Ah, yeah. Same here. I can't even do shoryus as well as I would like to.

I wish I could call upon EVO to give me temporary skills of pure gaming awesomeness.

I would say Red Orchestra 2. I love world War 2 shooters but I don't have the patience for this game. Since its a more realistic shooter, you have to play the game at a slower pace. Move from cover to cover and other similar stuff.

The years of Playing Tf2 and Halo, have made it almost impossible for me to play most realistic shooters.

Assassin's Creed is another series I want to love but I suck horribly at.

Xannidel, if you are stuck at the first boss, I understand. I went through that game and I am replaying it, I died first time I went in (again). She's pretty hard, and the puzzles are actually quite complex. ;-;

I've never encountered a game that I suck so much at I can't play it, but the closest i'll come to it is probably Elder Scrolls. I played Oblivion and got a good thief with glass stuff at level 20 and couldn't do any of the side quests I got into.

[SERIOUSLY THOUGH]

Age of Empires.
I can only win by spamming the big daddies (though to be fair, I haven't played that game in nearly a decade)

Civ 5. I can't be a peaceful guy with all the other nations attacking me or being offended by my land choices.

There is no civil way to play that game. Some other character will always get pissy at another and will get pissy with you if you don't side with them.

Starcraft2!

I do one wrong thing and its every nation going against me and then just waiting it out for there to be a peace treaty. Some nasty tactics they got.

Final Fantasy XII - Game has really grown on me, but oh boy do I suck at it. Only figured out a couple of days ago how to use quickening effectively and I'm near the end of the bloody game.

WoW - Really enjoy questing and PvP battle grounds, but I'm nothing more than a liability to the Horde. :P

[Lethal]

Nazi Zombies.
Im really good at stacking points and killing the zombies, its just kind of getting lucky on the Random Boxes, which I dont.

[Fearless]

I Absolutely Love Street Fighter.

Buuuut, we all don't have amazing reflexes, or the ability to input directional commands at lightning quick speeds.

My snes mortal kombats, i can never get as good as i can got with MKDA and the new one.

Doom 2. I'm not awful at it, but I'd at least like to give Nightmare a go without having a nervous breakdown.

[BumblebeeCody]

Anyone need any help for Street Fighter or wanting to learn, feel free to ask.

I'd recommend buying it on XBLA. It lets you save the game whenever you want so you can take levels at a much slower pace and correct any mistakes.

Yeah, I have got it on XBLA (it's one of those games that I've ended up getting on multiple platforms). I just don't play it enough to be properly skillful with it, and the hardest difficulty setting still makes my brain explode.

Out of interest, how would you help with Street Fighter? I'm certainly not great at it, so I can't really comment, but it seems to be very much an ingrained reflex kind of thing.
