Do you use the Xbox 360 gamepad, or KB/M?

Post » Thu Dec 25, 2008 10:18 pm

Just wondering if anyone else uses a gamepad to play this game. I use it most of the time simply for the precise movement control. That's the one thing I dislike about PC gaming (and I'm a PC gamer), the one-speed movement of WASD, with maybe a slower walk speed (in some games).
I don't want this to turn into a flame war about what controls are better, I'm just curious what people use. And before you say that a mouse is much easier to aim with/more accurate, that's true, but I've been owning a lot with my gamepad, so it's not always about more precise controls. :)

No self respecting pc gamer would choose a xbox controller over a keyboard and mouse.

1000000000000000000000% 360 controller for me. i like the graphics of the pc(not this game) and link to my hdtv through a hdmi cable kick back and enjoy great graphics (normally) and use a 360 controller so i dont have to sit 2" from a monitor/tv and hover a kb/mouse......just my choice everyone has theyre own.

Another other than a mouse is putting yourself at a disadvantage.

I do. Again, not all the time, but for Crysis 2 I seem to prefer it. Maybe because it's a console game (lol kidding)

Yeah, I like to sit back, in a relaxed position, not hunched over my keyboard and mouse.

And yet I'm still winning a lot. Just think how much better I'd be if I used KB/M all the time lol.

A controller is fine for relaxing on the couch. Sadly I haven't been in a comfortable position while gaming since the Gamecube! KB & Mouse is for straight up competition! ... and also for people who don't have a gamepad.... like me. x)
OOOoooo I miss relaxing.

360 Controller for all my PC games that is, unless they force me to use the 1970's KBM to play a game.

I am still debating on which one I will use. I like the original style of KB/M. But I also like the comfort of the controller. Do you lose any button controls with the controller?

How come? My wireless mouse feels just as responsive as my wired.
