Okay, Temple, I am hereby opening up shop. The point of this thread is for me to go through a video game I've never played before and take a log of how badly I suck at it. This could be screenshots, video, plain text, whatever I feel like doing. The catch? I don't know what game I'm doing yet. This is where you come in. Suggest a game to me that I haven't played yet. For best results, I should suck at the game. Genres of games I suck at include, but are certainly not limited to: *Platformers (Mario and the like) *Sh'umps (Shoot-'em-ups, like Gradius) *Roguelikes (like Nethack) For best results, I should be able to play it on my computer so I can record my progress. I use an old-arse iBook G4 with less than a gig of memory, if that helps you. I am open to suggestions. So suggest away. Examples of the format I'm going to be using can be found at http://fromearth.net/LetsPlay. The videos! Kirby Superstar: Arena Freeciv: Running Civilization Into the Ground [[EDIT, 22 July 2008]]: Vimeo (where I was hosting two of these videos) has just decided that all gaming videos are going to be deleted. I'm removing them from Vimeo as a result. Nethack will probably not go back up because I hate how it turned out; Freeciv will if I ever get around to doing it again. Which reminds me; the program I was using to record this was shareware and expired. Therefore I can't use it, or at least without a big stinkin' "REGISTER THIS SHIT" notice superimposed all across the screen. So yeah, this project was a failure. |

Try classic games like Earthworm Jim, and there is also this game for GC that I only played once, it is called Custom Robo (it sucks) and also what Draco recommended is more than enough. |

Play DDR. And we want to see you dancing, too, not just the screen with the arrows.

Do you suck at games like Civilization? That could be interesting, too.

Do what I did and get the Mario version of DDR. XD Skies of Arcadia Legends is also a good choice if you like RPGs, as is Tales of Symphonia. |

Now Draco, just because you had a relationship with Kratos and then had an affair with Lloyd and then Kratos found out and cheated on you with Raine resulting in Genis does not mean you should hold something against the whole game for their acts. |

You'll just buy anything if Nintendo slapped Mario's face on it, won't you? On Topic: Hinoa should totally play an MMO. Or maybe an RTS. It's too bad you can only use PC equipment, or I'd pay money to see you sing in Karaoke Revolution or the like. |

And you'll buy anything if it involves lolitas under the age of 15. Nah, I'd just never played a DDR game before. I'm too embarrased to do it in arcades... And I was ten, everyone's dumb at that age. |
