controllers and aiming on consoles

what do you guys think should be implemented in the next gen consoles to improve aiming? do you think Move and Wiimote are the best solution or what?

the mouse is best when it comes to aiming, but for console gaming I don't think it's a good solution, for obvious reasons. so what say you?

Future of FPS games.

I will say that I've been told the wii has the best setup for fps games. Now that I've bought the PSMove, I disagree. Mainly because it just isn't relaxing holding your hands out in such a fashion--very much so in the same way your hand can cramp up on a keyboard. There's a reason the controller is so popular and has been remained a staple in gaming--IT IS COMFORTABLE. I think the wiiu pad looks interesting. No doubt about it, it potentially opens up new gameplay experiences.

Personally think its fine the way it is.

Only people that really seem to bother are hermits to be brutally honest, Controllers do their job fine and get you by in any FPS out on a console so why change it.

Controllers are fine.

I think console shooters need to evolve and stop copying PC shooters. Then the light guns can come into play once again.

The same thing they have right now. Overly large hitboxes and aim assist.

Controller accuracy isn't that big an issue because the game helps you aim. This is more noticeable in some games than others, but almost every console game does this. A more accurate control method would simply mean less aim assist needs to be applied, so the added accuracy on a technical level would be negated by your perception that your accuracy has not been dramatically improved. The success of Kinect--which if anything is less accurate than competing motion controllers--demonstrates that accuracy is not a necessary goal of motion controls.

No motion controller can be as accurate as a mouse because they all rely on sensors that give a vague idea of where the controller is pointing or its current location and rotation in 3D space (hence the introduction of aids like the Wii MotionPlus); the game then fills in the blanks with guesswork and aim assist. The mouse does the complete opposite, trasmitting straight X-Y coordinates that tell the game exactly where it is and how far it has moved, no guesswork involved. Physically picking up and replacing the mouse is not detected (since it is not a motion controller) but all movements made while maintaining surface contact are replicated with pixel-perfect accuracy. The flat operating surface also negates any inaccuracy in the user's own coordination (your hand might wobble noticeably when you hold a controller, but this variance doesn't affect the mouse).

Personally think its fine the way it is.

I turn off the aim assists and do just fine. They do it to make it more accessible for people that don't normally play fps, or those that feel the need to boost stats.

If they gave people the option between mouse, motion controller, and Controller I think people would pick the mouse for FPS

Controlers are fine considering everyone is using one as well.... but it encurages people who suck to camp :D Some hate them though, but I think they are just not used to them.

motion controls are just better than joypads for fps's, it gives that realistic feeling. and come on, aiming with an analog stick is so bad.

cant turn that off man.Except if the game is Cod.

Controllers are fine i put the sensitivity up which makes it strangely to a hermit more responsive oh the horror.Its like a kb and m you can make it as sensitive or as slow as you like.
