I wasn't born with the ability to program, I had to learn it, which was hard work. I was born with piss-poor co-ordination, and nothing is going to change that. |

My last (only) programming class was in 1986 and I sucked. There's no way I could ever learn it. It's exactly like learning a foreign language and I tried two different languages and sucked ass at them too. And it pains me to say that X's analogy about drawing is spot on. The rest of his comments are idiotic though. ;D |

Haze, when I was young... I had a speach impediment, was frail, clumsy, short, and sick very often. I also was found to have dyslexia. (see, read, write letters/numbers backwards & all directions) I had an imagination that wouldnt stop.. and the room came to life - as I couldnt focus at all. Over the years, all this would be overcame. The worst was when they tried to put me in with the mentally handicapped kids... because they thought I would be too frail to go to regular gym class. I hated this, as I knew I was not handicapped.. just a little slower, and a little frail. I worked my --I'm attempting to get by the auto-censor and should be beaten after I re-read the rules-- off, and eventually, was able to get out of there, and back to regular classes. Skip years later, when I was 20, and decided to take up martial arts. In only a years time... I went from being clumsy and uncoordinated, as well as weak and frail... to being a graceful as a cat, powerful as hell, and a body that could take extreme punishment without ill effect or much pain at all. Physical attributes are Far easier to overcome than any mental issues. You cant just raise your IQ in a year by 50%. But you can master robotron with 2 real controllers in far less than that. Anyone can. And we are taking a few hours worth of play. Not months of practice... and not years. |

Nothing more, as long as you can think things through logically in your head, and come to reasonable conclusions, and come up with a workable solution to the problem then the actual programming is the least of your worries.. Actually I think I'm starting to see why he struggles with it... |

I can always learn more, but I'll always be clumsy, have shaky hands, and poor coordination. That's why I work with computers, not do sport, music or anything like that. Seriously, you could make me practice on it for years, and I still won't be that good at it, yet I can play it naturally with a controller that suits me fine, even if I can't think of any other game I play that uses dual analog sticks in the same way. It's subjective, and if asked my preference to play Robotron I'd say a Dualshock pad, or even a keyboard. |
