Does anyone else enjoy certain games even though you're bad at the game?

I'm kind of bad at Gears, but I've really been enjoying one of the games lately. Is anyone else like this?

Depends, I love Ninja Gaiden games, and I wouldnt say I suck at them, but they are really really hard games. I am naturally attracted to really hard games

I'm pretty crappy when it comes to combat in Batman: AA. I'm lucky if I ever get a combo to like 5 or 6 hits.

I play call of Duty black ops, and I pretty much suck at it. When I play with my friends, I know Im the easy kill but its fun :)

My Halo skills are in danger of suck starting a quantum singularity. But I still play it. It's fun and I stick to Rumble Pit usually so my suck doesn't rub off on teammates.

Hack n Slash games like Bayonetta or DMC4, I love them but usually cannot play on a difficulty above normal without getting frustrated and rage quit. Also the achievements for the ultra mega super duper high combos are out of my league.

Still I love those games and enjoy every second of them.

Others like Splatterhouse or Dante's Inferno, those are simpler to play, therefore I can finish them on the higher difficulty setting.

Love those games!

I'm terrible at Crysis 2 and Gears 2, but I still play them. I stick to objective games so I don't hurt my teammates.

I'm terrible at fighters but I still play them from time to time. I'm horrible at Black Ops and Halo Reach too, but they're all I play online. I suck but it's still fun!

fighting games love them but always get beat :P

Im not very good at first person shooters but absolutly love halo reach :)

I really suck at Gears...

But that doesn't stop me from playing :D Yes, yes, sometimes time slows when that pure metal cuts into your shoulder, and it gets you depressed, sometimes mad, but it feels oh so good to make him pay soon after

I'm pretty horrible at any shooting games that aren't for the PC, but that doesn't stop me from giving it the old college try. Also I'm better at fighting games when I have the arcade style controller.

I tend to stay away from competitive games because im no good at them. This is mainly because i do not put in the effort to get better. So most the time if im bad at the game i rarely consider it unless asked to play.

A few games i'm rubbish at on the Sega collection which i still enjoy, but really if you're awful at a game most likely thing is you'll get frustrated and dislike it.

Yes, all the time. The best example of this, for me, is pinball. I can play Pinball FX2 for hours, but I am horrible at it.

I love to play Forza Motorsports and other racing games. However, I am horrible at them against people online so I usually only play them offline against the computer...on easy.

Most fighting games I'm not very good at but I still enjoy the visiuals and action on screen.

hahaha I thought I was the only epic fail out there at this. I got near perfect scores on the predator challenges but I couldn't do any good in the combo challenges. I blame clunky controls. :P

I LOVE playing fighting games but i never win :( Even when people are screwing around with me and taunting me online, i still get my ass beat

A couple of games, like SF4. I just claim the game is riggedor somethingso I don't feel as bad as I actually am. :lol:

I get frusterated when i'm bad at a game. I usually return them and get credit for them.

I would ultimately have to say just about any Halo game. I was fairly good at Halo 2 back in the day but of course I had time to play alot more multiplayer and there were a whole lot less people online and Xbox live in particular. Now I play Halo Reach and find it rather difficult to get any number of kills or wins. I still love playing the game because of the large number of game modes like firefight. Great stuff.

Honestly it depends.

A game that holds too much serious-ness like COD is kinda of annoying to suck at.

But games like Shadowrun are pure enjoyment to me. (even though I am a beast at shadowrun now)

halo reach, im not bad but im not good either and get owned often

I'm amazing at every game I've ever played. Lol jk, I suck at most rts games, yet I enjoy them. I just have no idea how to be good at them xD.

Dragon Age Origins was quite challenging for me, but I loved it for the story.

I kind of like being bad or "new" at a game. I always just have a good time when I know I can blame it on something. I get on MW2 every now and then, and even tried FC2 last week. I was kind of holding my own, but I was still having a good time with something fresh.

My problem is being pretty good at a game (BC2), and getting owned every once in a while. It's much harder to swallow and keep your pride when you can only blame yourself for a lousy match.

Compared to most, I sucked at both MW2 and Black ops. But i still had a lot of fun playing. I would occasionally play a good game, which made it even better.

im trying to get high up on the crazy taxi leaderboard, but as it turns out im actually nowhere near good enough. its still fun though trying to get the highest score you can.

btw where did you get your gamercard from?

no... i hate games if im bad at them

im a sore loser

haha
