I felt the same way after going back to counter strike after 5 years of playing only console shooters


i imagine so. is there any decent way of getting M + KB to work on the 360?

Splitfish I think it's called? It's a mouse for the 360.

That's only for the PS3 unfortunately. I tried one called the Xfrag for the 360, but it was -nothing- like a mouse and had a terrible deadzone.

lol they don't sell mouses/keyboards for obvious reasons;

the games are designed for controllers (auto-aim - magnetism etc)

That's why PC shooters take infinitely more skill than console shooters. You're not restricted by the speed of your thumbstick, and there's no auto aim.

It's actually infinitely more precise and accurate, go watch stuff like Quake 2 pro matches and marvel at how stupidly fast and precise people are.

However having not played PC shooters pretty much since the FPS genre was invented, I am a controller boy through and through now.

Ha. Yeah those things look terrible.

Try lowering your sensitivity until you get accustomed to the controller then move it up. You really don't want to play on anything less than three. That should be your goal.

The game just isn't that fun on anything lower than 3.

I play on 2... I have fun. I don't understand how you think sensitivity deems how fun the game is

I prefer Controller, mainly for simplicity. Plus I can play more comfortably whilst in bed.

Aim isn't everything. Nice attempt at trollolololing people who don't play PC games though.
