The stupidity to say one is a "better" player than the other one is a new low. Especially when your source is a random blog post. |
Racing is the only genre where the controller is better than the Keyboard Mouse.
The thing about Fighting and Sports games is that, since both genres aren't popular on PC, the developers don't try to make full use of PC's Keyboard Mouse.
In Fighting games, the keyboard is much better than the controller for basic attacks/movements. The layed out design of the keys allow for a faster input than the usual controllers.
The problem is the special attacks, where you'd need to rotate the movement keys to perform those attacks. This is why the specific controllers for fighting games have the attack keys layed out, but have a stick for the movement and special attacks.
In Sports games, they simply refuse to develop a new method of control with a mouse because sports games aren't popular on PC. The Wii has a FiFA or PES game where you use the wiimote in the way you use a mouse to play the game, which they still haven't brought to PC.
