If you already have a game system or obviously you have a computer you could get into some online games that are free. You can download them or just play online at some websites. You don't necessarily have to pay for games when you play them on the Internet. I know what you mean with others being better than you are. I felt the same way until I got into them. Computer games you might like would include Sodaku (or however you spell it) and Bejeweled. My fiance's dad got addicted to Bejeweled. That's not too challenging of a game, but it's still fun. I don't know what game system your family uses or has, but I really recommend the Wii. I know you'd enjoy it. It's easy to get good at games when you have lots of time to spend on them. Some popular games for XBOX and XBOX 360 are Halo 3 and Guitar Hero. Maybe you've heard of them. Guitar Hero is a huge hit because you're actually playing a guitar and it takes a lot of practice and skill. That's something you can get really good at. On the Wii, bowling is a lot of fun because it's so realistic. You'll get addicted to that one. Halo 3 is fun if you like action with shooting and all that good stuff. I just got my Playstation 3 and like to play a snowboarding games on there...can't remember what it's called, though. I also play a lot of car racing games where I can customize the cars and race them to win more money to customize the cars even more. I don't know what kind of games you're into, but if you have any more ideas, I'm a gameaholic so I guess I'm addicted to that kind of thing. Thanks for commenting. I hope you find some games that work for you. You'll get good at them in no time. By the way, I don't know if you're into simulation and role playing games at all, but my fiance is obsessed with Sims 2 (and all the expansion packs) for computer. She's also got the one to play on the Wii. She loves them. If you like that kind, you could try those too.
