    I recently got his puzzle in my copy of "Wired" this month and really enjoyed it. For us gamers, it's really easy.

    Many a videogame has been followed by a lame knockoff that apes the original. Something's surely missing from each imitator described here-specifically, one letter of each game's title. (tip: the digits in parentheses indicate the number of letters per word). For example, if the clue if "This toe-tapping rhythm game is all about survival of the fittest (5 5 9)" the answer would be DANCE DANCE EVOLUTION. As an added bonus, the omitted letters spell out these game's release type.

    1: This action game's archaeologist-heroine robs Brokaw, Skerrit, and Bombadil. (3 6)
    2: This old-school shooter lets you blast athletes' syringes into atoms (8 )
    3: This Japanese RPG features Pooh's feline friend bouncing through time. (6 6)
    4: This shooter with chainsaw guns requires great power of hearing. (4 2 3)
    5: In this arcade classic, you race around a maze, gobbing up Dell and Gateway machines. (2-3)
    6: In this driving game, you get hit with insane government fees. (5 3)
    7: In this action-adventure title, you can buy Iran--if you have the cash. (5 2 6)
    8: In this puzzle game, your bagel's salmon keeps exploding. (4 3)
    9: This IQ booster features continuous helpings of fiber-rich content (4 3)
    10: This space combat title lets you rise to the rank of Admiral of Fake Hair (3 9)
    11: This art deco shooter involves wielding electricity on Jupiter's moon. (7)
    12: In this music game, it's always ladies' night. (6 3)
    13: In this MMORPG, you're looking for the mother of mankind. (8 )
    14: This lightgun title takes place in your father's domicile. (3 5 2 3 3)
    15: This classic FPS lets you attack with miniature Hawaiian guitars. (3 5)
    16: In this sandbox game, you're stealing cars for South African cash. (4 5 4)
    17: In this platformer, you play a huge fan of actresses Ryan and Tilly. (3 3)
    18: In this fighting game, your cartoony characters fight with waistbands. (5 4 4.)
    19: In this RPG, your character's got a Norse god's sidearm. (6'1 3)
    20: This RTS lets you helm a boat carrying a cargo of viscous black liquid. (8 )



    Good luck!
