I missed this morning's sesh too, was far too late and I think this one was easier than last one so all the answers were guessed.

Will be waiting "on tenderhooks" for the 14:00 release...

Since the issue of "wrong section" seems to be a highly pressing and important matter (and because I have a day off), I've decided to conduct a rigorous scientific investigation* to shed some more light on it. Apparently, since the inception of this venerable site there were 86 quizes. They originally started in the "Games/software" section and that's where the majority (62) of them remained.

Make out of it what you wish 8-)

Nine minutes past two, GMT. Where's the fast, furious Ready Money Roind?

*** BONUS ROUND ***

For this round, simply identify the games used in each picture. A point is awarded for each correct game identified, and you don't necessarily need to identify every game used in any one picture, just give the number of the picture which corresponds to your answer (some games "may" have been used more than once for different pictures). There are no limits on posting or guesses, it's a free-for-all round. :D

3: The head and brain is from the loading screen of either Blood & Guts, or Fantastic Voyage - whichever you prefer, they used the same loading screen, only with the title changed. No idea about the small man.

4: Manic Miner (obviously!). The rat (and probably most of the scenery) is from Fantasy World Dizzy. No idea about the stove.

No idea about the rest.

Gah! I was hoping you wouldn't notice. Amazing what a difference a few pixels can make...
