Nope, sorry.

Here's a hint: every word in number 3 has the same importance as the others. Even the order in which they are listed is meaningful.

Edit: I better quote the whole thing again for the new page:

1. Loom, Zoom, Boom, Ladies' Room!

2. Slam! That! Desk! For! Emphasis! (EDIT: Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney, solved by Chopper!)

3. Suffering, Terror, Oblivion, Rage, Woe. (EDIT: Metal Gear Solid 3, solved by Simonsloth!)

4. Such... "aggressive" equestrianism, boy. Literally. (EDIT: Shadow of the Colossus, solved by Chopper!)

5. Formula One in quiet towns. (EDIT: F-Zero, solved by PressEscToExit!)

6. stab stab stab costume stab (EDIT: Assassin's Creed, solved by Simonsloth!)

7. Spider and Scorpion? I'm in! (EDIT: Deadly Creatures, solved by Leon!)

8. Eat, walk, fight, melodrama, repeat. (EDIT: Yakuza, solved by Simonsloth!)

9. The opposite of Mom Time. (EDIT: D(e)ad Space, solved by kintaris!)

10. Just brush it off, bitch. (EDIT: Okami, solved by Simonsloth!)

Yes, although Chopper solved it first, I'm afraid.

Neither, I'm afraid.

In case you missed the hint: Every word in number 3 has the same importance as the others. Even the order in which they are listed is meaningful.

I'll give another hint if you guys get stuck for too long. Number 3 is a bit difficult.

If you want help on a specific one, maybe I could give a hint in spoiler tags?

1. Loom, Zoom, Boom, Ladies' Room!

I’m clutching at straws but I loomed, zoomed and boomed in Deus Ex. I also got a telling off for exploring the ladies room, whoops.

2. Slam! That! Desk! For! Emphasis!

Ha! Not bad, but no.

Hint: The one word who doesn't really fit is also by far the least important.

Correct, but has already been solved...

Very warm! But perhaps think of it in a less strictly... episodic way?
You're close, though! :P

No. Let's just say the answer to this one might divide people between "ha, clever!" and "that's lame!".
Again: The one word who doesn't really fit is also by far the least important.

Edit: My next tip would have been "The 3 was a hint all along!" :lol:
