I am good at FPS and sports games, TPS and racing. My weakness is fighters, never was good at them.

I've always considered myself good at games. I can easily adapt to whatever game i'm playing, and i'll be good in no time.

FPS I am pretty good at. In Tactical RPGs I am good. Traditional RPGs, fighting games, and RTS games I am pretty poor.

I am average in platformers and sports games usually.

I would say that in most cases I am relatively average, but in some games I am really good and in a few I am rather poor.

I tend to be above average at any multiplayer game. I can beat all my friends in halo, smash, street fighter etc.

as for single player, i normally only play at the middle difficulty so i dunno.

Im not really good at RTS games online. Yeah play RTS on single player is easy, but online is on a different level. I use to play AOE2 online, and while I was trying to make villagers, I would get attacked by full fledged armies.

It depends on the Genre.

I'm pretty awful at online FPS', although I still play them (TF2 helps me out with class balance), I'm awful at CS, I've had it for about 2 months and I think I've had about 4 kills, all of which where lucky blindfire headshots. I'm fairly good at the UT series though, that was my first FPS so I know a lot about it.

I always thought I was good at RTS', always played RA2 and WC3 single player and thought I was the bomb, but then the first time I went online I got yelled at for being so terrible. I stick to the single player nowadays.

I'm good at RPGs, mostly because they don't require you to be particularly fast, just think things through and know a good strategy. I was really good at WoW, and I'm good at console RPGs as well.

Overall, I'm a pretty crappy gamer, but I still enjoy being bad. I know a lot of bad players who think of crazy excuses for why they die so much.

I suck at traditional fighting games -- I'm only good at smash bros.

I also suck with RTS.

I can learn games very quickly, but I never develop really good at any of them, or maybe I just don't put enough time in them. I wouldn't say that I suck, average is better word. But in really fast paced shooters I do suck, anything faster than BF and you can bet I suck sweaty balls at it. Tho there are few exceptions.

I've never really been bad at any games. I've always been good or pretty good. Never the best at anygame though I have a few in which I'm better than everyone I know in person or on my friendslist. But not good enough to even be considered for a tourney. My brother tells me I suck at WC3 though. I pretty much do well when he tells me what to do if he's watching me.

I sm pretty terrible at them to be honest. I was good back when I was doing games like RE4, MP2 and Viewtiful Joe on their hardest difficulties...though I guess part of the reason I was good at those games was the sheer amount of time I used to spend playing them.

Alright at PC RTS, destroy on consoles though (CnC3--420/35 record in 2v2 with the same partner, go teamwork!). I usually do well in FPS, top 3 or so in most games, first in some TPS like GeOW. Big team-based games like TF2 and ET:QW (PC) I usually do alright or just above average. I usually do pretty well in fighting games, mainly SC and SSB series games (I know it's not a traditional fighter). SC I can take most players down with any character (minus the broken characters like Yunsung and Maxi, both who have some very pathetic moves that leave them open to counter attacks). I'm not so good at DoA or Tekken though, especially since DoA online is a button-mash fest with whichever imbalanced ninja you choose. I fare well with action games like NG and DMC, as well as any sort of (J/W)RPG or SRPG.

Im good at Geow Multiplayer and I beat singelplayer alone on insane , thats something Im proud of.

Halo 3 Im pretty avarge but its one of my favorite games.

Cod 4 Better then avarage and Cs better then avarage.

I only play FPS and Geow online and have played for a while , The amazing thing aboute it is it never gets boring as long as there are good competition out there.

I'm pretty good at JRPGs(Never played a WRPG game). I suck at racing games so all of them barely interest me. I'm OK at RTS games. I'm really good at FPS games. Platformers are my specialty. Sports games don't grab my attention much but I'm good at them.

Overall I'm pretty good at games other than racing.

I got it for not even losing, just by watching people lose (don't know how that works). :cry:

Anyway it's difficult to be good at that game online unless you know when to counter and you must play as one of the ninjas if you want any chance to survive. Still a fun game on it's own though.

Depends on the game just like everyone here. I've never won a game of Starcraft, not even against the computer on the slowest setting...I'm frustratingly bad at 3-d platformers. I'm good at racing, rpg, mmorpg pvp, shooters, sports sims, old 2-d platformers, fighting games and rhythm games. I am a god at Guitar Hero/Rock Band, I own on Counterstrike and I am the world boss of Minesweeper.

Depends on the genre.

A lot of people found some parts of Super Mario Galaxy challenging. I thought it wasn't in the least bit difficult. The Luigi's Purple Coin challenge was easy, and I got it on my first try. Seriously, it was incredibly easy. I could probably get all the coins, if it wasn't for that darn time limit. I also don't have as much trouble in 2D platformers, either.

RPGs I'm pretty good at because I don't run away from battles ever and verse all the Trainers in Pokemon before moving on. I also check up on the NPCs, look at basically everything, so I know what to do, and the best way to do it.

Racers always came easy to me.

I'm not that good at Zelda games, I'll admit. I have gotten a lot better, but Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask were just so damn hard, especially the latter.

I also suck at FPSs, but I don't really like them, anyway.

I'm bad at sports games, but don't like them. Although I was pretty good at Mario Strikers: Charged.

Point and Click Adventures I'm average at.

That's all I can think of right now.

Good

-adventure games (Zelda, etc.)

- survival horror (Resident Evil, Fatal Frame, Silent Hill, etc.)

-JRPG, both turn-based and action (Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, etc.)

-WRPG (Mass Effect, Elder Scrolls, etc.)

-hack and slash adventure (Devil May Cry, God of War, etc.)

-stealth (MGS, Splinter Cell, etc.)

-TPS (except online Gears of War...ahhhh)

Above Average

-FPS (except online at certain games...I'm only average)

-Platformers

-Kart racers (Mario Kart)

Average

-2D fighers (Street Fighter, SNK stuff, etc.)

-SSB...so 3D fighters I guess?

Poor

-RTS

-puzzle games.

Overall I'd say I'm a decently well-rounded player who is above average in most situations.

i suck at sci-fi fps.. or horror survival.. i guess i have a faint of heart. i LOVE bioshock's gameplay but i got too intimidated to finish it. Terrible at FPS whre you have 1000 hitpoints like UT and GEOW.

i'm not reallly good at RPG or MMOrpgs either. i always put too much thought into how to build my characters.

Not really sure what game I'm really good at. my gf beats me in guitar hero. DAMN I SUCK AT VIDEO GAMES. i can get around on CS and COD 4.
