What is one particularly bad instance that knocked you down a peg in your self confidence as a gamer? For instance, I was just beat by a 59 year old british woman in tetris.

Hehe, that's awesome. But why were you playing Tetris with an old woman?

I've had quite a few in my gaming life. My worst moment is probably getting school over and over again in Tekken 5 by my cousin who's never touched the game in his life. He button-mashed Steve Fox, and my Brian Fury wept.

Online version. I'm suddenly addicted to tetris and i have no clue why. But in profile info you can put your age, sex, and country.

My little brother does that to me in SoulCalibur all the freaking time! He punch spams with Necrid. I can only beat him when he sneezes or something!

Basically any time a kid 10 or under kills me in Call of Duty 4 I die a little inside.

Getting killed by Kariz in any game because he's a n00b.

But really playing and having liked Runescape is a big dent.

where do you play tetris online...i'm intrigued can you put a link up or tell me where. but i would have to say...when i went back to play any game after a long break and was thrown around like a n00b. (happened in Gears of war, Halo 3, and GH)

Yeah I've got to agree with Short Dude. Whenever I stop playing a FPS game for a while and then play a completely different game for a while, E.G Fable 2 as opposed to CoD, I'll take a while to get used to the gameplay again. So yeah, that kind of makes me get owned in most matches for a while.

Ermm i'd say when i lost all my data from LittleBigPlanet and i had to start all over again. And i went on the game again with friends and it was just my poor naked sackboy who could only play the first 3 levels :(

Viva pinata is nothing to be ashamed of!

Ah yes, I recall a time in which I battled my fellow gamers in a heated match of Call of Duty 4. We shot and dodged and respawned, only to repeat again for dozens of minutes! When the adrenaline calmed down and the dust settled, my hard-earned score was displayed:

0 kills, 16 deaths.

I cried myself to sleep for shame! How could it come to this? Am I not hamsterly enough? Can my short paws not reach WASD and the mouse fast enough? Was I not...quixotic enough? Too much so? Oh, the world (and by extension, me) shall never know.

Ohmy god I just beat Evrae. I hated him, although it only took me 5 times. He was.... well... I guess i'll say frustrating cause this is a "family" site. Kind of.

When I get into a slagging match with someone online, usually in a COD:4 lobby :lol: and after I win and then I realise I stooped to their level. (I'm getting better at counting to 10)

Every time I play FIFA or PES with my brother. He doesn't even have an Xbox360 or a PS3, but he comes over for a night and just beats me every single time. I might win 1 or draw 1 match, but overall he always wins.. :angry:

Other than trying to defend Value when I have a PS3 (which I dont do anymore) ...getting killed 3 times in a row to a person with the gametag PimpGrandpa or something like that in Battlefield 1943.

Probably getting too angry too quickly on some games.

Although i've calmed down a load over the past few months. (reaslised there is no point getting angry over nothing . . . literally nothing lol.)
