So my friend at work has sent me three images this morning:

Image 1

Image 2

Image 3

Each picture is a 6x6 grid with co-ordinates, and each grid square is a reference to a game. How many can you name?

if you provide answers then PLEASE enclose your answers in spoiler tags like this: [noparse]

[/noparse]. The previous code will look like:

Answers in here

I haven't looked to see how many I can get yet, but thought I would share it first.

And no, I don't have the answers somewhere.

Edit: I've attached the images to this post, I'm hoping they load ok from there, as it seems that Image 1 isn't loading properly from the URL anymore.

Edit 2: The thumbs are quite small, the board seems to have shrunk them somewhat :(

Suggest people post openly which image they're providing answers for and how many they've got so that those who are spoiler conscious don't have to peak but know roughly where you're up to.

I can tell you 4A is wrong, I have it if you want it.
I got 3D wrong, yours is right.
And grrr @ 6C:

I'm sorry but that does not look like a ghost, I thought it was a dinosaur print!
