I'll Name That Game In Five! (The Return!)

[Simonsloth]

Whoops. There was a big deal over the lack of skid marks in one of the forza demos. So I thought maybe this was a niche reference.

I don’t know if I’ll ever get these.

[kintaris]

Or king of fighters?

No winners there unfortunately Simonsloth.

[KSubzero1000]

I don’t know if I’ll ever get these.

If you've solved the MGS3 one, you can solve this one.
I have complete and utter faith in you.

Oh, and in my defense, I didn't know about the controversy surrounding the Forza demo. Sorry for the misleading tip.

[Simonsloth]

Ok what about “midtown madness”

Surely a midtown counts as quiet, can’t remember if there were any skid marks?

[KSubzero1000]

No, sorry.

Gotta go quieter than that, mate.

Yes but I was/am a massive metal gear solid nerd so i would have been gutted to have not got that one

10. All Time Royal Balls Up

Dynasty Warriors?

6. stab stab stab costume stab

Apologies, this is probably the worst guess ever but ?costume quest? Costumes, stabbing and time travel. Surely I’m not right

[ColinAlonso]

6. Dolling up for Victorian rescue

Stacking? Not sure if the time period is right. Also Simon might have put Double Fine in my head.

[Simonsloth]

Yes! That’s got to be it

[KSubzero1000]

6. stab stab stab costume stab

Apologies, this is probably the worst guess ever but ?costume quest? Costumes, stabbing and time travel. Surely I’m not right

No, sorry...

My 6. is really not that great in retrospect.

Also, according to the rules in the OP, you can't use any names or words from the title in your riddle, so Costume Quest wouldn't work.

[Simonsloth]

Oh well. I think my guesses are getting worse with every attempt. Im a bit of a completionist so this is killing me.

Other guess for the same clue was bayonetta

He's got it! Good work.

7. Three's sea, five's a sky...

Spoiler: show

Super Mario Bros. 3

Made me laugh that my first thought was somehow the Shock "series." The third would be Bioshock and fifth is Infinite. It fits perfectly, except not being one game.

Interesting angle, but incorrect! This one is a groaner if anyone gets it. Think of it as more of a cryptic crossword clue than a description.

5. Bludgeoning gardener? Works on paper.

Spoiler: show

Minecraft? You spend quite some time beating up trees and crafting materials such as paper.

7. Three's sea, five's a sky...

Okay, this is a complete shot in the dark, but...

...For Honor?

[Simonsloth]

Spoiler: show

medal of honor - pacific assault and airborne

7. Three's sea, five's a sky...


Edit:

Just realised how many games there are in the series for this guess. Oh well. Should have done my research before posting

harvest moon or stardew valley

ksub has given me inspiration although I think his ideas are better

[kintaris]

Ksub, you're on the right lines with 5 and really really on the right lines with 7!

A clue:

Spoiler: show

7 is a sequence, you've only applied it to the first half.

Keep going with that gardening theme for 5, guys!
