I can't believe i suck...

[Hayate_GT]

Recently fired up the old Cube...and came to the sad realization that i can't play most of these game for SHIT...

the list includes
Sonic Adventure 2
Goldeneye: Rouge Agent
Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu (remember the combos but those damn mystic ninja dudes are killin me)
Star Wars: Bounty Hunter

surprisingly i can still kick ass in Metroid Prime and Sonic Heroes (i love that game...i dont care what you have to say...)

so my question is...is there a game or games from your olden days that you used to be good at and now u just kinda...suck at...?

 

[khaimera]

For me its the old Mario Games. I used to be able to beat Super Mario Bros 2. Now, I'm terrible. Its those damn egg shooting bosses.

 

[Simple Bluff]

Lucky Luke. As far as I remember, I kicked ass when I was 7. Now I can barely beat the boss on the train level.

 

[Something Amyss]

I remember all the combos to Street Fighter 2 titles, but my timing and execution is lacking.

You poor, poor soul.

I can no longer play Megaman X games to save my life. It's sade.

 

[someotherguy]

...Quack shot.

What?

 

[NeedAUserName]

Not really, hell, I've been going back to my old PS2/PSone games recently and completely kicking the shit out of them. Although I was about 10 on the original play throughs.

 

[0bserv3]

I couldn't play battlefront 2 well even if my life depended on it anymore.
That and the original smash brothers.

 

[Iwata]

The original Sonic games. I used to routinely beat Sonic, Sonic 2, Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles on the Mega Drive when I was in school, sometimes two or more in one day.

Now it takes me forever to beat a single one of those games.

I know. :'(

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Streets of Rage, great games, but one gets so accustomed to a lot of lives, plentiful health powerups and weapons that don't shit on you.

 

[Pink_Pirate]

i dunno... i normally digg up all my old megaman X titles every few years and give them a good play through... still hard, but you just need to keep your skills up, i can still do X5 100% in only a few hours

Silent hill 1

i used to be able to beat that game on the hardest difficulty as a kid. Now if i play on anything above normal i can die from one of those flying things if i don't have any ammo.

 

[Blind Sight]

In my old age I've gotten worse at most first person shooters, 'tis a young man's game. Yes, I'm only twenty, why do you ask?

 

[rosemystica]

Strangely, I was far better at Mario as a five-year-old than I am now, as a twenty-two-year-old. I have no clue why. XD Nowadays I can barely make it past the first stage. (then again, I AM a bit out-of-practice on ye olde NES these days.)

 

[Duffeknol]

I've never been able to finish a single platform game. Ever. Not even Mario.

 

[gmaverick019_v1legacy]

as of late, the original super mario, i used to be able to do the speed runs with my hands behind my back without losing a single life, now a days i die 4/5 times before i make it to the last bowser castle.

also battlefront II, good god i used to have a near 18 k/D ratio with over 30,000 kills racked up, i could roll soldier like it was nobodys business(literally roll, like a beast), but now a days i get maybe 3-4 K/D ratio when i play the game =\ i miss the times when i used to rape entire armies single handedly..

 

[UberMore]

Every Tekken game.
I used to be the beast. There was nothing that could stop me.
I even learned Ling Xou Yu's combo from the Intro of Tekken 3.

But then my PS2 broke, so I was unable to play them, and even with a PS3 I don't play them.
Now, it's like I don't even know what a controller is when I try and play Tekken.

 

[Sinspiration]

Mhhh... No not really. I mean sometimes I start off poor but within moments I remember everything I would do, I remember which buttons to press, when and how, where the enemies come from, where all the secret items I once found were etc etc, I just.. Naturally remember how to, *shrug*

 

[Jorias]

TFC, i remember fragging the shit outta noobs in that game...i played it a few months back i cried at how shitty i have become....
