    #34 is the original arcade game Street Fighter -- and #33 is ringing some serious bells but I haven't come up with it yet.

    Wow, this took you all no time at all. I also like how three different posters managed to somehow solve them in perfect reverse order.

    Yes, #33 is Myst, #34 is Street Fighter and #35 is Lunar the Silver Star.

    So here's the prizes:

    Wulfeluer can come up with questions #36 and #37
    Goldenband can come up with #38 and #39
    jb143 can come up with #40 and #41

    Anyone who doesn't want their prize can give their numbers to somebody else.

    I'm having trouble coming up with more because I've been playing mostly Myst lately so I feel like I'll be repetitive. But here's some Bonus Round to give you all some time:

    #BR2 - You know what rocks about this game? That you can defeat the villain either by feeding it to a plant or rocketing it thru the sky in a flying car.

    #BR3 - Minutes after shooting the food, both players were dead--in the game anyway. In real life, the one who shot the food was probably punched to death by the other player (you all know you've had this situation).

    #BR4 - I wander for eternity, eating what I find, while the undead torment me. My only solace is that I may one day find true love. Who am I?

    (Admittedly I'm not sure BR3 and BR4 are clear or specific-to-one-game enough but.... let's see how this goes)

    #BR3 - Gauntlet

    Glad I have a bit of time to think of mine, and that there's only 2. I'll be pretty busy this weekend preparing for a move.

    jb14 got BR3 and celery got BR2 and 4.

    Damn that was fast.

    Okay, so to buy more time:

    #BR5 - So by "transform into a fish, lion, or eagle" you actually mean put on vaguely fish/lion/eagle-themed spandex suits that give you the relevant powers.

    (I can't remember if the transforms were ACTUALLY labeled "fish, lion, and eagle" BTW so forgive me if my memory is off, but it was always something that struck me as weird about this game)

    And I'm too pressed for time but if that gets solved I'll come up with two more. Don't let the other guys forget their prizes!
