I felt the same way, honestly. I almost put down the game after an hour because I was irritated. In a rare stroke of patience, I kept plugging away and started really enjoying the game later on.
Naz, I know you've played a lot of shooters, as have I. We're probably the wrong people to talk about FPS controls because I get the feeling you're like me: if even one little thing is buggered in an FPS control scheme, we start howling bloody murder about the control system. People who don't play many shooters probably wouldn't even notice the problems in Condemned.
I even put down The Orange Box for the 360 because I was so irritated at the controls and because I know how HL2 is supposed to control. I'll pick it up again when I get my PC rig going.
