This might not be the perfect place to discuss this, but I figured I'd at least be in friendly territory.
I'm just wondering how console FPS's have grown in popularity over the years. Have all of these people NEVER played an FPS with a keyboard+mouse?
There was a Dust 514 trailer in another thread and I was entertained/boggled by the obvious control difficulties/limitations the player was having - I had flashbacks to years and years ago playing some James Bond FPS with a console controller and I COULD NOT BELIEVE how clunky it was. I'm not even a huge FPS fan, but my gosh the console controller was truly painful to use. Obviously most players get used to it and do alright, but it still never even comes close to the level of control you get with a mouse+keyboard.
Are all these console players just jonesing for a good PC setup, but can't afford it? Or do they really prefer the console controller? Do console manufacturer's put an addictive chemical in their controllers?
