Well done to Batguy, who guessed Friday’s HaiTaku in one blistering minute. I guess if you know it you know it! It was You Don’t Know Jack.
Today’s haiku comes from Bookiegnu. Good luck everyone!
U.S. got Bond-age
The rest of the world got Jack.
Where did that plane go?
This is HaiTaku. We write Haikus about old video games and leave it you to guess what game we’re talking about. If you want to submit a Haiku feel free. Send it here!

You Don’t Know Jack.
Worked last time. I assume it’s correct, cos “Jack”.
I’m going to go with No One Lives Forever: Contract Jack pending looking up to see whether it was related to a US version of a James Bond game or some such.
EDIT: Ok, that doesn’t look like it.
Biker Mice from Mars!
24 the video game?
Operation Stealth?
Correct, or “James Bond: the stealth affair” in the U.S.
In which an MI6 agent takes orders from the CIA. Woohoo! 😀
Lost?
Is there a game for Lost?
I don’t even watch Lost.
There was indeed a game for Lost and man it was pretty awesome
I would also guess Lost: The Game.
Even though the main character wasn’t Jack, but he was in it.
Someone needs to release a 3rd person shooter set in that isld – there were that many gun fights in that show
Bioshock?
This gets my vote.
Yeh Jack’s plane crashes, thats my reasoning haha. Not sure what the first line could relate to >.
Probably the fact that Andrew Ryan saw everyone outside Rapture as slaves in bondage to the government?
This is a better guess. I’m changing my vote.
Hi everybody!
I think I’m gonna answer
That game called The Dig
I’ll go out on a limb and guess Goldeneye.
The “Bond” part was what swung me that way.
007: GoldenEye
Bond worked with the CIA when he went to Cuba, working with CIA Agent Jack Wade.
Plane was flying below radar and was shot down from secret underground satellite complex base, US people went to last known location of plane and interrupted Bonds sexy-time with Natalia.
Wow, that was such a well explained rationale, I’m wondering if I got the answer wrong, and I wrote the question!
