some games are just too easy. specifically, unreal championship from '02. i mean, i got the equivalent of, like, 12 killtaculars in one game, and i was invincible for 4 games straight.

I dunno. How do you defin skill? different games require different skills. Doom and Marathon require the user to be able to MOVE! and still have a moderate degree of precision, while Raven Shield requires fast reflexes and good precision. other games, such as halo, emphasise quick tactiacal descisiojns while the battlefield series need large-scale strategic management... so my point is... WHAT DO YOU MEAN??

i define skill as the difficulty of the game, and how hard it is for you to do specific tasks. for instance, all that you do in unreal championship is shoot head on, but when playing Halo, you have to surprise your opponent. i dunno. ask one of the other members. i'm not good with explanations. sorry.

i couldnt pick a choice cause i think that some games should have the thinking strategy (warcraft, full spectrum warrior, etc) while some games should be mindless button mashing. it would make more ppl happy. and if you dont like the one. dont buy it. so i say both. i love thinking games, but i enjoy a little mindless game play here and there
