None.

Skilled gamers do not associate or limit themselves to one brand.


Tell that to the two guys that are closing in on 1,000,000 achievement points.

Achievement points don't mean dick. It just means they buy every game the gets released. 

No it doesn't there aren't that many games that offer a easy 1000 achievement points you have no clue about gaming skills.

Most games don't have easy achievements they take time and a lot of them skill.

FPS - PC easily, there is a reason why console shooters are so slow.


I agree with FPS. That vidoe brings back some memories,  I spent countless on Quake and UT.

My favourite (wth the mods installed) of all time though is.

Whichever user base contains the least amount of young kids, parents and elders. They should have spent the least amount time playing games and should be less experienced.


I think young kids along with teenagers spend the most time playing games as they are the ones with most free time on their hands.

edit- And its easier for young kids to learn and adapt quicker than adults, at least that's what the experts say I think.


If you were to face off with yourself from ten years ago in any video game, who do you think would win?

Sony - Most asians.
Long time gamers that have a lot of experience.

Otherwise PC - Especially for shooters.There is no competition against FPS and Strategy Progamers there.
Neither Halo or CoD or any other console shooter from any console takes skill.

COD takes heaps of skill dude. ive played easily 2000+ hours of COD in my life and im still getting better. id crush you at COD cause im so much more skilled than you. you wouldn't stand a chance. probably wouldn't even get a kill on me no matter how long we played.

Mainly because you know the level layouts and where to camp (if you are one of those).  When I played CoD I would post up sometimes but then after 1-3 kills or so I would move on.  However, I did run and gun a lot with SMGs and assualt rifles.  CoD is more about knowing the levels than anything else (just like most FPS).  However, if you were to both play a new FPS day 1 that you both didn't know perhaps you would be better overall.


you have no idea what it takes to dominate in COD dude. there are hundreds of different skills needed to be a great player. knowing the map layouts is nothing. Black Ops 2 just came out a day ago and im absolutely dominating (3.16 kd) cause i have a so many different skills i've worked on.

here just a few of the many skills... dropshotting, quickscoping, understanding how to manipulate spawns, using the uav like a pro, knowing what team mates have which flanks covered, jump shotting round corners, sound whoring....

There is no strict definition of "skill". So hard to tell. It's like asking which sport has the most skilled players?

You have no idea who the fuck you are talking to dude.  I was in the top 100 in HCTDM and HCHQ on BO Wii (sure only out of ~1.3m people).  Let me take a wild guess, you stick to mainly regular modes with a HUD and map.  Taking advantage of spawn points is hardly skill.  Keep flaunting your FPS skills because you aren't going to impress that many people.  I now view FPS in the same light as MMOs, a waste of time.

Old Nintendo fans that grew up with the NES, like me. I'm pretty much good at any game I play.


i think this is not related to nes but the time nes was a gaming platform. games were so hard at this time... i remember me playing gauntlet on master system for hours and hours while realizing it does not really end... and doubted my own skills ;)

Most Asians in America I know prefer 360 over PS3, so I don't know which region you are talking about. Long time gamers are Nintendo fans who experience some of the hardest game ever on the NES and SNES.

Asians in America are not as good as Asians in Asia.

We Americanized them and now some of them have too fat of fingers to play properly.
