I won't call it a genre but.... I really like sniping on any FPS but I just physically can't sniper. No patience. On MW2 I have more kills with my pistol on my sniper class then I do with my rifle lol

I honestly don't think I am bad at any genre, let alone any I love... I can do fairly well online in an FPS, haven't played much RTS online, have lanned and performed well. RPG, MMORPG, JRPG, all fairly easy since you can always leave off from the main quests and grind if you really want. So, nothing really.

Point and Click'ers

Never got very far in Discworld, Toonstruck, Sam & Max, or Time Gentlemen, Please!

I usually need a guide for the Telltale games, (except for Strongbad!), as I get stuck fairly easily, (and those are the EASY ones... :,( ).

Me too! God that thing was fun.

OT: RTS. I love them, I love that a lot of them can stick pretty close to actual historical events, so you learn something. I suck at them though, and always play on normal, or Easy, just to enjoy the building aspects and building massive armies.

A genre, I also find your use of words disrespectful.

OT: Stealth. Boy do I love stealth, but I'm AWFUL at it!
god forbid I offend anyone, oh no, not that
I was taking the michael, mate. Don't worry. You haven't offended anyone as I'm sure you were very worried.
I was VERY worried (I TRY hard to be a stereotypical Canadian, I really do!)

Also action, if that counts as a genre for games, also suspense
Don't worry, we have the same Monarch.

First Person Shooters are so friggin' fun but I am so bad at them! I always have to crank the difficulty down a notch less than everybody else to do well. Or like Borderlands I have to grind like hell to make my character useful.

Modern racing games irritate me because I want to enjoy them but I'm so stuck in old-school arcade racing physics that the newer games' more realistic physics always mess me up. What do you mean I can't powerslide at 250 mph then square-turn out of it?

Fighting games (other than Smash Bros). I ABSOLUTELY LOVE watching people play Marvel vs Capcom 2. That game is so beautiful but I can't play it at all.

Everything else I'm fairly decent at. Except those crazy-ass shmps from Japan. Those are just insane.

RTS. I've always loved it, but never been patient enough to see one through to the end. and as for strategy, i sty the well thought out approach, and it's to this day only worked on Dawn of War(wiping out an entire base with 1 Tau stealth squad). but usually my strategy just involves spending all the resources in my current vicinity on tanks, and rolling them from one side of the map to the other, killing anything in between...

MMORPGs. I get pretty good at playing it, but I never learn all the lingo. People always ask me questions and I usually answer with "What's ____?"

I love RTS's but no matter what guide I read, the moment I get into a game to use my newfound super tactics I end up turtling. Dammit.
Man, I just laughed out loud. This is EXACTLY how i play multiplayer RTS games. Turtle then steamroll if I get to live that far. Help ><
I'm not alone!
Ahem. You're not bad at them. You can totally destroy the AI. Sometimes. Once it's broken.

OT: Anything with flying in it. I love flying in games, but I can't for the life of me cope with anything more complex than Halo's Banshee controls.

I suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, SUCK at RTS. Doesn't mean I'm not going to get Starcraft II on opening day, though.

Fighting games. But sometimes, I become the button-masher master!

I suck at racing games too, but I think I would hate them even if I was good at it.

Fighting games and RTS'es. I keep getting destroyed, but I keep playing.

At least I am showing slow improvement in fighting games. RTS'es I just keep getting demolished over and over. It's still fun though <.<
