Damnhippies50 Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 this is a continuation of a previous poll that was closed. To recap: console FPS=evil, PC FPS=super FREAKIN' AWESOME. Along with other random stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damnhippies50 Posted July 19, 2005 Author Share Posted July 19, 2005 wow i am bored. blah. anyways, i find console shooter targeting to be impercise and less accurate than a mouse and keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yst Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I voted for the nonsense option I favour the mouse and keyboard, certainly, and have an extremely precise, refined set of mouse and keyboard controls which I've honed over many years for absolute maximum possible twitch speed (I use ASDF control rather than WASD or ESDF and frequently bind auxilliary mouse buttons as well as ASDF to directionals for rather arcane control speed optimisation reasons). But even so, I believe that there's enough to what makes an FPS that less than ideal controls are far from the be-all and end-all of FPS gaming, and a console FPS may well prove itself a worthy experience even played with a gamepad.

Reveilled Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 PC Shooters suck. In fact, all shooters suck except for Goldeneye and Perfect Dark 1, both of which were on the N64. Of course, that's because everything sucks when it's not on a Nintendo. Hawk! Eggplant! AWAKEN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanschu Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Which means a stunning absence of FPSs in general Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostofAnakin Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Never played one. So I can't say whether they suck or not.

Petay Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 (edited) PC Shooters suck. In fact, all shooters suck except for Goldeneye and Perfect Dark 1, both of which were on the N64. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Bit of a bold statement right there, since there is a helluva lot more FPS's on PC than consoles i think, but its your opinion. I prefer PC shooters to console ones now really, ive realised how much easier it is to control and aim with a mouse and keyboard than a gamepad i find.

Musopticon? Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 Shooter on consoles can work. If one can get over the gamepad controls and the need of autoaim, they can be very enjoyable. I've always tried to take console shooters as an experience and not grasp at the little things. Nitpicking just kills the gameplay and immersion. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.
