Umm i can run the original legend of zelda in 3 hours (haven't tried in years tho). thats kinda rare i guess.. there are thousands of great FPS players out there, and apparently half of them are in this thread.

lol, that's true. and i guess "sniping" isn't really a skill.
so to clarify, when say i'm a good sniper, i mean that i can snipe with a M40 in CoD3. there ca be a guy with a turret in the third story, hiding behind his giant gun and some sandbags, and i can just pop up and get a headshot. that's what i mean by "I'm a pretty good sniper".

I fall into a niche that isn't often heralded like being a sniper is. Nor is it ever really given a second's thought, but my personal best gaming skill are my fire support skills with a machine gun.

Most people really don't think it's all that hard to be able to use, but the difference between someone who's merely ok with a MG vs someone who understands when and where to entrench themselves, firing angles, and most importantly, when to get the hell out of their dig in point is astounding. More often then not I see people run around and just try and run and gun with MGs in games and then wonder why the guy with the assault rifle was able to beat them in a straight firefight, and it makes my brain hurt :(

It's like being a sniper, only everyone knows you're there :D

I'm average on FP's, but on COD4 i'm very fond of sneaking into the enemy base on Sabotage/ domination and taking them out while they go after my team mates. Not really a skill i suppose, but it does annoy the enemy into going after me and allowing our team to win! Oh and using the G3 as an unscoped silenced sniper rifle with auto fire speed due to twitchy trigger finger, nice

Also getting very good with the sniper rifle on warhawk. Insta kill, but the scope is nowhere as good as COD4.

Some people say the Spartan Laser is a Noob weapon, but to be honest you do need skill to use it, especially on Sandtrap. Hitting a moving mongoose from the OTHER SIDE of Sandtrap in a tiny opening in a structure does take a fair amount of skill

I have a rapid Twitch Reflex and movement sensory response times.
I also have a gift for lob weapons, as well as clear across the battlefield snipes.
As well as fighting on the move.
Tracking aggro zones and angles of attack on MMO's, particularly WoW

I have gotten 120 stars in Super Mario 64 in 1 day. I don't mean 24 hours, I mean one day in which I otherwise followed quite a normal schedule as far as eating and sleeping were concerned.

More remarkably, I have achieved 100% completion on Ocarina of Time in 2 days.

And 100% completion on Majora's Mask in 7 cycles, counting the Deku Curse cycle as one.

I have also completed a playthrough of Paper Mario blindfolded. Did I mention this was 100% completion?

Oh yeah, one last thing: I am GODLY in Perfect Dark. To the point where if I really want to prove it, I let my opponents place a Farsight in a hard-to-reach area, literally leave the room (without pausing) and come back a minute later, letting them know full well that this is their perfect chance...and I'll still win by a huge margin.

Ah, for the days of the N64...best console ever.

I have the ability to analyze my opponents quite well thus find blind spots, trip-ups, and weaknesses in which I exploit halfway onwards through the match.

I have the ability to keep playing no matter how many times I get my ass kicked at the game and still enjoy playing the game. Oh and I am good (not great) at every fighting game out there (I dont button mash).

I can get behind anyone in TF2. Ecellent for backstabs. Also, I'm great at judging where players will go and what actions they'll take, making sniping a pretty natural ability too.

My god like powers on games such as Devil may Cry and Ninja Gaiden. I went round a friends house and started to play around on Ninja Gaiden, not doing very well yet he still said I was epic. I guess that has something to do with only having easy on the demo and him being dreadful at it, but still.

Well mine is more of weird than a skill. It is very easy for me to bait people into doing what I want in anything Example: In Call of Duty 4 I baited five people into following me while me team sat beyond a doorway (We both had UV) and before they could get one foot in they were dead it was hilarious either they were complete idiots or bots.

I can fire the G3 and M14 in CoD4 stupid quick.


The satisfaction is lost on the M14, where, after more than 2 shots, the recoil becomes unmanageable.

My ability to compensate for motion; I can 'prefire'. I can very easily know where my bullets or other ordinance end up so that they go where the target is going to be.
This is particularly challenging with the Half-Life 2 Crossbow. It also is difficult for me in games like Counterstrike where the bullets go the speed of light and need no travel-of-target-travel-of-round compensation.

being able to beat every track on -hard- difficulty and every single one of my mates on CTR (Crash Team Racing). i dont care what anyone says, that was the best battle-racing game on the ps1 since Road Rash!
It definetly was man. After that game, Crash went downhill, but not before. Some of the best games ever made had that mad bandicoot in them. Whatever the hell a bandicoot is...

The ability suck for 3/4 of the game then PWN EVERYONE. This is true to, it's like I build up adrenaline, or I have real life bullet time that activates after a while. This is good because people will think I suck and begin to ignore me and i kill them ALL.

Then something clicks after about 15 minutes or so and godly destruction of all in sight occurs
