Sorry Sony, you just weren't meant for FPS.

KZ2 is one of the best FPS's this gen. And the whole PS controller sucking is BS imo, the controller works with ANY genre, the 360 pad is way more limited cause of that horrid Dpad.

Resistance and KZ are solid titles but they're nothing ground breaking. I wish Sony would focus more on what traditionally made them the best console the last two gens. The community isn't there, the controller is awful for it, and your exclusive FPS doesn't compare to the competition. Sony should stick to the games that made their platform recognized instead of trying to imitate the next Halo.Hexagon_777

Was Sony really not meant to be? Supposed to be? Have they lost it? All those memories so close to me...They just fade away. All this time Sony was pretending, so much for their happy ending.

its all on the user i have no problems playing fps games on the ps3 i prefer the ps3 controler over the xbox360 controler (never been a fan of triggers) i enjoy using R1 to shoot(what i dont like is those mulit plat companys that do such a

to say the ps3 is ment to have fps just cause of controler is bs

i can understand people saying resistance 2 is a halo rip off but that has noting to do with the ps3 system or the controler

all that means is ur not a fan of the fps exclusive games that came out on the ps3

am a gamer and i can play fps on both xbox360(cod 4) and ps3 (killzone 2, resistance 2)

i will admit there was no fps worth playing on the ps2 the system could not handle fps like the xbox could but ps3 can handle fps just as good as xbox360

the problem with the cotroler is people are used to only playing fps on xbox360 so when they try one on the ps3 it dont feel right

i could remember when i felt tha way for any game on the xbox it took nba 2k games for me to get used to the xbox controler

i had no problem getting used to the xbox 360 controler since they use the SAME BUTTON LAYOUT THAT THE PS3 HAS other than the analog layout and lack of true trigger buttons

when i play games on each system i just think of button layout(location) rather than the actual button name( Y same as triangle)

[QUOTE="fourseamer4"][QUOTE="WadeFan"]Theyve been a great platformer/adventure company. But their controller is far from horrible for FPS's. I mean seriously, its got a trigger on itfedor19820

thats what happens when ur used to playing fps on xbox360 only

i can play fps i mean i can play ANY GAME on both systems ps3 is better because of digi pad and people will say xbox controler is better because of triggers

as far as analog layout it depends on the user as far what they think is better

when i use the ps3 i can use my both my index and middle fingers to control all L1,L2,R1,R2 when i use the xbox 360 i cant and i have use only my index fingers to control LB,RB,LT,RT so i feel more control on the ps3 but thats just me and it all comes down to the user

They're both really great games, that's all I care about.

Someone must not have played any PC shooters if he believes 360's FPSs resembles anything close to being the standard.

PC shooters are a thing of the past. Playing 4 players with your friends in Halo 3 online or Call of Duty 4 over Xbox Live is the new hotness.

Killzone 2 is a far better game than Halo 3. So your argument is seriously flawed.

Come back with that statement when Killzone 2 gets local splitscreen multiplayer.

I really liked KZ2 for the single player, altho it felt pretty small content wise with no split screen and very few MP maps

but yea i thought R2 sucked, i kinda hope they kill that series cuz i definitely wont be picking upthe the 3rd one

You are the third person to have hinted at Resistance 3. Has it been announced already or something?

no i was just sayingi like insomniac but i hated R2 and would like to see them work on something else

but yei think theres a good chance they might make a Resistance 3

I'm of the mind Sony should do whatever the hell they want. It seems that I'm going to be right on this one.

R2 was a bad Halo knockoff. I liked the first, but R2 really tried to be a Halo.bronxxbombers

imo R1 was a complete joke and R2 was fantastic. i dont see how it tried to be halo. a game doesnt have to be ground breaking to be fun. kz2 and R2 are fantastic.

There hasn't been a groundbreaking FPS since Halo CE, and even some would argue over that.

Sure there have been great ones building off of the gameplay found in others, but nothing groundbreaking.

DS bad for FPS is BS!

Lol you n00bs, you're just used to the XBox controller from your Halo days, that's all. I've never had a problem with the DS for FPS's.

True, the Nintendo DS is great for FPS games. It's certainly more accurate for me.

I definitely agree that Sony should focus more on what they are best at, and thats not FPS's. We need to see some more quirky Japanese stuff from them in my opinion. SCEJ really need to step up their game and let SCEA take a back seat for a while.

On a more positive note, the FPS's that Sony have been pushing so far have been solid. Nothing groundbreaking, but still solid AAA games. I'd rather take that then nothing.

The silly things I read here know no bounds. Just because an Xbox controller is mildly better does not make the PS controller horrible by any standards. Besides most successful ventures (Halo) are going to be copied by the rest of the industry, that's business 101. People try too hard to paint the competition in a negative light, yet still fail miserably. It's pretty sad.

Both games campaigns wernt great but with R1 there was nothing to compare it with on the ps3.

Online though I loved the insanity of R1. The cathdral map was just completely crazy. In the cathedral map you could be in that 3 storey building shooting the other team on the roof and grenades and grendade launchers were going off everywhere, people flying when blown up, it was carnage and brilliant.

Then you and 10 others would charge down on the enemy team throwing hedgehog grenades. it wasbrillaint fun.

But in R2 they try to control it, restrain it which just goes against the only thing R1 had for me...

The 8 player co-op is good though.

Theyve been a great platformer/adventure company. But their controller is far from horrible for FPS's. I mean seriously, its got a trigger on itWadeFan

the only thing i liked about Resistance was the action. the story sucked and the graphics werent anything to write home about either....

im sorry let me rephrase that, nathan hale just sucked as a main character. what is it with companies making the main character with absolutely NO personality whatsoever?

Millions of gamers, as well as credible reviewers, would respectfully disagree with you.

But what do we know, after all you did post in SW so it must be true.

Yes, more rpgs, though Insomniac and Guerilla Games probably wanted to make fps games because it's a hell of a lot easier than coming up with something original and you have a better chance of getting money from titles like that.

u must be an xbox fanboy there is nothing wrong with L2,R2 i would not even call them triggers

and if u actually played fps games made by sony or made by a company that put some effort on the port u would know that the good ones use R1 to shoot so u dont have to worry about ur so called worst design for a trigger

i can understand people not being used to the ps3 controlers but thats not a reason to say the xbox controller is better i remember how much i hated the original xbox controller the second controller that was released was better but still didnt like it it was when i was getting my nba 2k games for xbox when i finally got used to xbox controller and the xbox360 was easy for me to pick up cause they used the same button (not analog) layout as the ps2 controller all the ps3 did was take the trigger idea but they were never planing on making the triggers a primary button for shooters like xbox does

to all on this thread there is nothing wrong with the ps3 controllers so if cant use them just stick to ur xbox360

My 20 hours this weekend on Killzone 2 disagrees with you. Not only were my fingers not sore, but i didn't get bored like i did with Halo 3. and yes i have played Halo 3 (check my gamertag)

i have no probleam using the ps3 for fps, in fact for me is the opposite, x360 was'nt meant for me to play fps

and if u leamings don;t like then stick with your halo

I enjoy KZ2 far more than COD4, and much much more than Halo 3....I also can go back and fourth with the 360 controller and Sixaxis with no problem....is there something wrong with me? :(

I can do it as well, but I just don't like the control for shooters ;P

lol yeah the disease is called "gamer"

symptoms:

not whining about which system is better

not a fanboy

and always playing good games on both systems

Single player (i don't play MP) both Resistance and Killzone were 100x better than Halo 3, not to mention how much better they look and sound than it. The only FPS that's their peer on current gen consoles IMO is COD.
