Heyyo,

Geez, I knew the guys working in Bungie sucks at video games, but after hearing your story, I believe this fact even furthur. xD
Err... well, they don't "suck" cause they did create the gaming phenomenon that is "Halo" and "Marathon" afterall. And you guys, autoaim's been in PC shooters since the get-go. If you guys were around for when Doom and such started up? they had autoaim, mainly autoaim for above and below the aiming reticle cause it was too hard to do it just via keyboard all the time, but it was there. Half Life 1 engine for PC had auto aim as well, but gamepad/joystick only, and it wasn't overdone. Halo1Xbox, I say, has really good autoaim, but maybe a bit too much strong cause sometimes it does feel like the game is aiming for you.
I don't see why you guys are getting too overworked by it. The only thing we should worry about is if it's overdone. If the autoaim's like Halo2Xbox? then yes, we are being screwed. If not? then it should prove to be a great game balance so both K&M users can battle gamepad users and it be a fun match.
.... the only other thing I'm worried about is if we'd have to pay-to-play H2V to use Live to play games.... if so screw it, might not bother with the multiplayer side of things....... plenty of other shooters coming out for that too.
