Watch them trying to play the game with a controller :lol: I love the original game but what's the point of making a mouseless port?

Dont be so mean. The guy landed a shot a couple of times. :P

Making money?

I played like that when I was 8.

EDIT: I should stop insulting my 8 year old self. What I meant to say is: "I'll probably play like that if I get lobotomized by a machete."

Well,you couldn´t be expecting great accuracy with an inferior input device for these sort of games.

I'd have thought all the PC gamers would be playing Quake Live.

Or Quake III which doesn't have a controller input I think.

The learning curve of pad controllers are way shorter than from mouse & keyboard, plus most of shooters in console had autoaim, so there's always less skill involved in consoles.

This is the only player I known (jook) that plays with controller in a similar grade of skill as a k+m pro:

But is an exception o a well established rule.

Wasn't that bad but I lol'd when he started spraying the lightning gun like it was the proton pack from Ghost Busters. :P But yeah, Quake + controller = No.

What does it matter to you i'f hes playing with a controller :? Is your experience being hindered ?Sp4rtan_3

Well the player's experience certainly is, since he's playing a twitch-shooter using a slow and innaccurate controller.
It's sort of like playing GT5 with a d-pad - sure, you can steer...just. :P

True, that's actually pretty good, although he still has to stand perfectly still to aim with a shock rifle, which probably wouldn't work at all on the PC.

That's so awful it looks like me when I first played Quake ... when I was 9 ... and had little experience with a mouse ... fail

Sadly, Q3's been on quite a few consoles.

Sadly? What the hell? More people get to enjoy the game, you should be happy.

I need to go back and play Quake 3 Dreamcast.

I remember loving that and it working well.

I think whats worse is its on XBLA, which means you'd have to buy it. Which is... something we've had on PC for free...

I think. I saw people talking about Quake Live, so I just assumed >_>

UT for me as well quake was all ways inferior in my opinion to the unreal franchise.

[QUOTE="hypoty"]

[QUOTE="Skittles_McGee"] Yeah. That was just to cover myself in case I was wrong :P I don't really play Quake. Always liked Unreal Tournament better. ...should I run now?WilliamRLBaker

Running won't help you.

Twitch shooters in general are pretty bad with the exception of ut2k4.

I hate crybaby pcgamers...srs...i do. now run off and tell a moderator that I posted this so it can get deleted, i can get points deducted and you can go on bashing everything console..but still...please for the sake of all pc gamers...shut up, you give your "crew" a bad rep.

I have played many UT games..Im sorry, but UT3 is the exact same game as all the other ones I have played.With the exception of Championship which absolutely blew to high heaven.I have UT3 for PS3 and its great..one of the best games out as far as im concerned.

When I see people bash UT3 it makes me think of people bashing movies that are the same like the new Star Wars movies..Transformers 2, ect ect..Great movies...all with stories leading up to the next in the series...why bash?? Poeple just complain cause its easier then liking sometimes..

This a joke, right? Have any of you played Unreal Tournament 3 on the consoles? Games like this work fine on consoles, just because you saw a video where some guy sucked at the game doesn't mean this kind of game doesn't work on consoles.

Yeah Quake 3 is bad on the gamepad. But I remember a time when Quake 3 Revolution on the PS2 looked really cool to me and I was phantasising of Quake 3 on the N64 :P

Most have a good enough PC for Quake Live, so rather play that if you can.

Quake 3 on the DC supported online play and mouse and keyboard, though.

Not bad.

But anyone have gameplay of someone playing DMC4 with mouse and keyboard? thats even more lulzy.

Doesn't look bad to me, maybe it's just the player.

Consolites..

One minute they're compairing DS to the 360 controller and sub HD gfx and the next, they're all over PC gamers for being "elitist" about their "slightly" superior graphics and "slightly" superior controls..

Oh the double standards......

Controllers will always put a cap on how well you can play an FPS. You could never play like this guy with a controller. It's not possible to be so accurate and quick. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPfaQJuWGvU
