Hell I will take that challenge. I would say that your opinion is wrong. I frequently play both Console shooters and PC ones and can play both farely well frequently getting 15 kill streaks in MAG. However there is just no denying that a mouse can beat both an anolgue stick and for the time being a wii remote. The wii remote still hows it's flaws with most games with aiming and still has a slight stutter, however it does have the potential to be better.
What standard controllers provide a bonus for is the analogue stick for movement purposes. If i could take the wii nunchuk and combine it with a mouse that would the best control method I could think of. Lets take another genre. Hypotheticlly if you could clone the worlds greatest street fighter player and have them play against eachother one using a DualShock, the other using a 360 controller. The one using the ps3 would win. The 360 D-Pad just sucks. Going back to controllers again, well use me as an example as i can use both really damn good. If you could clone me and had one of me using a mouse and the other using a Dualshock. 9/10 the one of me using the mouse will get that kill. Movement and precision with a mouse is way more accurate then a analogue stick to aim with. Does this mean you will play better with a mouse? Right now. Maybe, maybe not, but most likely so since you're probably so use to using a controller. It's like using Wacom tablet for art. Hard at first, but once you get it down you don't want to go back. |
Read the rest of the thread. :-p
I don't know why people have such a hard time accepting I like controllers better than mouse and keyboard. I've had extensive use of both and I just simply like controllers better. Even in something like Left4Dead where I can directly compare both, I prefer the controller.
(also, I know someone who kicks serious ass in SFIV with the 360 controller, even against people with fight sticks)
