The Highest Level of Gaming Skills
D
The World of Gaming is made of 3 kinds of people :
The Noobs,which are humans who can´t understand how to play or a game,can´t play it properly,or even fail during the most easy moments.
The Gamers,The guys who play games but aren´t terribly bad or terribly good.
The Hardcores,They give 100% of themselves even during moments when it isn´t needed and can Ace a stage or a fight without losing lifes or taking damage.
But Right now at this moment,i´m going to CREATE a new level of gaming skill...Somenthing Far superior from the ordinary Hardcore,somenthing that not even us humans can understand!I shall name this level of skill...LEGENDARY!
Now Tell us,Do you have what it takes to be a Legend?
This Topic is for posting your highest demonstration of skills,Tell-me what you have done that is so incredible!Post Anything that you think that needs a high deal of Skill or Luck to be done!Starting with Myself...I Won a fight agaisn´t a team of 3 four tailed kyuubis in Naruto Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3 for PSP on the hardest difficult without using Ultimate Jutsus and without recovering life with those cheap items while using Hinata!Also i managed to Defeat Savato on Trauma Center Under the knife for DS on Operation X-7,which is really hard.And during a Yu-gi-oh Tag Force 4 duel agaisn´t Jack Atlas i managed to draw 10 times during the Rock-Paper-Scizors game!But i guess that counts as luck...Lucky me! ^-^Now what about you?

I believe that there is already a gaming lvl like that.
Its usually called "God".
Also.... you better didn't abused the barrier like skill and traped all 3 Foxes in a corner while spamming the jutsu right?
My opinion of "god" players goes along these lines:
Spoiler
Besides, i don't have anything interesting to shown off.
Maybe beating Megaman Zero 3 with Grade 100 or some bosses of Megaman Battle Network, thats it though.
But being "Legendary" players mean that it could increase their level of anxiety and can actually result in anxiety disorder ;D

And unless you're born legendary, trying to achieve 'god' kinda gives the impression you got no life =P plus you've got the wrong definition for noobs. Noobs = newcomers, hence not skillful yet/you suck in a game(which I have no idea why some people feel is a crime -.-)

You are right, and everyone is a noob when they they do things they never did before for the first time. It is better to call noobs, rookie >:D
I beat Ultimate weapon on my 15th try, do I qualify?

Turn-Based games require thinking rather than skill.
Hardcore gamer? you meant this one right?
;D

Skill is such a vague term that it encompasses 'thinking'.

Dumb statement.
Thinking IS A SKILL!
... I survived to that first town in Mother 1 dying only once.
I'm so hardcore

Me and my cousins crash consecutively like 6 times in a row while playing Burnout 3...hardcore in the opposite way =P

Thinking within a pseudo-paused game is NOT skill in my opinion.
Thinking itself is intrinsic ability. It could not be developed as much as some other skills can. If you're not that smart in the first place, it will be hard for you to be very good in something that require it as it is not something that could be honed like the "ability to change weapons in a blinding speed". So in My OPINION thinking is not a skill.Thinking in a game is a complement to the knowledge that a player has on the game. For instance, in an RTS, if a player is getting better and better with the strategy and tactics, that is because he/she is getting more familiar with the game units, tech tree and various permutations and combinations. It is not because the player's IQ suddenly increased, it is because of the knowledge that he/she gained which in turn helps him/her to plan and prepare better before a match. All that happens in a paused environment. Turn-based game is of this nature. It is partially paused.However, thinking in a Real-Time environment is skill. That is because nothing waits for you. In an FPS, if you're slow to think, you're a goner. Your team will perform terribly in the case of a Team Deathmatch. Thinking "what to do now" in a pressuring surrounding is something that i've seen so much people improved upon. So it is a skill in my opinion as it can progressively be better and better with the player.

Actually, it is not that hard to play in FPS game, I shoot the moment something moves, enemy or friendly units, in the end, most of my teammates died and I am the only one surviving and guess what? I throw a grenade and suicide, Match Draw >:D

FPS requires thinking underfire, and I tend to go gung ho...I prefer to be the back of the lines planting traps and firing from long range...
Not sniping though, I keep ending up sniper fodder :(
I think that "god" (or "mad", I don't know if there will be some difference XD) is the person who max out the stats of a character in disgaea (level max, max level weapon and equipment with max residents X2)O_O

Who says thinking can't be developed. Intelligence knows no boundaries. Thinking IS a skill. It's just so underrated no one think it is a skill. And how can you justify pressing a button to shoot something that moves isn't instinctive? I can argue that people that are really good at FPS played the game so much their body reacts automatically to something the eye sees and with practice becomes really fast and accurate at it. Thinking IS a skill. You just haven't realize it yet =P
anybody that can complete ace combat 6 on ace is legendary/god whatever you want to call it
I
i beated contra 3 on hard dificulty, alone, does that count to be a hardcore gamer?
and its considered to be one of the hardest games ever made!!
S
Hardcore maybe, but not "God"
Lets see. If I had to name one God of video games,
