Left 4 Dead
Lest you all think that i do nothing but complain about my body let me tell you about my experience with Left 4 Dead.
Silas hands me the controller to the Xbox and says, "Here, you should play the first level." So i take the controller and he loads up the game. As the introductory movie plays the look on my face gets sourer and sourer. Already i dislike first-person shooters, they're just too stressful. But i figured that zombies at least are slow and will give me plenty of opportunity to blow them up. But, as evidenced by the introduction, the zombies in Left 4 Dead are anything but slow. In fact, not only are they blazingly fast, they're also pretty smart. As the video ends i hand the controller back to Silas.
"I don't want to play this game. I like my zombies slow and dumb, not fast and smart. Forget it."
Someone just stick me in front of SimCity or Caesar 4 for a while and I'll be happy as a clam. All this shooting and healing and running away is too much for me. Better yet, get me out into the real-live mountains and make me hike up and down the craggy bits. THAT i can handle.
