Okay, it's taken me years to admit it: I REALLY suck.
My mum used to beat me at Tekken and Tony Hawks
My brothers beat me at every game in the world, instantly. No practise. I could have been playing a game for a year, and then, they ask to give me a game. BLAM. I somehow end up with negative kills.
Hell, I've sold all my consoles, switched to Mac, and resided myself to smartphone games. Angry Birds pissed me off. I miss the fruit in Fruit Ninja. And don't get me started on Cut the Rope.
The final straw was when my girlfriend borrowed my phone in the airport the other day.... and beat every single one of my high scores. I tried to make out like I didn't care... but have secretly been deliberating dropping my phone in the toilet, or something (I can't just "wipe" the scores... too obvious, and the ridicule would be worse).
I have some accolades worth displaying on my trophies/achievements back when I had consoles... such as completing the CoD games on Vet (for me, that was like the krypton factor).... but that was an accomplishment of time and patience, not skill.
I don't get it. I'm technologically apt, so I'm not like my dad who just stares at the grass and then the sky in an FPS. I put a lot of time into some games (so, it's not a practise thing). I stay calm, because I know I suck, so it's not an anger thing. And I play lacrosse, so it's not a reflex thing.
Maybe I was born with two left thumbs (incidentally, I'm an AWESOME dancer).
Anyway, anybody else like to come out and admit they suck donkey balls and Donkey Kong?
