What game do you stink at?

Brink · Post by **Brink** » Wed Apr 23, 2003 8:13 am

I currently suck at every single fighting game out there(2D/3D, makes no difference to me), and possibly games that require the sustained usage of lightning-quick reflexes over a long period of time.It is no wonder that my friends often play me as an ego-booster after they get beaten by someone whose skills are superior to theirs

Hello, @Brink! Nice to see you, again.

Yep, I'm in the same boat.

G'day Brink! Been awhile. Busy with study?

I am bad news at any game requiring lightning reflexes/advanced coordination skills etc.

Hiya fabs

.Good to see you again as well

.

I am pretty shocked to find myself in the same boat as you are in, though, considering the age difference between the two of us

HAH! - that's what you think ......... ehhh ... forget that please. I don't know anything where I can be hold liable for something.

To quote Manuel from Falty Towers: I know nothing.

@Brink - hiya old buddy, nice of you to drop by

How you doing?

The results are the same, the causes are simply different. In your case, it's probably in-breeding, while in mine, it's senile dementia.

@fable-In-breeding?I'm pretty sure that my parents weren't related to each other before they got married.....erm, hang on for a sec.....

*goes off to check out my family tree chart*

Yeap....no signs of in-breeding over there

Btw, I do have above average reflexes(I think), it's just that I tend to lose my concentration after a short while(hence, my combos usually start out good, but I'll end up button-mashing my way through

)

My reflexes are pretty good, too. I just get carried away with the excitement, and start running around the walls of the room. That tends to make controlling the realtime action difficult.

Ha! Losers. All of you.

I never encountered a game I was not able to dominate.

Even if it's a matter of throwing the CD on the ground and jumping on it until it's reduced to atomic motes, right?

As someone who got his start with console games, I have learned that the proper etiquette is to throw/smash controlers not CDs/cartridges.
