Games you are impeccably good at

[Soren37]

I'm pretty good at most games, but I suck at FPS.

Actually, I have a lot of games that I never really play. I mainly just go with what I really like and then go from there.

I guess "Mission" games are other games that I don't like. ie. Monster Hunter Tri. The only one that I've been able to sit through is Phantasy Star 0, just because it was shaped more like an RPG than a mission based game.

I actually am trying to competitive melee/brawl going. One random game I got decent at was Reflex. The only reason is likely because everyone is horrible at using the wiimote to aim, they do not get used to lag shooting, and the scenary was so bad with the graphics one could see a person on the other side of overgrown making it impossible to hide. However, I dropped out of the top 100 for KOs a long time ago I bet. After 60k, I had to literally play for 2-3 hours daily to advance by like one slot.

Speaking of Rez, its not fun if you don't play with the vibrator it comes with.

I am impeccably good at all games that are not on the NES. When it comes to Pacman, Tetris, and things of that nature I don't do so great. Took me until I was 13 to find out that there's more than one level to Pacman.

Saw a YouTube video of the gameplay itself. Alas, it is nothing like what I'm decent at.

I consider myself good at Metroid Fusion to the point where speedrunning in a single sitting is just how I play normally now. While it once took me 4-5 hours (not including deaths causing restarts) it now takes me about 1 hour.

The fuck? I'm stuck on that game, Foxxy.

Oh and I'm insanely good at Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Pretty simple game, though.

Actually, Obviam X Eclipse X Rez Vibrator was the joke I was going for, IF eclipse played it (and she doesn't).

Umm... I'm generally bad-mediocre at games (but I try hard so gimme a break huh?) Some games that I LOVE to play and beat OVER AND OVER AND OVER are any golden sun title (currently working through dark dawn and it's everything i'd hoped for and more, despite some rather morbid parts of it...), metroid: zero mission, pokemon (but those games are absurdly easy if you don't play competitively... which I do, and subsequently fail at except in 5th gen because no one knows 5th gen well enough and I crush them with my team that will probably become mediocre when 5th gen really gets kicking competitively... ehehe... Baldur's Gate I and II, and Icewind Dale I & II... and any FE game I have ever gotten my grubby little paws on. (only 4... :'() also, I suck at First Person Shooters, and in real life I'm the clumsiest person with the worst hand eye coordination out of the majority of the people I know... >.>

I LOVE F-Zero X, but let's be honest here, I suck at that game so bad.

[Anouleth]

I couldn't get past Nightmare, and I remember the bit with the ice blobs being really difficult as well.

[Mary Sue]

I'm pretty good at most action games I play, such as DMC and Bayonettta

Also, Yggdra Union is a specialty of mine. It's notoriously difficult on hard mode, but I've played it so much that only 2 maps really stand out as giving me trouble, both of them involving Gulcasa.....

So the odds of me finding this. . .are about the same as me finding Baten Kaitos Origins.

I'll keep an eye out for it. Thanks!

Well keep up the search, Baten Kaitos Origins is easily one of the best RPGs I've played (and trust me when I say I have played A LOT of RPGs)

[Florete]

The fuck? I'm stuck on that game, Foxxy.

Haha, which part?

I couldn't get past Nightmare, and I remember the bit with the ice blobs being really difficult as well.

Yeah, that was pretty tough my first few times through.

[The Envoy of the Beginning]

This.

Also, I am getting better at Super Metroid. I have done a 100% run of that game in less than 100 minutes. Looking to do an any% run in less than an hour (or maybe less than 50 minutes).

I plan on doing a Hard Mode speed run eventually. It should be amusing, assuming that I don't get Russell killed every other map.

Of course! I'm not going to ignore a game that takes place in a universe where my home is front and center!

[Life]

Haha, which part?

I beat it now but Nightmare and the SA-X both really pissed me off. Along with the final boss (ended up using Savestates just as quick restarts in that battle since I didn't feel like running from the save room).

I agree with this statement. I also stand behind The Apotheosis being the single cheapest attack in video game history (criticals on every hit in a game without criticals).

I never got to play Baten Kaitos. Always heard about how cool it was. A relative gave me a Gamecube a bit back, maybe I'll look around the bargain bins to see what I can find.

GET IT! My state is front and center!

Oh, and the battle system takes a bit to get used to, but it's a ton of fun!

This.

It's one of those obnoxious card based battle systems but this one seems to actually work (BK:EWatLO also worked but that one was slow while this is high paced). I suggest you watch a video of arena battles to get a sense of how it works. Either that or just watch The Apotheosis (Godling's Rapture broke the game even though I don't personally like Scension->Ascension->Transcension).

[Frosty]

Well... I'm pretty much PWN in Final Fantasy (It's actually FFI - FFIX), The Super Mario Series (cause I'm a whore for that Fireflower), Fire Emblem 8 (Cause of Seth, duh... XD), Gran Turismo.... (Subaru Impreza FTW) However I'm a bit PWN in Starcraft (Come my lovely siege tanks, but I'm more of a map maker), Command and Conquer series (Red Alert 2, Yuri's Revenge, Generals and Tiberian Sun first comes to mind) and I'm already getting the ropes on the old SNES game known as Secret of Mana or Seiken Densetsu series... it's pretty good!

However I suck usually at Shooting games either it is FPS or TPS, the only game I can pass decently is Resident Evil... I'm okay with the Megaman X series, but I suck at Megaman Zero.... I completely suck at most FPS such as Counter-Strike especially when playing with Hard Mode controlled computer enemies, since they like to come out of nowhere...

The games that I completely suck at is Prince of Persia and those friggin' chain stunts makes it worse considering I'm pretty slow at advancing...

[Mary Sue]

I agree with this statement. I also stand behind The Apotheosis being the single cheapest attack in video game history (criticals on every hit in a game without criticals).

The game, once you get Godling's Rapture, is basically to the point where virtually all strategy after its acquisition devolves into "Assemble The Apotheosis and win". Frigid Queen Festival isn't half bad either.

@Eclipse

I actually wasn't so hot about the first game (the voice acting....), but Origins is in a class by itself in terms of how good it is. The story is superb, and though there are only 3 main characters, they each have more personality, depth, and development than the entire cast of the last game put together.

Oh, but enough about BK. Let's not completely derail this topic....

[Florete]

Nightmare is the bane of all my speedruns (him and Yakuza). I feel you on that one. By final boss do you mean the SA-X or Omega Metroid? Both of them can actually be done quite easily, though the formula for the SA-X may take some practice to get down. It may also be easier on a cartridge, seeing as you seem to be emulating it.

[Mekchrious]

I used to be really good at Starcraft, playing around B+ ranking. And when I still had an Xbox, I was king at Halo 3 as well as Oblivion. I don't really suck at any games because I usually play them enough to get good with them.

[deleted35362]

Somehow, I'm beating F-Zero X cups on Master difficulty.

[Iris]

I am beast at Chrono Cross. Or any jRPG, really. Just RPG's as a whole I guess.

Also, tactics games like FF:TA, and FE.

Thinking games like AA.

OH AND LOLSTARCRAFT. I owned at battlenet. My copy doesn't work anymore, and I don't think I'm getting II any time soon...

Hmm. I can't play FPS for my life, I have played COD MW 1 & 2, but the graphics give me headaches for no apparent reason. ; w ;

I used to be good at Street Fighter, but not anymore. I cannot play Tekken for my life.

COD Modern Warfare probably gives you headaches from the vibrant and graphic

picture, including detailed explosions. That game can give me a headache without
