Let me let you in on a little secret from further down the old fogey hill: Expecting someone raised on the Match Game and Gong Show to keep up with stuff like Soul Caliber III is just a joke. It's a miracle they even let people like us buy consoles these days!  <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> I got an Xbox a couple years ago. I don't buy any of the games 'til they drop under $15, 'cause that's about how much play I get out of them before getting stumped.I do like some of the role-playing games (Deus Ex, KOTOR, Baldurs Gate, Morrowind), but I also end up online ALL THE TIME looking up the walkthroughs to figure out what I'm doing wrong.I got Xbox Live -- mostly for Crimson Skies -- but never raised my rank above one star. I'm almost always at the bottom of the pile.I bought Rainbow Six 3 more than a year ago, but I've never managed to finish the first mission -- even on the easiest setting.I'd like to be able to play this stuff -- I read Penny Arcade every week and I'm a sucker for the media hype -- but the sad truth is I just don't have the eye-hand-brain coordination for it.
