Poll: How Good are You?

[Ironic Pirate]

I'm decent at most things, and I've been described as "Rambo, but a ninja" in the past.

Also, in BBC2, I'm absolutely awesome at figuring out bullet drop. Get a headshot every time. Can't really get headshots on moving targets, but I can often nick them.

 

[Danpascooch]

I am damn good, no buts about it.

But (see what I did there?) I am not claiming to be immune to the one universal rule of gaming: "If you play online, you will never have any trouble finding a prepubescent kid who can kick your ass"

It's just unavoidable.

 

[mikespoff]

Pretty good at RTS (for a non-pro - I'm not ready for the Starcraft channel or anything), good at FPS and tactical shooters.

Basically, good at teh genres I enjoy and therefore put a lot of time into.

 

[open trap]

Im above average and at times amazing.

 

[Chamale]

I have some world records in gaming, and I'm solid at a few games, but there are some genres that I simply suck at. I don't have the time to play online FPS or MMO's for hours a day, so I can't compete with anyone that has the time to be very good.

I'm also hilariously terrible at every RTS except for Impossible Creatures. Or maybe I just think I'm terrible because most RTS games have bad matchmaking and I'm always competing against extremely good players, who put me to shame.

 

[PatrickXD]

I'm pretty average at shooters, I can complete them mostly on hardest setting and multiplayer I generally get positive k:d or 1:1 at least.
RTS is a different story. I'm rubbish at Comny of Heroes, but really good at Dawn of War. It varies.
Strategy games, well I beat XCOM on my 50th attempt, so not great but not bad. (That's the first one, UFO defense)

 

[ninjajoeman]

I'm so good that your character shouldn't even bother rendering his head.

Oh. Wait. In games?
Yeah, Imma beast.
I mean, who here thinks they aren't good at games?

 

[GLo Jones]

I'm a quick learner with good spacial awareness. As such, I'd say I'm pretty good at action/FPS/fighting games. While I'm not bad at turn-based strategy, my main weakness comes from RTS games. They fucking terrify me.

I tend to cope well under pressure, or recover well if caught off-guard. So when the shit hits the fan, I tend to make the right choices, however, over the long haul I prefer to follow the orders of others.

 

[thom_cat_]

I pretty much always top the ladder in Tf2 (probably doubling the next persons score most times) but other than that I'm only marginally better in most other games

 

[MercenaryCanary]

Above Average, unless I use my brain.
Then I'm a god.

I generally just play for fun.
Unless I get on Killing Floor.
Then I take a serious mood unless playing with friends.

Headshots. Headshots everywhere.

 

[Dark2003]

Must admit after seeing the thread title I thought you were taking about sex.

I've been gaming since about 2, with duck hunt, I'm not the greatest, but I can take on veteran players with ease after i learn the controls

 

[Okuu_Fusion]

Im pretty good at everything, but I do better at 3rd person shooters, survival, and rpgs

Not so good at multiplayer and sports games

 

[Verkain]

I'm mediocre at best. I do well enough to enjoy the games I play but not good enough to go up against someone really good. At LAN parties I end up spending a good deal of time thinking "how the $%#^ did he do that?" but I still have a blast.

 

[slipknot4]

I am above the average on fps games. Some people say that i excel, but I dunno. I am however a hell of a sportsman and I find that most overpowered weapons in games are ruining the mood for me. So, I fend to stick with throwing knifes, smoke grenades and skip weapons like M200, Frag grenades, Ump 45, M203 and the Masada in Cod 6.

I guess that I play decent in some Rts games, the beta of SC 2 went rather sleek when i played with my friend in a Protoss/Zerg duo. We won like 5 games in a row and to be honest, that is one of the most awesome gaming moment I've had in any RTS..

 

[xmbts]

I get beating the AI enemies down to a science after playing a game for a bit but against thinking people i tend to suck.

 

[Kurt Horsting]

I'm probably the best Abel (SSF4) player in the midwest, and one of the best Noels (BB both CT and CS) in the country.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

I'm better than average, maybe even great at FPS. Well, Call of Duty; the genre doesn't aspire to me, but my brother likes it and it's a good way to vent. I'm great at RTS in single player but online I might be different. Puzzle I'm decent. RPG I'm pretty good. Adventure I'm decent.

I think I'm an all round great gamer, if I may say so myself. Some are definitely better, but I'm better than the majority. Feel free to disagree if you've ever played me.

 

[PhunkyPhazon]

I consider myself pretty good with any single-player game, but multiplayer...yeesh. The only game I'm good at online is Guitar Hero/Rock Band. Though I consider myself to be decent enough in any Rockstar-made game, like GTAIV and RDR. And I do have my kick-ass moments in both.
