    Rhythm gamers Vs. FPS gamers.

    Me and my friend got into a very heated debate recently, the topic was rhythm gamers and FPS gamers, and who possessed the greater skills.
    I stand by what I said which is that rhythm gamers possess far more skill then those FPS gamers.
    I mean c'mon why do you think there's less experts on guitar hero then there are people who are "godly" at Halo and COD and such?
    Its cause its easy to get good at FPS and own, way to easy for my liking, now im not saying that im a Halo god or anything, but I do find the campaign easy, and I do my fair share of pwning online, and its way easy.
    I am however a very well established "Guitar Hero" and there aren't many like me.

    But whatever, im rambling, the point of this thread is your thoughts, what do you think?
    Who possesses more skill?
    Rhythm or FPS gamers?

    Lets make this into a awesome thread with debates and flaming all over the place.

    They can't get that from you...
    Haven't you ever felt that way about music?
    Here's where it makes the most sense:
    You need it so you don't forget.
    Forget that...
    there are places in this world that aren't made out of stone,
    that there's something inside...
    that they can't get to,
    that they can't touch,
    that's yours"-Andy Dufrense

    Re: Rhythm gamers Vs. FPS gamers.

    Well I play both FPS's and rhythm games. I've played Counter-Strike 1.6 for about 8 years now. I do say that rhythm games require more skill because it's a lot of hand eye coordination than any other game would need. But then again, you have to look at the difficulty of both games. Such as Halo 2 had an auto aiming system I believe, I'm not totally sure since I barely play Halo, some games have handicaps automatically in them, regardless if you can turn them off/on anyways. I just think that rhythm games take more skill, but that's just me.

      neutral; i don't think it's fair to say which is better than which, because each one requires a different hand-eye coordination skill set...

              I think you can't compare both. One uses reflex and good "targeting" skills: just aim in the head and BANG!, while the other uses motor skills: if you see an arrow pointed to left, press the left button; if you see an arrow pointed to right, press the right button; if you see a wall of arrows, read it and hit the ****ing stream or press every button you see and hope that you hit all the notes, lol.

              Now seriously, I really think you can't compare both, because both uses different skills of yours. FPS uses reflex and focus, rhythm uses "hand speed" and motor skills, but uses focus too, but a "different" kind of focus, I think.

                Wrong.
                FPS hand eye coordination is easy, you see something, you point your stick that way, and press a button.
                What?! That's what you call skill?
                NO.

                Kinda wrong.
                Im a amazing "Guitar Hero" toss me a guitar and ill play you Good Riddance by Green Day, [not amazing by any means, but you get the point.]
                But then again, I just tend to have a knack for music.
                Put me in the .1% category.

                      the fact that you have a list with all your friends on it shows just how little friends you have

                        The fact that you use Facebook to gauge your popularity truly shows how little friends you have.

                              The argument is really pointless. There are different levels of skill on both and you can't really achieve perfection. Also you're ****ing retarded.
