Good & Bad

[TheChosen]

Its poll time!

[Grinder]

Today: Another useless topic byyyy..... (this is were you all shout "TheChosen")
kidding. Anyway, I'm an average player when it comes to Egoshooters, but when I'm in a team with several other people, I'm almost the best, regardless of their skills. I'm the best team player, if you will.

[Sebatianos]

Well, it all depends really on what kind of a game it is. I'm above average when it comes to puzzles, adveture games, thinking games and games involving mazes (labirinths).
I'm not that good (nor did I ever really care to improve) with FPS, role-playing, flight-simulators.
I'm average at platformers, strategies and sport games.

And I'm below average when it come to your Chosen poll-making skills :bleh: (did you really wish to find out about our skills or are you haveing a nostalgic attack and are doing polls for the old times sake :whistle: ).

[Doubler]

I'm not very good at playing games, but I'm an expert on having fun with them :)

[ReamusLQ]

I pick up on games very quickly, and normally can be winning them by around the third round if it's a new game (if we're talking multiplayer stuff like Halo and Smash Bros.)

As far as Computer games go, especially adventure games, I've been playing them for so long that I recognize a lot of the patterns and such.

[The Fifth Horseman]

Depends. Usually I'm average, but if I really like a particular game, I'll push myself to the limit to achieve utter perfection.

Generally, I'm better at arcade/action/platform titles then strategy ones (though I like them a lot), and kind of average on mech simulations (the only sort of simulation I can be persuaded to touch).

That describes me perfectly ;)

I'm not a good player, but I've fun even when i'm not able to finish a game... The important is to participate... And winners don't use drugs :ok:

You just became our official philosopher - we should make this as a slogan:

You don't need to be good at playing a game, just be good at enjoying it! :ok:

[Stebbi]

im prett good coming from my self

[Luso]

it depends on the game and if we play against the computer or another player! :tomato:

[troop18546]

One of the best... :whistle:

[SirPeter]

Between average and very good due to years of experience :)

[Rogue]

There was no option ‘Best of the Best Players’, so I had to satisfy with ‘The Best Player’. Good thing that no one is asking if I’m ‘Winning Player’.

[plague]

My playing skills are pretty bad, but my enthusiasm on playing makes me an average player.

[moogle]

Depends.
Online:
Shooter: Good / above average +
RPG: Above Average (if that really means anything lmao)
Puzzle: average (Tetra Master)
Strategy: average
Offline:
Shooter: above average +
RPG: Abover Average
Platformer: Average (depends on game too)
Strategy: above average
Action (Tomb raider / hack and slash type things): above average +

[Blood-Pigggy]

Impossible to say.
But I have a bizarre habit of just managing to kick behind the first time I play a strategy or fighting game.

[Bobbin Threadbare]

I am very good player. But then again, it depends on the game.

[Shady Yashy]

I'm the best in the business when it come to PC games. Hardly a game I have finished not among the games I have played. I got the goods in Shooting and Car games my personal Favourite.

[Chuck the plant]

Until today I was able to beat almost every game I played, one way or another (cheating NOT involved, but using "loopholes" in the game design, KI etc. involved). There are only a few games I didn't beat until today, and that was always because I lost the patience or the fun of it all at a certain level. However, this is obviously only true for single player-games.

Concerning multiplayer, I'd consider myself an average (beat-em-ups, rpg, action) or even below average (FPS, strategy) player. Allthough I'm a good team-player in arcade-platformers (like Snow Bros. :ok: ).

[chickenman]

depends on the game, but I am quite good at a lot of FPS games.

Damn I'm shiţ

[Kearnsy]

Im pretty good at most games. :whistle: *copies Troop*
I learn very quickly and can pick up strategies and tactics very quickly.

Im still not as good as some of the other guys I know... but I can compete with them so thats not bad.
:bleh:

I admit it. I was having a nostalgia fever.

And for the topic, im a pretty good player in many games.

[WaAn]

I'm good in RPG and Arcade
I'm average in Action, Adventure,
I'm baad in sport games

[The Niles]

I am, usually, well above average but below great. On FPS servers I end in the top five most of the time (most of the time ranking third for some reason).

[swiss]

playing CS or other FPS on the netI am pretty underaverage but when I play with some friends around (LAN party with 30 ppl) I am in the top 3 .... so it depends on who you are playing against ...

I chose "average" 'coz that's what my overall gaming skills would look like but I bet that hardly anyone can beat me in Turrican, SpaceInvaders or Centipede.


But on the other hand it's hard to tell what my average skills would look like 'coz I normally play games some hours (e.g. GTA or NFS) and then when I get stuck at the same place serveral times I just cheat and then play another 30 minutes and then lost the fun with the game ...

My average gaming time for each game I own is about 3 or 4 hours ... they allll got boring after a while - except HL2, LockOn, NFS MostWanted and CIV4 ....

I hope that you are kidding............ please tell me that you said that, to try to make a joke....

[The Fifth Horseman]

Yeah, I rarely play multiplayer FPS'es, but usually when I get the hang of the controls and the level, I'm a difficult prey.
