Look I pretty much have the /thread right here. I think the main issue at hand here is age. If your like me and your older than 18 then you grew up playing FPS games on the PC with a mouse and keyboard. Then the 360 came out and everyone migrated. All those kids and gamers that didnt join the scene until the 360 came out have no keyboard and mouse experience. For them the keyboard and mouse will be as awkward as a controller was for us. Im sorry that I have a 5 year advantage with my control peripheral than you do, but thats what practice does. 11 years of KBM gaming vs the 3 most xbox live users have on their controllers. Thats the real situation. Not everyone has 11 years of experience (Half of my life if you were curious). I will be trashing Xbox players left and right, but only in the same way I trash PC players left and right. The same bad pc players will be bad on the console. Theres a lot more to it than just aiming. Is there an advantage? Yes! Is it an advantage to everyone? YES, but you have to put in the practice just like everything else in life. The advantage is PC gamers have been doing it for years and xbox live FPS gaming is still fairly new. I know a few controller gamers that are going to compete with me, but they also have put in alot of practice. Its about time spent on your peripheral and preference. Not cheating. The advantage is practice.
Its not cheating. Its a diffrent input method that is more effective once you take the time to master it. PC gamers pretty much got shafted when they took away dedicated servers and started making PC games just Console ports that couldnt be moderated by admins so now hackers run rampant. So if im playing the same game that your playing on your console, but I cant play with any of my friends WHAT GOOD IS IT? This product doesn't automatically make you a god. The same bad pc players will still be bad, and the skill ceiling for console gaming will rise again because a competitive peripheral is available. why would I buy black ops on the pc when nobody plays it on the pc? I use to work at best buy on the night black ops went live, we sold 2 pc copies and sold out of the ps3 xbox360 versions. Developers gave up on PC fps gaming platform and slowly so are its users, this device is no more cheating than your racing wheel for 360. Its just preference. If you think its such an advantage go out and buy one just like you would the racing wheel. Its not like you cant get one yourself. EVERYONE can use it and if your serious about FPS gaming then you should go out and get one and relearn to use a KBM.
