I’m not very good at video games, but sometimes I enjoy playing them. Through some generosity of a friend of my wife, I have a big collection of PlayStation Portable (PSP) games. One of the most recent ones I got was SOCOM U.S. Navy SEALS Fireteam Bravo. While I’m not very good, I managed to get through the entire campaign mode of the game in about 1.5 weeks which is quite impressive for my lack of skills. I play to complete the game so I don’t also get the best scores or complete the missions with an A rating, but I managed to get through it. There is still more to play including online and something called Instant Action, but I made it through the 12 missions. Unlike the PS2 version of this game, it only saved at the end of a mission, so if you didn’t make it through, you had to start over. While the PS2 version also saves at the end, as long as you don’t quit the game, you’re taken back to a “temporary” save point. For me, this makes the game enjoyable as I can complete missions without having to make it through in one try.
I haven’t played much online, but might have to give it a try. It might be embarrassing to play against teenagers and get the crap beat out of me.
