I suck at pretty much every game ever created, but yeah... I'm especially bad at RTS's too, but I love them. I just like ordering my troops in to battle against overwhelming odds and then watching them die horribly. I probably should have been a general in WWI.

I'm also shockingly terrible at 2D fighters, but they're probably my most enduring love in all of gaming. From SF2 to KoF to Guilty Gear to SF3 to... well, every other 2D fighter ever, I can never beat anyone. But I like just jumping around like an excitable chimp and pressing random buttons.

Art, and all forms of it. Whether it be music or pencil and paper, I'm terrible at it. I'm great at other types of skills and they're generally skills I don't care about, but art is the one thing I wish I could do. To be able to draw neatly and to get rid of this random tremble in my arm would make my life a hell of a lot more full.

Real-life wise, it'd have to be being humble, as I can never, EVER admit to being wrong. Even if I say "NO! This cannot be! I AM INVINCIBLE!!!!" and then die. Actually, especially then.
And you love being humble?

Fighting games, oh merciful Emperor. I can't do anything more complicated than "hcb+ any attack button", yet I love the Guilty Gear and King of Fighters series (Guilty Gear moreso, because the music kicks ass), and I kinda wish they'd continue Rival Schools.

RTS games like starcraft. I can only play that game using the cheats so I stay away from online matches. Besides I can still have fun blowing the S*** out of an A.I. controlled enemy with a fleet/swarm of battlecrusiers/carriers/mutalisks or a nuclear barrage.

In online games I don't care if I suck. If I find a good crew (which I usually have no problems on XBL) then I'll keep playing even though I am there helping thier K/D ratio while mine is a D/D ratio. If I can't play they SP campaign then the game gets trashed. Especially if it is due to whack mechanics like a poor camera. That is a deal breaker for me. I can accept dying due to my own incompetence but not because I am dying because I am staring at a wall while getting raped.

I'm terrible at Starcraft, but I do love it. The only thing that keeps me picking up the game again after being totally vaporised by Bastard Worms (read: Protoss Reavers) is that it's a great game. The same goes for X-COM: UFO Defence.

Fighting games. Most of them just have HUUUUUGE combo lists, I just can't remember them properly. Super Smash Bros Melee was one of my fav games ever though, and it's a fighter. Probably because it doesn't have insane lists of combo's.

RTS. I just can't micromanage efficient enough. I used to rock at AoE2, but nowadays...
