My little sister (12 yrs old) wanted to play some games, and she's alright at them, but nowhere near my skill level. That's to be expected because I play way more games than her, but I needed a way to level the playing field so we could both have a little fun. I hate not trying when I'm playing against someone and letting them win, because I don't have fun. But when I play normally, they get frustrated. So during a game of split-screen MW2, she suggested that I only use melee and she can use whatever she wants. Before that, I was winning every game by a ton of kills, but when we gave the new method a shot, it almost evened it out and we both had fun. Anyone else ever make up little handicaps like that? Ones that aren't built into the game?

Nope, I just play as hard as possible, and so does my brother. We are better at different games, but I hate pitying the other skill level. It insults the other player, and I get bored. So I just so no to handicaps. But if your sister is down for it, perfect.

We do no-scope sniper rifle battles split-screen - none of us know how to "properly" do that; we are actually just picking 50 caliber rifles and hoping for the best.  That would be a good handicap for you against your sister.
