What's on your mind?

Those weren't my exact words in case you're thinking I could be so polite to the person who was partly responsible for my first bout with clinical depression.

gguuhhhhhhh.........

You're just lucky you aren't getting me in my prime. When my sight was better beating me in a shooter was nigh on impossible.

Arent you a baby now??? Was your prime when you were age 3?

[RelentlessOblivion]

Nah 18-20 was me at my best. Particularly at Halo I was untouchable. Now my brilliance is limited to fighters and destroying the AI in racing games.

I always hated halo, i was terrible at manual aiming, to the point I would be in a gun battle with my opponent and next thing I know I am shooting at God know's what in the sky...

[RelentlessOblivion]

I was the opposite, using the reticle in Halo to aim manually is much easier then in COD. I can still occasionally put on a show but more often then not these days Halo sends me into controller throwing fits of rage.

My funniest gamerage incident involved a string of Anchorman, Dodgeball and Monty Python quotes being shouted (whilst wearing my headset so everyone could hear me) the distraction factor was sufficient to get me back into the game though: apparently it is difficult to play Gears Of War while rolling on the floor laughing.

Playing any shooter using joypad is difficult and imho not enjoyable. The only one which wasn't frustrating for me was GTA V, but it's not a real shooter, rather something like "no need to point, just shoot a lot". Because of playing Quake 3 a lot (I've spent over 7000hrs in-game, but I've quit years ago) every console controller seems to be fucking unprecise and slow. For anyone who want to argue with it, I propose a duel in any PC online shooter you choose. It's easy to set a controller to work properly. It would be a short one...

Configuring a keyboard with the various prompts required to shoot, switch weapons, use equipment, throw grenades, move, change direction, aim down the sight of your weapon etc would just be confusing. Having an actual control with a clear layout makes things so much easier. For example in Halo the right trigger shoots, left trigger throws grenades, right bumper reloads, left bumper changes between grenades, Y changes and picks up weapons, A jumps, B melees, X deploys equipment, right analogue stick changes direction, pressing the right analogue stick aims down the scope, left analogue stick moves, pressing the left analogue stick crouches. You can overcome any issues by adjusting the sensitivity in-game (I used to run at a 7 for look sensitivity in Halo 3 but now run at a 3). I've been a console gamer all my life and barring emulators for GB games and the odd flash game like Pandemic 2 see no point in playing video games on PC.

Uggghhhh....I've been sick as a dog the last two days. My Norwegian countrymen came to Nashville and wore me out (they crashed too thankfully). No music the last two days but today I've got the turntable going all day with football on mute. Should be glorious...

Hey, but this works really similar in PC games, most of them have nearly the same controls that you're familiar with. Not only one series, but the whole FPS genre. Little differences are easier to change (or maybe backwards - usually impossible to do on console) and a precision of keyboard/mouse set is totally different world. Yeah, there are some cons. Good pc control set cost is equal to about 3 joypads. Impossible to play in horizontal position. You need comfortable height of a thing under your wrist, and some free space to put a mousepad on it. But when you confront with a guy with a pad in hand... it's like kickboxing with quadruple amputee. But don't think I'm a PC-warrior or what. I have my good old PS3 and prefer to play on it, but mostly platformers, car racing, beat 'em ups and a few more... unfortunately skilling myself in a hardcore playing just changed my pov forever. I just can't stand the situation when game helps me, just takes me by the hand from location to location, because I feel then like a retard. Don't know how Rockstar did it that good in gta v. But when I finished it, the game I've tried to sunk in was Bulletstorm and I felt retarded or treated like a little child for the whole time. Game is easy, much easier than PC version and reasons of that are obvious.

Fucking awesome Deathstorm' date=' But could you work in a little something about strawberries?[/quote']no problem I will try

[deathstorm]

Murph and mindy you two whould be destroyed by me in army of two you guys should lighted up by me In over kill mode

[deathstorm]

The first uncharted game. Was in a pain in the ass. You use your wireless controller to aim the the grenades. And stuff. In uncharted 2 it was easier Same with uncharted 3. Can't wait for uncharted 4

It's basically me in a flannel shirt, but there was also a hat that went with it that I wasn't wearing at the time, it made my head sweaty within minutes. Winter was adorable though.

PC gaming is best gaming. The precision afforded to you by the mouse/keyboard combo is spectacular. Plus my favorite games are PC exclusive. Not to mention modding.
