Aaaargh, I'm running out of excuses!
Grasshopper:
I remember years ago when classic games were still in the arcades thinking I could master game X if only I had enough money to feed the machine.
Then when MAME came out I thought to myself I could master game X if only I had proper arcade controls.
Then I built a control panel with proper arcade conponents and said to myself I could master game X if only I had enough time to play the game to the end in one sitting.
Now I'm making use of MAME's save state feature and I still can't get to the end of many games.
To give one example, I can't get past the boss at the beginning of the third stage of Rastan (anyone have any tips?) even with unlimited continues. Also, I think I'm now worse at Defender than I was 20 years ago.
Hmm, what excuse shall I use next?

just tell people you are not trying to beat the game and that you are just reliving the moments of playing the game.....

I read that as "I suck at this game, don't look at me while I'm playing"
;D
