Have we talked about Left 4 Dead yet?

Yeah, controls are extremely subjective.  I am really shit at fps games on consoles, so "L4D plays pretty darn well on the console." means jack shit to me, who would still not be able to play it.  Likewise SWM said he is shit at playing it on the KB+mouse, so there's no point in calling him wrong about it, it's just his experience.

Scandanavian War Machine:
exactly.

PC is probably "better" whatever that means, but that does not change the fact that i am dogshit horrible at it.

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.

I'm sorry if this has been answered but a mouse will always be more accurate than a joystick, at least until the upload the movement rate of joysticks a bit
with the current technology joystick sensitivity can be changed, but they still aren't as accurate as mice, mouse sensitivity changes the rate at which it moves, a higher joystick sensitivity makes it move at higher increments causing it to be less accurate and have larger deadspots

sorry to bust your bubble bud, but it's not just a preference it's technology

Yeah, because having a higher DPI on your mouse matters more than skill.  It must be true, I read it on the side of a gaming mouse box!

Snark aside, I think everyone knows the technical details involved.  Some people just prefer to play on X rather than Y because it feels more comfortable for them.
