Gah.  6/10  Got numbers 5,6,9, and 10 wrong.  I honestly do not remember coming across a single door in #5's game.  And #6 looked so familiar I wasn't sure which old school FPS it came from.

#5 was filled with doors from start to finish. Potions made doors appear, and even those eagle-head-things that swallowed you after you grabbed an orb sort of count as doorways.

7/10! Yay.

Good grief, #6 had some ridiculous doors. Those Germans sure knew how to keep everything secure.

Every Nazi building has a panic room in every wall. Same thing with Doom.

I got 1, 3, 5, mixed up 6 for Doom, and 7-10. Only reason why I didn't get 2 and 4 (8 was a lucky guess) was because I don't play those games.

Wait, you got #10? Nice! I saved that one for last to stump people.

I got cocky after the first 4... 6/10. Kicking myself for not getting #5.

5.5/10! Never played #4 or #8. I was sure #6 was one of two FPSs of that era, so that's my half point. I thought #9 would have been from like Paper Mario or something; kind of close, I guess. And as to #10, too tiny, too dark, too long ago, is what I have to say!

I'd give you half a point if you guess the game series correctly but not the actual game. ;) Also, do you hate first-person shooters or just Halo?

Great puzzle!  I missed 4, 8 and 10.  Chalk up another 5 minutes wasted at work!

#8 is my favorite image. Just look at it. Well, the door is nothing special, but the creepy locks and chains look cool. I'm surprised you didn't get #4.

#8 is very ominous and distinctive, that's for sure.  I was a PS2 owner...

D'ah! 9/10. Had absolutely no idea about #10, regardless of the fact that I have, in fact, played it. I feel bad for knowing almost all of them though. This is grey matter better spent on... Math. Or driving directions.

You're right. Why do we remember such obscure details from decades-old games, but we can't remember what we had for lunch last Tuesday?

8/10, apparently I'm more of a door master!

Missed #8 and #10 since I haven't played them... yet. I will cherish my future door experiences.

You'll probably get 10/10 when I do a "guess the keys" Puzzler.

8/10. I don't remember 9 at all, and 10, I got the wrong game in the series, because the one you picked to take a door from wasn't super memorable.
