District looks sweet as Pie filled with Cake batter covered in glaze.

And controllers Phail, take away aim-assist and you can't hit squat in an FPS unless your some Controller N1nj4.

Some of them do exist, but usually that's out of pure preference rather than them not knowing any better.

I only like controllers for non-Shooter games.
I think we need to list which controllers are best and how they are all still less then Keyboard and mouse.
I personally think in the current console war for controller
Innovativeness
Wiimote>360 controller>PS3 controller
Shooters
360 controller>Wiimote>PS3 controller
Actually I can't think of any genre where the PS3 remote is superior to the 360 controller or wiimote.
But still
Mouse+Keyboard>All controllers
I can't wait to try some of the new maps, all I need to do is figure out how to do Blender so I can make some cool weapons.
P.S. Blender is a free modeling program that can import and export 3d Studio models.
*I wonder what everyone else thinks or if I'll be flamed by console fanboys about how I'm wrong*

He means if you put together two player of the exact same skill the keyboard/mouse user has an advantage because it is easier to aim with a mouse. Your using your whole arm to aim instead of just your thumb. Its easier to move your arm with subtle movements then your thumb.
i find it easier and more pecise to use a MICROSOFT (no generic) 360 controller

That's because there's auto aim with controllers.

Indeed, some do ex1st. I believe they were created by Durandal just to spite us keyboard and mouse users.

And games that don't include (MMO)RPGs, or RTS in them. Besides that, platformers and sports titles are where game pads can really shine.

But that just shows that there's something inferior with controllers which makes games give them auto-aim...

If you wish to use a game pad, by all means, do so. With anything besidesa first-person shooter, RTS, or (MMO)RPG. That just leaves platformers and sports games.

I'd never use a controller for an FPS, but they help a lot when used with the keyboard in a flight sim.

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

I hope Bungie ports these maps to Halo 2 or Halo 3 sometime in the future.

"Veni, Vidi, Vici" = "I came, I saw, I conquered" Julius Caesar

the reason everyone here believes (thinks, has an opinion that, whatever you want to read) that keyboard+mouse > controller cause you are more of a pc gamer and dont have the feel for a controller in your hand its unfamiliar or not as familiar to you as your keyboard+mouse I have Halo PC played online with my 360 controller loved it no problems I was faster and aware of the button placement and what works for me doesnt have to work for you.
TRUE EXAMPLE my dad prefers the Keyboard+mouse for everything its hard for him to map a controller thus makin it hard for him to play xbox and same for me with the pc
(and Halo 1 xbox didnt have auto aim) but like Kim said before and I said before preference and yes i can pull off a headshot no prob

I've played Halo for PC from day one and I must say as stated above it is more precise but sometimes too precise. a slight quiver of the mouse can knock off your aim. but it looks sweet getting head-shot after head-shot with a rifle.

Well, it's common sense. I mean, put an F-16 pilot into a Spitfire; of course he's not going to be able to use it and vice versa (of course, the F-16 is kb+m and the Spitfire is the controller).

Also, Halo 1 Xbox did have auto aim.
