Guess that song #1 (and #2 I guess) #2 will have goodies for completion

No idea on 1 or 5. Thanks for the chance!

Once this hits 20 players I will add more hints

Got 'em all but the last one. Fun topic, by the way! :)

Edit: Now that I know what track 5 is, I'm listening to the whole song. :P

updated hints

okay 3rd round of hints with band/artist/game names

Solved. I discovered a lot of shmup songs before the hint ^^

ok people who finally solved them, let me know your thoughts

Solved. This was the ideal puzzle for me. I don't like overly difficult ones and this wasn't too hard. I don't like loads of questions so only having 5 questions was a relief. The hints were direct and very helpful.

so funny! thanks a lot! =)
Falco is famous even here in Italy but I didn't know about the cover version of that song =P
great hints, I liked it ^^
though, the fifth one is really difficult for me XD

I can´t get the last one. It doesn´t help that I never ever heard of that game before.

Finally got it :D

I'd say 10 seconds is enough, but you can experiment with WHICH 10 to use, it doesn't have to be the beginning of the song. (if some of them are not - sorry, at least they sounded like that!)

Second challenge up

bump

Eventually got all the ones from the first group (knew some of them, but the Touhou I would have never guessed without the hints). I've got 3/5 from the second puzzle so far, I recognize one of the last two clips but not enough to know where from...

looks like we got our first winner of challenge 2

Nice puzzle, but I will never be able to solve it without some Google help, I think... :D

Cheers!

First challenge completed! 😊

I was only able to get 2 out of 5 from the second challenge, but bump for a fun little event. :)
