KZ2 would have been better on 360

So I just got my copy of KZ2 today, and I must say, from the moment I popped in the disc and saw the opening scene...I had to wipe the drool from the floor from the graphical showcase. But, as I began to play from the first stages of the campaign, I noticed something disturbing...the controls, although placed intuitively, felt "loose". Even adjusting the sensitivity, I did not feel like I had precise control of the shooting with the dual axis layout. And the problem wasn't the kickback, it was just moving the dual control that I disliked. I think it probably is more deserving of an 8.5, although I admit to not playing far into the campaign and not yet touching the multiplayer...but I think this game could have been great with a 360 controller.

I find the controls the best of any console in fact I am currently general online and have achieved all the rankings and the campaign is amazing.

It wouldn't be possible on 360 plain and simple 360 is just not powerful enough.

you didnt have precise shooting because there's no autoaim in killzone 2. ;p

first off killzone 2 doesnt even look that good in the beggining, the graphics dont get shown off until halfway through the game really, and the controls are easily adjusted to and work great for the normal average gamer.

Yes it does have auto aim. It has it bad. Its soo bad that next patch they are removing it or tweaking it.

The controller thing is a matter of opinion. I hate the 360 controller because it hurts my left thumb in FPS. The ps3 analog sticks feel really light like they might break but I still prefer them. They are plenty accurate.

I think people are just use to their 360 controller and it's hard to pick up the DS3. I have that trouble at first, but then I get used to the controller and it's fine.

I disagree TC, the PS3 controller is just fine, and you need to factor in no auto aiming as well. Delsage

Like I said. KZ2 has auto aim. Probably the worst of any fps.

I havent played the game yet since I havent gotten to replace my PS3 yet but I found the PS3 controller pretty confortable but I do have more hands on with that than the 360s, but both controllers feel pretty solid IMO. Killzone 2 is on top of my list of games to get once I do get another PS3.

You'll change your mind, I've seen it happen sooo many times. The KZ2 thread is full of people coming in complaining about the controls and then later on coming back saying "I don't know what happened but now it feels perfect!" :P

Yes it does have auto aim. It has it bad. Its soo bad that next patch they are removing it or tweaking it.

I bought cod4 for the ps3 (I was gold cross on 360 until I sold it for a ps3). After playing KZ2 for so long, I dont like Cod4's controls anymore. It feels like everything is made of styrofoam.

If they didn't have auto-aim in a console FPS then developers fail. If they're going to take out auto-aim, atleast make it a PC game.

I think it's funny that the fanboys are defending the game by saying they removed a feature on purpose .. which is like saying I didn't shoot my toe off on accident; I did it on purpose. So don't laugh!

lol yes it does. Go into the ps3 forums or the killzone forums and search for auto aim. Its so bad they are fixing it next patch.

On second thought, I've realized that's it pretty much impossible that Killzone 2 is playable without auto-aim. Being a PC gamer that likes to experiment, I've played old FPS with controllers through 3rd party software that have NO support for auto-aim ... and it was unpleasant.

I'd be willing to bet that the people here posting that there's no auto-aim haven't played a game without auto-aim in a LONG, LONG time.

the 360 controller really isn't much different from ps3 for shooters, both are terrible for shooter compared to k/m and pc. imprezawrx500

Thats what i've heard from many sources which is why i'm uping my PC to run current title games and see how they do.. first on my list F.E.A.R 2! Havent played with K/M since quake and duke nukem 3D games (FPS that is)

The PS2 controller was terrible for FPS. So, since the PS3's controller is pretty much the same, I can understand the problem.

The biggest problem though was when I played Super Monkey Ball Deluxe on the Xbox, pwned it, then played it on the PS2 and couldn't do very well because my fingers kept slipping off of the smooth surface. Bad design.

As far as consoles go, Xbox 360 controller FTW!!!

Its basically an auto aim exploit. If you tap it fast its like an aim bot. They are fixing next patch. Thank god.

Oh and if someone has a modded controller. Forget about it. They will own.

I wish I could use a 360 controller on the PS3.

halo 3 looks better anyway it's just not drowned in grain filter and motion blur like killzone2. killzone2 engine doesnt have 10 mile draw distance.dfgfgfdgdfg

If you think Halo 3 looks better, you havent played KZ2

i like my ps3 controler over my 360 controller
