[Poll] GTA has a free aiming reticle. (Why perfer one controller over another?)

So what I don't understand in how everyone thinks that the 360 remote will automaticly suck.

GTA will feature a controlls simular to that of a third person shooter. As many gamers know by now, the 360 excels in first/third person shooter (I.E. GEow, Saint's Row).

I don't understand why PS3/360 owner would wright off the 360 version just becase of the controller.

if a controller makes or breaks a the game for you then so be it, because it wont for melinkin_guy109

people are saying it will suck because of the heavy dpad use that gta uses, you use it to change your weapon and to a lesser extant change the radio stations, atleast htats how it was done in preavious games, they always have used the dpads in gta games, and it doesnt take a genious to tell you that the 360s dpad on the controler isnt perfect, atleast thats how i would look at it, the game will be the exact same in every front and if a controller makes or breaks athe game for you then so be it, because it wont for melinkin_guy109

I really like Socom2/3 and The Getaway: Black Monday, I cant wait for their sequals but I just don't understand why everyone thinks the 360's controller cant handle the job. Shattered007

id answer by saying its mostly a form of damage control

its the cow way of damage controlling the fact that they,

Wont have the Exclusive content

Wont get Rumble (unless they got milked and paid for the DS3)

Wont get achievements

will have to play with a controller thats not suitable for free aim (stick to your jprgs cows)

Will probably have bad framerate (the reason Rockstar showcases the 360 version)

and if the game has online MP, theyll have to play it through that Pathetic excuse of an online service called PSN

Um...I might have to own both :)

I would rather see people just say I prefer the Sixaxis for GTA instead of reaching for an excuse.

You are right in that the arguments will mostly just be people making rationalizations.

shooting done with the 360's analogs, driving hopefully done with the 360's triggers that would be a dream to play in my mind i certainly dont see why the sixaxis is any better for a gta title last gen sure but the 360 controller is fanatastic it seems very well suited to a game involving third person camera/driving/shooting etc etc

the dpad doesnt have to be great...but like i said in my earlier post, it seems like a form of damage control

You use the L2 and R2 buttons to change weapons in previous GTA's dude!

Changing weapons on the 360 D-Pad is no problem,

executing a Dragon Punch on Streetfighter is a different story.

Bingo. 360 users will have everything available when the game is available, while PS3 owners would most likely have to wait till Home comes out with trophies and accomplisments which who knows if thats going to be any good, they have to wait till DS3 are at retailers or they have to import it, and most likely they'll have a 5 gig install once again. And oh don't forget about headsets. Every 360 is guaranteed to have one, while who knows if PS3 users will have one, they'll just be running around not playing the game properly with the multiplayer.

I don't understand why PS3/360 owner would wright off the 360 version just becase of the controller.

They could write off the 360 version because of the console's ability to suddenly stop working

lets face it 360 owners just have better military coordination skills.p2rus

That just may be true, for the placement for the analog sticks just feels perfect in shooting games. It just feels better when you are trying to move turn and shoot at the same time.

I'll wait for the eventual PC port so that I can nail headshots left and right with the help of a mouse, not to mention mods and other neat goodies.NamelessPlayer

Definitely like the mods but I probably won't be able to wait out the PC version :P
