Here it is:

78:6a:6a:66:3a:2f:2f:79:6a:69:6a:65:65:78:71:68:74:2e:73:65:63:2f:66:6b:70:70:62:75:2f:59:70:68:7a:69:31:49:57

This is probably pretty easy, given the stuff I normally see here, GLHF!

No contrib. You have until Jan 10, 9am CST.

It seems to me that some people might need a little help, well, here's a few hints:

  1. No Hints, it's easy.

  2. One of the few games of this type available for DOS.

  3. Shareware.


Solutions:

Use a Hex -> Ascii Converter, get this: xjjf://yjijeexqht.sec/fkppbu/Yphzi1IW

Which is encoded with a Caesar cypher, shift of 11: http://itstoohard.com/puzzle/Izrjs1SG

The answers to the quiz are

  1. F-Zero

  2. One Must Fall 2097 - Which is currently available as freeware, for those interested

  3. Major Stryker - Which is also available for free at the 3dRealms website (Who used to be known as the shareware publisher Apogee...)

Does the title of the 3rd one have to be exact, e.g. if it is like part of a series or something where the title is two words without a space, or something...?

EDIT:
That's it, I'm done - that 3rd one is just too vague; that genre was over-saturated as it was, so the image doesn't help.

Edit 2:
Well, not one person has figured out image 3 yet still eh? Never mind, I see 13 people have solved it - yay, now I don't feel so bad... :(

Unfortuantely I won't be adding any more hints, I think the current number of solvers proves that it is possible enough. However, In hindsight it might have been wiser to choose a shorter giveaway length.
