What games do you flat-out suck at?

[latenightapplepie]

Real-time strategy games. I just get too emotionally attached to my buildings and units. I think you have to be pretty ruthless and coldly rational to be good at these kinds of games. Moreover, I'm fairly rubbish at multitasking in general, so that doesn't help.

CoD: Modern Warfare. I don't like it much anyway, so I don't care. a
and
Street Fighter II: I suck so much at it, WHY IS IT SO FUN!?

The weird thing: I feel the exact opposite way, and try to run my troops of cliffs for fun, but I still suck at it. Well, I do occasionally get attatched when somehow a group of the weakest classes takes down the most powerful vehicle in the game, which has happened once.

The PoP game where the prince had a blue and orange turban. I couldn't beat this one boss because no matter how hard I mashed X, he wouldn't fucking die.

 

[Ignatz_Zwakh]

2-D fighters. I absolutely love them but no matter how much I train and how many of my pro-friends educate me in them, I always realize I blow the moment I go online. X_X

FPS's on consoles. I just can't shake the feeling that I'd be having more fun with a mouse and keyboard and it just frustrates me too much to care.

Also, Just Cause 2. I heard it was really easy, so I set it to normal difficulty. I got a few hours into it dying too much, then when I discovered you can't change the difficulty without restarting the whole game I gave up. I personally blame the dodgy controls on PC though.

 

[Naleh]

All of them.

 

[kurtzy23]

I cant play FIFA

 

[Nexus4]

Call of Duty, I have fun and all but I never hit very high up in the match rankings. Same with Reach, but I still enjoy playing them.

 

[feeback06]

RTS, and I can't really say why. The computer can overwhelm me everytime.

 

[XJ-0461]

Rhythm games. I'm so bad at Guitar Hero and Rock Band that it isn't even funny.

 

[SirDeadly]

Racing games, I mean cmon they're so unrealistic, who brakes to go around a corner!?

 

[Sentox6]

Shooters, I guess. The thing is, on the one hand, I don't think I'm that bad. I completed Halo: Reach on Legendary (solo) and skipped no enemies, with only a couple of exceptions. I did Crysis on Delta. I did HL2 on hard.

Yet when I go online, I just get wtfpwnt most of the time. In the case of Halo, sometimes I have good games, often I have bad games, and while my KDR is currently above 1.0 (but trending downwards), I still feel basically bad at it. Most games are composed of heading round a corner only to get spammed with 2,000,000 grenades and a rain of melee hits. Every game seems to have someone who's just so stupidly good it makes me want to give up.

 

[HT_Black]

I'm competent at Starcraft, but it bored me so badly that I barely played it past the "Tangling with a hard AI" phase. I guess that counts, because the average learned human player could probably eat me for breakfast.

As an aside, I'm somethig of an ace at Devil May Cry--right until you ratchet it up to DMD. Then it becomes physically improbable that you'll beat it, no matter who you are. The same goes for GoW.

 

[Nazulu]

Fighting games like Street Fighter, KOF and Tekken. I just can't get into practising to pull of big moves by pressing up, down, up, right, left, A, ect.

Don't get me wrong though, I reckon the games are awesome!

 

[BlueCollarTweaker]

Racing games. I just can't figure them out. Especially, the 'walls come at you fast' part. If you add weapons in to the mix I'm doomed to always get last place.

BRAKE

I'm bad at every game except Gran Turismo, Timesplitters and Spyro 2. I'm especially good at Rock Band on drums, since I'm a drummer and expert mode is just the real drum part transposed to 4 pads and a pedal. All other instruments, I'm okay at I guess.

Best be trollin'

 

[Betancore]

Strategy games, fighting games, and racing games. I also cannot play chess. I think my problem with most strategy games is that I find them a little boring and tedious, but that's just an excuse because I also suck at them.

 

[Drop_D-Bombshell]

Racing games, but for some reason i was good at Need For Speed. Guess forza is just not for me then.

 

[Dr Gonzo]

Strategy games. It is a sad testimony to my ineptness at multitasking
