Welcome to first poetic guess the game where the winner will recieve accolade and major kudos from his peers if he gets it right.If he/she gets the answer wrong they are likely to be subjected to yoga while being made to watch Band of Brothers series back to back, oh sorry Saving Private Ryan 2.

Here goes.1 guess per person, written details avaliable on request.

My game, my game, has a very special name,
It sound realistic but is in fact very lame,
The crosshair is perfect,
The controls complete,
This is my song to a special special game.


I guess you want to know the format,
To you i say Boo!
This game is so special it rules,
People say i have bad taste,
Some people call me Maurice,
But i'll play play play play all night long.


Am i giving you enough clues,
I guess not so let me say,
Make a prayer and begin to play,
From corridors to castles our hero runs,
Encounters fools and highway men,
Sometimes human sometimes evil,
Where does our hero hide,
In the cracks of darkness where else.


And while we strafe from left to right,
Firing medieval weapons left and right,
And in the shadows of darkness he lurks,
To terrorise the neighbourhood.


Though midnight hour is close at hand
He does not giveadamn,
You must fill you purse while completing the mission,
Rhyme,rhyme,rhyme,rhyme,rhyme.


Ok ill give you a clue the game is on the P.C,
And is gothic in look and feel,
And if you have guessed the game,
Speak aloud and have your say.

Goddam was it that easy? 2 correct answers. Yes, you guessed it kids it was indeed Hexen 2. Give yourselves a pat on the back you clever people. I just read it again and i cringed with embarrassment, i thought my god that is awful (and easy :)). Anyhoo Apocalypse Now starts at 10. Well done and godspeed.

(just kiddin it was Thief)

Let's have a crack at it then:

My game, my game, has a very special name,
It sound realistic but is in fact very lame,
The crosshair is perfect,
The controls complete,
This is my song to a special special game.

So, what we've gathered from this, is that it has a realistic name - no "Spyhunter" here. It's realistic but not very good. It's a shoot em up and has very good controls. You must like the game. Shame you havn't written any reviews, then it might shed some more light on it. Damn n00bs (just kidding!).

I guess you want to know the format,
To you i say Boo!
This game is so special it rules,

But i'll play play play play all night long.

The main character is called Maurice and it can be played all night long, so it must have some longevity.

Am i giving you enough clues,

Make a prayer and begin to play,
From corridors to castles our hero runs,
Encounters fools and highway men,
Sometimes human sometimes evil,
Where does our hero hide,
In the cracks of darkness where else.

It's a religious game, and the levels range from corridors to castles. Sounds like an old-fashioned game, and a dark one at that.

And while we strafe from left to right,
Firing medieval weapons left and right,
And in the shadows of darkness he lurks,
To terrorise the neighbourhood.

Medieval weapons - yup, that proves my point! It is based in the olden days.


Though midnight hour is close at hand
He does not giveadamn,
You must fill you purse while completing the mission,
Rhyme,rhyme,rhyme,rhyme,rhyme.

Fill your purse eh? Sounds like a little collecting - no, thieving to do!

Ok ill give you a clue the game is on the P.C,
And is gothic in look and feel,
And if you have guessed the game,
Speak aloud and have your say

The game I'm thinking of is Gothic. With a little help from Grix (although I may have guessed it anyway), the game is indeed Thief...or Thief 2!
