Shooters for PS3

This is morea question for allplatforms that don't use mouse.

How difficult is for you to aim in a shooter in the diferent games? One of the 1st shooter games i played for PS3 was Resistance and i found it very hard to aim and shoot and move at the same time, i couldn't play in the hardest mode. What about you, what do you think?

I find that shooters on PS3 suffer because of the controller. It just doesn't work well for shooters.

I share your opinion Grilled, FPS are meant to be played with a mouse. If not, why are so many expensive mouse, for PC Gaming, sure isn't for WoW or World in Conflict type of games.

na i like my PS3 DS3 and it find it easy to use while playing FPS, also its comfortable to use...

for me there is no problem in using a controller. sure you can aim faster and hit running enemies faster but no big problem:)

It's alot easier for me to use the PS3 controller rather then a mouse and keyboard. I do love the feel of using the Wiimorw and Nunchuck for FPS games as well.

If you make a competition between controler and mouse, i think the mouse will win in any FPS game.

because they started out on pc, the ps controller never was too great for fps games, its mainly common knowledge at this point. one thing i can give xbox is that its made for fps games, anything else? no, but thats why the leftanalogis moved up.

The PS3 controller is fine, maybe you just need more practice. A mouse and keyboard can play the fastest,

i guess that's just that, i'll practise more and then we'll talk

I find it easy to play shooters on the Dual shock 3. Especially Killzone 2. I am guessing it takes getting used to if you are a PC gamer.

After almost 2 years of absence in PC FPS, I actually found myself not used to using the mouse anymore. lol

It takes time. Most of my games are on consoles and I'm used to having analog sticks. Time fixes everything.

It doesn't seem that difficult for me anymore. I've been playing shooters since N64 for consoles. I only started using the mouse aim in PC FPS games around 2002 (was used to the old school Doom arrows and crtl only keys)

I kind of treat it like a M/K. Only left analog is my movement. Right analog is my "mouse" for looking/camera and (usually) R1 is my left click "Fire" button. Treat it the same way, only your confined to a smaller piece of plastic. Though it's not good for "surgical" accurate shots. You can get pretty close.

Mouse + keyboard will allways be better than a controller but when you get used to a controller it works really great, i have no complaints.

I have never really played any game on a PC, so to me its very easy to play FPS on a console.

360 is my preferred console and I find it to be great with FPS games due to the offset analog sticks, there is a similar controller for the PS3, its off brand but is the best controller for the PS3, its called the Shadow. I boughtthe Shadow at Best Buy, it is wireless and has offset analog sicks and is bigger than that tiny Six-axis.

Actually i agree with you, although i have XBOX and notXBOX360 the controllers are similar. It seems easier to play FPS with XBOX controller than with PS2/PS3 ones. I play and old XBOX game MOH and it worked really well, the PS3 controllers...well, i'll just have to get used to them

I love my PS3, but I much prefer shooters on the 360. I just think the controller feels tighter. I think it's the trigger buttons. They feel more stable for some reason.

I only have 1 shooter on the PS3 though, so it's not a huge problem.

If for any reason i do not adapt to the PS3 controller for shooters, is there any way of playing PS3 with a keyboard and mouse? There is an USB entrance, maybe it will work i don't know.

Guys...an answer please. Thank you

i cnt even use a mouse and keyboard well lol. I'm too used to controller. But a mouse and keyboard does give you insane advantages.
