super Mario Galaxy game debate yet, then tonight is your last chance.

Actually, not sure at all about SA Rush. Maybe a Daytona game, but I can't find which.
