Hot for Kirk Hope - Quests

#1 Posted by Leptok (929 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Can't seem to figure out the 3rd one. The first two were easy, but then I hit a wall. Any help?

#2 Posted by Happy (261 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Can anyone confirm that it is not bugged? I swear I've visited every possibility and I had Up and Atom bug out on me in the same way last night.

#3 Posted by nobull6 (237 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Not bugged. The third item may, or may not be, a game. I wonder what else could be related to this quest?

#4 Posted by emkeighcameron (1876 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

It was bugged for me in the sense that it didn't "bleep" when I found it.

I searched around for like an hour waiting for the bleep but it never happened.

I finally gave up in disgust and when I checked my quest tracker, turns out it was filled up with all three points.

@nobull6: Okay, dur, I got it. Haha, I was just being stubborn that it had to be a game.

#6 Posted by MaxPower13124 (18 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

I have no idea where to even start on this one. Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

#7 Posted by killerjt (137 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

This part of the clue "Van frickin' Halen" will help with #3

I need some help with #1 and #2.

Always look for a name with these types of quests first when they're given.

#9 Edited by Leptok (929 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Arg duh, I don't know why didn't I think to check that.

All the achievement names for Music Appreciation 101 are bigger clues than people think they are.

#11 Posted by DrHorrible256 (129 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

ugh The third one is driving me nuts.

#12 Posted by imayellowfellow (558 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

the third one is somewhere in the clue

#13 Posted by CL60 (16906 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Mentioning him touring with Van Halen is a big clue for 3.

#14 Posted by trophyhunter (5804 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

I need help with 1 and 2

#15 Posted by Dynoro (110 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

For #1 look at the "surname" in the quest title..just cannot get #2

#16 Posted by Wadawoodo (49 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

I have non of these :- /

#17 Posted by Wadawoodo (49 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

okay scratch that i just got all three in 2 minutes

#18 Posted by guiseppe (2711 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Got #1 and #3, but I'm completely clueless for #2.

#19 Posted by KaosAngel (13766 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

...I'm completely lost on #3

#20 Posted by ahab88 (215 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Wow. Finally shredded the third one. I was fretting over it for a while. Might have got it sooner if I was born in 1984.

#21 Posted by MadeinFinland (839 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Hint for #3: It's not necessarily a game. It tells you in the hint.

#22 Posted by Wes899 (2067 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

I'm not seeing any kind of hint for #3.

#23 Edited by AllanIceman (1279 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

I need help for 1 and 2. I don't know ant composers that are named Hope.

Nevermind got all 3.

#24 Posted by SquadBroken (280 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Still need all 3. I gather I need a guitarist born in 1984? I can't get anything from these clues.

#25 Posted by SquadBroken (280 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

Oh man I feel so stupid now that I have no 3. Still no idea about 1 & 2 though.

#26 Posted by KillerFly (371 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago

#1: "Hot For Kirk Hope"? I don't really like that guy, but I'm totally into the duo known as Kirk and Hope, especially when their powers combine to form...

#27 Posted by SquadBroken (280 posts) - 3 years, 29 days ago

Still stumped. Am I looking for people or games for 1 & 2? Is it an anagram of Kirk & Hope? Is it games that no 3 has worked on?

#28 Posted by OroJackson (677 posts) - 3 years, 29 days ago

@SquadBroken:

1. The Composer
2. A Game he worked on
3. Another person, mentioned in the quest

Yeah, that Really Got Me too. At one point I was just about ready to Erupt, but then I decided to Jump over to Panama for a couple of days to Finish What I Started. When I was down there I talked to some Beautiful Girls who I thought were Unchained, but when I asked one of them if she wanted to Dance the Night Away, she replied "I Ain't Talkin' 'bout love". I swear, the Summer Nights down there were so hot it was like Runnin' with the Devil.

#30 Posted by SquadBroken (280 posts) - 3 years, 29 days ago

@Elazul: And now for a similar clue for no. 1 please

" @Elazul: And now for a similar clue for no. 1 please "

Okay, this is the best I can do:

Number 1 is a composer. His name technically is an anagram of Kirk and Hope, but it's a lot simpler than that makes it sound.

Number 2 is a game he did the music for. It's also Brad's favorite game in the whole world.

#32 Posted by Alcamin (147 posts) - 3 years, 21 days ago

I'm still having problems with this one. So far, the clues for #'s 1 - 2 have not helped. I'm at a complete loss here. Can anyone come up with any others?

Also, Elazul mentioned Brad's fav game for #2, but if his profile is to be believed that isn't right either, unless I'm missing something.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been puzzling over this one for ages!

#33 Posted by AdventFalls (72 posts) - 3 years, 21 days ago

@Alcamin:
#1- This composer did work on two of the best N64 platformers, and is responsible for the intentionally bad DK Rap.
#2- This is probably Rare's most prominent game after they left Nintendo.

#34 Posted by Alcamin (147 posts) - 3 years, 21 days ago

@AdventFalls: OMG! I feel like an idiot now. How could I have missed that? No excuse.

Thanks for the help, mate. Much appreciated!

I see what you did there.

#36 Posted by SamLynn (13 posts) - 2 years, 2 months ago

A hint for #2... ummm these are fun at birthday parties when you're little or if you like hitting flamboyant animals with a stick without PETA hating you.Now apply that to a certain game
