Genres you like but suck at

[Ironic Pirate]

RTS's. I build up a nice little army, but everyone else already has one times bigger and has forgotten about me. I wish (in campaign, at least) that your enemies would just start with a huge army and not replenish. Makes me feel like a guerrilla, and I can take my time.

Hehe I can kick ass on easy on an RTS but as soon as I go one up in difficulty, thats when
I get my ass beaten. That an MMORPGS. Well technically I don't like MMORPGS, but I get my ass kicked in most of them.

 

[chaos order]

omg i have to say RTS i'm SOOOOO bad at it, although i love em to no end i have all the command and conquer games up to generals and star craft (which im especially crappy at but i love the story)

 

[ssgt splatter]

RTS. Starcraft being the only one. The only way I can play that game is with the cheat codes.

 

[falcon1985]

Realistic modern air combat sims like Lock On. I simply don't have the time to learn and remember every command required to play those games. I do so enjoy a good dogfight though.

 

[Srkkl]

Im pretty terrible at RPG's, it takes about three playthroughs before I make a character thats even remotely strong, however I love them.

 

[Judgement101]

Side scrolling rpgs like Shadow Complex. I never got used to the switching between shooting in the 2D axis and then shooting in the 3D axis

 

[Alex909]

Online FPS. I can do good on TPS Online but fail at FPS, especially MW2. The more health I have the better I can do (obviously).

 

[Kouen]

Speedball 2 Team Manager Single Player Mode xD

 

[lupercal27]

Music simulators. Like Rockband 2. Love it but I can't sing most of those songs, and playing the guitar cramps my hands up royally.

RTSs are awesome but I end up "turtling" and usually getting overwhelmed.

FPS - I used to like them but now i'm severly frustrated of them. I blame broken matchmaking, the online community (such asses out there), and lag. Being "good" is too relative nowadays.

 

[FinalHeart95]

RTS. I take too long trying to build an uber-strong base.

 

[starwarsgeek]

RTS's and FPS's

I can never get my army up in time in an RTS, always leading to a loss. I even had to use the cheats to beat Warcraft 2 and 3.

FPSs...I'm not terrible, but I can get steamrolled in matchmaking.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Diablo style RPGs without respec. I always make some kind of gimped build...

Spent 25 hours with my high elf in Sacred 2 before finding out that it was gimped beyond repair.

 

[rees263]

I'm going to be boring and ditto the RTS sentiments. I love them, I grew up with C&C and Age of Empires. I usually have no problem beating the campaigns (on normal difficulty at least, hard depends on which game it is), but I suck online whenever I've tried. I've played some "noob games" and I do okay, I'm about that sort of level or slightly above, but anyone who is any good will WTF pwn me before I know what's happening. Obviously getting flattened didn't give me much incentive to keep trying.

 

[imaloony]

Ah, OP, you read my mind.

RTS'. I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOO terrible at them, but at the same time, I just love them.

 

[Mafiastyle]

Survival Horror games - I love them so much, but I suck at them because I'm easily scared so I miss the enemy completely because it popped out and made me jump. >.< lol

 

[Amarinth]

I'm going to have to chime in with most people here, I suck at RTS, even though I love strategy games of all kinds and have tried several times to get into the RTS genre. Unfortunately I always get zerged to hell by the computer while I'm still building up my base with pinpoint precision.

On the flipside, I rock at turn-based strategy games. =)

Hmm yes that's an interesting one as well. Some survival horror games look so cool when played by others, but they just scare the living daylights out of me, so I tend to avoid them. I don't like horror movies either. :S
