All depends on what type of games you're playing. I prefer most FPS on PC's over consoles. But I'm pretty good on xbox with Rainbow Six: 3.

i cant stand trying to strafe and aim with a controller, im horrible at it... well, im horrible at halo too on a pc, soo lol

Nah, it's easy with the new controllers.

Man, I haven't played Rainbow Six or Pandora Tomorrow in a while, I should hook them up again.

Really you can't beat keyboard and mouse in any aspect of the game. In general targeting and movement becomes so much easier and more defined. I'm personally not great with analog controllers.

I guess like anything you get used to it in time. The new dual analog controllers make it easier then the old style controllers. I agree that a FPS is better on a keyboard and mouse, but after playing games like Medal of Honor, Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon, and Halo I'm pretty used to a controller setup too.

I don't know I tend to prefer the analog controller of a console system to having to use a mouse and a keyboard. I just find having to use the 2 together to be annoying.

The only thing I found annoying was switching to using ASWD to move around over the arrow keys. But I'm really used to it now and it makes it so much easier to hit spacebar to jump or shift to duck.

The more you use it the more you get used to it.

Yeah maybe that's my problem I just don't play enough computer games.

my friend using arrow keys for movement... he has the most wacked out game playing setup i have ever seen, i HATE when he changes em around, cause then when i get on im all screwed up, haha
