You failed to mention if you have auto-aim enabled? If u do then probably yes, but without it mouse and keyboard poops all over 360 controller, but that my opinion. This topic is never going to end i just don't know why its always brought up.

That explains your name, but unlike you controller guys we don't have to use a screen glitch to win.

Even with auto aim the keyboard and mouse will still kick the controller in the azz!

You know you can use 360 controllers with Vista right? So with Halo2PC just stick with what you're best at.

I used to think controllers were far more accurate, but once you've gone mouse + keyboard, there's no going back. It's just so much better; it makes controllers look like clumsy stone age tools. As an example, think of how easily you can navigate a cursor/cross hair with a mouse across a computer screen, and how fast and accurate it can be in the right hands. Now think of the cumbersome movement of using two thumbs to position the cross hair to the desired position.

It's a win win situation for the mouse + keyboard, hands down.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

I can do fine in Halo with a 360 controller. It depends on how good you are with the controller.

I started playing Halo on the XBOX and then I got it for PC. I just find that I do better with the controller.

Now, when it comes to games like CSS and Raven Shield, Mouse/Keyboard all the way.

Man, I cant wait to face people on H2V who use 360 controllers. Its like enabling a handicap setting whenever you use one.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

I know some people excel with a gamepad. I use both (never used an actual 360 controller though).

If you're a n00b a controller maybe a better choice.... Look what happened when Dreamcast players could play Quake 3 Arena with Pc-gamers. The Pc-gamers obliterated the Dreamcast players with ease!!!! You can't get the accuracy and response of a mouse & keyboard with a controller. Though I prefer to controll vehicles whith a controller.
Ofcourse an experienced handcontroll player will own a beginner with mouse & keyboard and vice versa! Things will clear out after the H2V-release and let peolpe make their own decisions of what they like best...

Cheers!

Thank you.

To be fair, it's really a matter of preference. Yes, the mouse and keyboard may be the better tool, but if you are fine with using a controller and are good with it, by all means use it. Just remember that it handicaps you in some ways that mice and keyboards wouldn't.

u could 1v1 a hacker and still kick thier ass. have mercy on the little controller users.
Ha, when you think about it, auto-aim is somewhat of a toned down version of an aimbot. That's what they'd need to contend with the mouse and keyboard.
