That one specific game you suck at but still like...

[tstone]

For me it's Paperboy.

Back in the day I sucked at it.

I still suck at it.

I'm always going to suck at it.

...but it's still fun for me to play

In with Defender/Stargate before anyone else. LOL
A true love/hate relationship with that game.

Mousetrap. It's really hard and I can't get very far because of the hawk! but I really like playing it now on a dedicated control panel and memorizing the colors of the door buttons/dog so I don't have to look.

 

[Arcadenut]

All of them?

 

[SlikkNikk]

Street Fighter 2. All versions. I love the game, but man, I need to study it more.
Wacko, Centipede/Millipede

 

[Yoeddy]

Donkey Kong Junior, Missile Command, and Asteroids.

I've always felt that Defender/Stargate are paced too slowly.

I'm not terrible at Defender (i.e., I'm good enough to not fight with the controls, and am comfortable playing it.) I actually really like a lot of things about the game, like the controls, sounds, graphics, etc. But every time I play, it just feels like you have to do a lot of work with a lot of concentration and precision, for not that much score. It's like your ship is underpowered, for the number of enemies you're up against.

I wish it was more like Robotron, where it still requires precision, but you're also more able to plow through enemies in greater volume, instead of having to pick every one off.

Tapper and Robotron. I have never got to the aliens on tapper yet and I peak at about 200k on Robotron but i keep trying!

 

[carolinamarcg]

Always loved Stargate but could never get past around 15 waves. Was always in awe of the guys who could rack up millions.

Have never owned one that worked tho. I have generally gotten very good at every game I owned.

[SNESNESCUBE64]

Battlezone. I am awful at that game, I wish I was better at the game because it would be more fun that way.

 

[ArcadeTechGW]

Robotron. Still trying to get a good score.

 

[RetroCJT]

"Munch Mobile" by Centuri. Oddball I know.

 

[DLP]

Stargate (or Defender for that matter).

Last time I played my Stargate, I scored 1,400 points. Lol.

"Munch Mobile" by Centuri. Oddball I know.

Definitely a hard game!

Totally agree with Tutankhamun!

It's fun but damn do I suck at it.

I feel like it would be much more fun (and still not too hard at least for me) if it had 4 or 8-way firing capability.

II don't know if I've ever made it past the 2nd level. If I have, I'm positive I've never made it past the 3rd.

I'm super trash at Joust. I love the game, but I've never managed to beat the default high score. I play it frequently, but never improve.

 

[Griffin]

I suck at every game except Paperboy.

 

[j0novision]

Kickman

 

[bobbyb13]

Yeah, this.

All of them?
