Mouse is a lot more efficient at medium to long range with unprecedented accuracy. However, at close range the gamepads auto aim kicks in and gives some one a huge advantage.

Same. Close up and medium or driving its all about the Game pad.


Open maps or sniping MOUSE.

But I'm always kinda using the gamepad since my headset uses its built in Sound card.

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 find it too hard to use gamepad. Auto-aim sometimes happens, sometimes doesn't, which makes aiming much harder. Especially with shotguns I find myself struggling against the auto-aim.

I Use a G5. some people can't get used to the twitch and no smoothing but after practice it upped my game considerably. I also use a g15 but Kb's don't matter a whole bunch.

I get alot of good skilled kills with the Mouse/Keyboard, but when it comes to like, Slayer BR starts, anyone using a gamepad dominates.

Personally, if you're using a gamepad, then go play H2X. We dont want you here.

Well aren't you just special. You want a cookie. I can play my game with whatever device I want to. I chose to use the gamepad as that is the way I have always played games since video games came out (Atari anyone?). If you don't like it, then tough titties.

Uh yeah, speak for yourself. I have nothing against people who want to use their favorite controls.

I know to find a gamepad in a store just which one because I can't find one

Xbox 360 Controller. For wired, either the Xbox or Windows packaging will work. For wireless, only the Windows version will work out of the box.

Gamepads can help me keep my lead in Halo 1 when it's constant. Otherwise, mouse helps me make quick adjustments. But I can play fine without autoaim.
