Ah, I doubt it.  There's no point anyways.

Can't you customize your gamepad settings on UT3?  If not, that sucks, but I'm sure it's possible.  But that doesn't matter because it's UT3 and not PS.  If the devs are nice they'll let us customize our own.  What I was suggesting was making people like you, me, xris, Tidenburg(?), and all others that use gamepads be the people who decide on what the default control scheme is.

wow...

Shadowrun is a FPS based on the old RPG game universe... and, well, the table game.

It's a FPS


But also using magic + complex control sheme + gameplays + strategies + combos


Controller for the win.

Eh, it's not really controller ftw, or mouse ftw.  They both win.

The control scheme on shadowrun was pretty horrible. Granted I only played the demo, but I assumed the controls were much the same. It took forever to switch weapons and use abilities. It was one of those games that really should have been on a PC, because you seriously needed more keys in that game.

Most FPS work fine on console, but Shadowrun was... urgg...

The controls were fine, what was hard is to switch your items and remember what is where LOLLLLL. One of the rare different game thatfinally needs 4 or 5 hours to handle the controls when you play it the first time, unfortunately, his Visual Design wasn't enough happealing.

To bad
PS for the win

For all of you people who think that analog sticks can beat a mouse, try playing a real time strategy game like Starcraft and trying to be fast with an analog stick. Honestly you'll probably have most of your trouble even selecting your units on screen.  You'll see just how the latent inaccuracy of a controller makes the game super difficult.

Mice are faster and more accurate than analog sticks. It's just a fact.

It's people claiming that controllers are just as good as mice that makes Xbox users seem ridiculous n00bs in the eyes of some PC users. Trust me, controller versus mouse. You'd get owned. Seriously.

This is the most ridiculous post ever, half of the time when you play a RTS you use exclusively all the 1001 shortcuts on the Keyboard, not the mouse...

RTS is basically designed exclusively for KEYBOARD & MOUSE and it's actually not an action/ shooter game.
ANyway you are totally right - Keyboard + mouse = RTS.. even if command & conquer 3 on 360 rocks!

By the simple fact that it is harder to master a 360 controller, the only guys who can be called noob are the Pro PC guys claiming that a Mouse + Keyboard is godly while it's so friendly and easy to use. Isn't a real man supposed to enjoy real challenges!!? Using a controller requires more skills and the Console Pro Gamers have truly something to be proud of.

Thumbs up

You can't use RTS's as a point, they are designed for Keyboard + Mouse.  It's like saying that PC's suck becasue they get a lot of ports and a lot of things aren't strictly designed for it.  Kind of a stretch but you get what I mean.]

Once you master the controller, there really isn't THAT much of a difference between using a mouse or controller.  There just isn't.  The problem is that a lot of people who play console haven't mastered using sticks yet so PC players get the idea that they are extremely akward or stupid and hard to use.  They can be hard to use for newcomers, but once you are used to using them it's not a problem.

And what's wrong with a challenge?  I love challenges and I love tough ones.  I hate how people who only use mouse/keyboard think that it's impossible-and rather it can be smooth for the vets of gamepads.

Anyway in the later months, when I'll have a bit more time... I'll make a video showing UT3 played with a Controller VS with a Keyboard + mouse. It looks very different to me, but the final results are pretty much the same.

A real man is supposed to master his craft in whatever way possible (while showing some morale) in order to excel from others.

Mouse + Keyboard pwns Controller = FACT

Now THIS is the most ridiculous statement ever.

1) I don't play a game so that I can spend all my time mastering the controls. If that's your idea of a deep game, go play Dance Dance Revolution.
2) What about the female gamers?

amen to that.
it's not that you can't reach decent speed and accuracy with a controller, but you can't reach the same maxium level you can reach with a mouse.

cnc3 really sucks hard on pc, and it sucks even more on console.
the challenge in a game shouldn't be mastering the controls, but mastering the game...
