Funny that this was brought up. I was just discussing this with my best friend and my fiancee over a game of Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour. We are all good at several genres of video games, but our talent is very inconsistent... it's like sports, almost. You'll have a player in a slump (see this spring's Derek Jeter) who can't seem to win despite pulling out all the tricks and combos they know. Suddenly, it all clicks together during one round, one combo, a pause to load (on the PS2, that is), etc. After that, they come out swinging and every button press is smooth as silk. One becomes "clutch" like a Michael Jordan (pre-Wizards) fadeaway jumper, and all opponents fall before them.
Weird. Just weird. No wonder there are people making hundreds of thousands of dollars in major video game tourneys; this really is like a sport with no athletics!
