Did anyone teach you how to play video games?

a lil ot but the most infuriating shyt is when you go over somebody's house.. and they suggest playing some shyt you never played.

and the rest of the night is them whooping your ass with these super combos while you're trying to run away for some practice time

There was one older cat I was always cool with at the arcades back in the day. He used to school me on things for Mortal Kombat, but that was about it.

it's a bit different these days playing Assassins Creed than when i started playing Sonic on the megadrive but you shouldn't hand it to them on a silver platter.

Yeah, I had a similar experience at the arcade round my way in my early teen years. These older cats there (like 25+) were big into the KOF series, so they'd throw me some pointers on that there since at the time KOF was only on the neo geo and at arcades.

Thing is too, games these days hand themselves on a silver platter. They typically have fairly in-depth tutorials at the beginning of the game, but i notice most youth of today will by-pass it, only to ask you for how to do what the damn game just showed them what to do. Ignorance to reading.
