I hadn't played NG2 since July (360 at home, me being away and all), and tried to pick it up a few days ago.

Before, I was working my way through the middle of Master Ninja. I tried to load my latest save point, and got absolutely wiped... it was horrific. I fear that I do not have the courage to reattain the mad skillz that are clearly perishable...

Racing games are difficult to switch over to one another because all the car specs and movement/sensativity are different in each racing game

Shooting games it all depends on the game's mechanics

RTS it's only if you forget a certain strategy you get screwed


that's from my own personal experience

It happens to me. It's not so much a loss of skill, it's jsut that I forget it. It's mostly the different control schemes. I'll master one, and then move on to another. When I go back to it, I have to learn it again, but once I have it down, the skill is unleashed, and I'm back on top!
