I need to vent. And I need advice, maybe. Or some place to pass the blame other than my own retardation. Or something.

I've been playing Xbox 360 online lately... speaking specifically of Call of Duty 4, Gears of War 2... and I am completely awful at every turn. It's not even just that the other team that round happens to be better than me or that I'm having a streak of bad luck or that I need more time to play and improve, I completely suck every single round.

I am sick and tired of trying my hardest to be alert and even seeing the enemy before they see me more often lately...and then losing a firefight. No manner of gun upgrades or aiming practice makes any difference I am simply awful at every round.

I love shooters. But at the moment, I'm desperately searching for a more enjoyable and accessible genre. I have zero interest in fighters and rhythm games. I am fed up with online gaming right now. It's part of the reason I chose the 360; I adore online gaming, I always have. But I'm in search of some version or variation of it that I don't despise and suck at.

UGH. Rant over for now. Comments welcome.

tl;dr: I suck really, really, really hard at online 360 FPS's no matter what I do. What's a more accessible online game/genre?
