I have not made giveaways here for a long time. Trading is pretty much dead and so I don't have incomes anymore, gifting games is difficult now, for me at least.
This puzzle is to make up for all the things I won, for my high rep (more than 650 as now), for the new year, for the new website and for my kind-of upcoming birthday.

Do you remember the New Year Giveaway Puzzle I did an year ago? Well it's time for it, again.
So, as last year, I'm currently working on a top 10 of my favourite games from the ones I played in 2014, and decided to cut out the intro video to make my channel trailer.

This time I decided to separate the puzzle into three difficulty levels, harder game to guess (or at least, the ones I consider harder) grant you better giveaways.

HINT: there will be hints this year too.

So yeah, try it, you've got almost a month. Also, if you enjoy the video, please consider leaving a like and/or subscribing to my channel.
Also, sorry if some of the clips are really short this year too, but I did my best to fit everything in one video.

The video is now public!
If you want a warm up here's the last year one.

EDIT: since the giveaways leaked, I suggest you not joining them since I'll ask a re-roll for everyone who entered from today onwards.

EDIT2: I'm creating giveaways for groups only now, if I somehow confused the games or can't give the same I wanted to don't blame me, I lost all the datas since I had to delete everything, and maybe some of the keys too. If someone remembers wich games were connected to wich puzzle level it would be appreciated.
And for the ones who asked, here's the solutions:

Easy Mode:

  • Mario Kart Wii
  • Card City Nights
  • Botanicula
  • Cthulhu Saves the World
  • BIT.TRIP RUNNER
  • PAC-MAN™ Championship Edition DX+
  • Alan Wake's American Nightmare
  • Skullgirls
  • AaAaAA!!! - A Reckless Disregard for Gravity
  • Gears of War 2
  • You Have to Win the Game
  • The Plan

Normal Mode:

  • A Bird Story
  • Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary
  • Evoland
  • Type:Rider
  • The Blackwell Legacy
  • Far Cry
  • No More Heroes
  • Ace Combat Assault Horizon - Enhanced Edition
  • BIT.TRIP FATE
  • Duke Nukem
  • Guilty Gear Isuka
  • HAWKEN
  • Savant - Ascent

Hard Mode:

  • Edna & Harvey: The Breakout
  • Diehard Dungeon
  • SATAZIUS
  • Love
  • The Expendabros
  • RoboBlitz
  • KRUNCH
  • They Breathe
  • BIT.TRIP VOID
  • Auditorium
  • NYR: New York Race

Honestly, this has been too much stress for me, so I don't think I'll do it ever again.

It's from Super Robot Wars, a videogame franchise.

They made three anime series based on it, but I don't know if this unit was used (Its name is Gespenst Mk-II)

Most of them are. There are two GBA and a Nintendo DS (Original Generation 1 and 2 on GBA, Original Generation Saga Endless Frontier on DS) games with official translations (Made by Atlus) and, there are a few unofficial translations for some other games (Alpha Gaiden on PSX, J on GBA, the first three games in the series.)

Letting you know just in case you want to play them someday :P.

I like puzzles. Spend an hour or two solving.
2:46-2:48 maybe be too short of a segment to understand what I'm seeing, specially since at the beginning and the end the transition from/to the previous/next game blurs it.
Last one on hard.

2:46-2:48 is an easier one that's why there is less time.

Perhaps for those that are all ready familiar with the game or even played it :P
The last question was rather easy to search for for me.

Looks like some sort of puzzle sort of game with, guess pixel graphics and/or OLD blockly visuals.

edit: solved hard! nice giveaways.
