Have we talked about Left 4 Dead yet?
Dimmukane:
I have seen evidence to the contrary, is all I'm sayin'.
Scandanavian War Machine:
man, i am pretty tired of snobby PC gamers saying all the ridiculous things that they like to say.
congratulations, Joe PC, you have an opinion! it's not necessarily right, get over yourself.
"using a mouse is way more accurate than a joystick." Well, then using your own logic i could say that if you had a PC gamer and console game who were equally skilled at Game X standing next to each other, the console gamer would be the more talented one, because his platform of choice was more difficult to master. right? right.
anyway, joystick sensitivity can be adjusted just like a mouse can. honestly, as far as controls go there is no difference between the two platforms besides personal preference (and the sheer number of buttons, obviously).
now, don't think that i'm the other side of the spectrum either (a console elitist/fanboy/whatever). i play games on both, i just generally don't play shooters on PC because i am pretty shit at it, and also i don't have a proper computer chair so it's literally a pain in the ass. i use my PC for stuff like Civ4 and Spore because i can't play those on my 360 or PS3.
the one exception is STALKER, which i caved in and bought because i heard so many good things about it.
bah sorry for the off-topic rant. it's just that all day long i hear "PC gaming is teh shitzz, fukin n00bzorz!!!11!!one!!!1!" and there's only so much i can take.
Melodic:
I think we're just going to have to live with SHARK's inherent elitism, but he's still partially true. I haven't seen anyone with a controller come close to having the precision of even an average gamer with a mouse. I'm not saying one is better than the other, simply that it seems to me that it's absolutely impossible to have that same level of high sensitivity AND accuracy in a joystick setup. Shadowrun (GFWL) was a great example of this because it actually limited the maximum sensitivity allowed on the PC's end to level the playing field.
ANYWAYS, Easter egg in the second stage of the Subway level of No Mercy.
est:
Man, now I am getting a near-overwhelming urge to go buy L4D on the 360 and practice until I am as good at it on the 360 as the pc.
Dimmukane:
I am pretty average on PC, and I can say with confidence that I am better on the 360. Part of this is because I have steady fingers, but not steady hands, so recovering my aim from kickback is easier for me with a controller. Also, my finger reaction time is better than my wrist reaction time. There are other reasons, I'm just saying that I am definitely better on consoles than I am on PC's. Case in point: I did most of the Portal puzzles in the first try (also my first playthrough) on the 360. I ran into trouble towards the end of the PC version because I couldn't move my mouse fast or accurately enough (limited by desk space). Also, I died less on my run through of all the Half-Life 2 episodes because I was following the hunters and gunships better.
TL;DR, sensitivity doesn't do dick for improving my game, console or PC.
LOOK OUT! WITCH!
