Pulling a trigger to fire a gun is pretty cool, but it is way easier to rack up w1ckd h3adsh0ts with a mouse so I am torn

Just got my first gaming pc, and getting used to kb+m after two decades of controllers is pretty tricky!! I haven't gotten the hang of hitting the numbers to do things yet, and every time I have to I end up messing up positioning when I moved back down to wasd. Controllers are good because I've used them all my life and using thumbs to hit buttons is really easy.

heres how you play third person shooters like gta on pc: use the mouse and keyboard like god intended, and then turn slightly to make use of your sick rear end racing wheel next to your keyboard whenever you need to get in a car/horse/other vehicle

if you dont have a racing wheel, well, then, you just arent serious enough about gameing

Have fun with your bad posture, while I chill back in my recliner playing any PC game ever made with a Dual-Strike using Pinnacle game profiler.

Playing an FPS or 3rdPS with a controller feels.....wrong. Mouse and keyboard or :frogout: for those type of games.

GTA style games I use a controller because you spend about 70-90% of the time in those games driving and it's a pain to switch to M&KB when on foot for those games. They usually have lock-on targeting for combat anyway.

I refuse to believe those people actually exist, OP.

They do and have infiltrated this forum of true gamers. They should be lined up against a wall for summary execution.

EVERY MORNING I WAKE UP AN OPEN PALM SLAM A CARTRIDGE IN THE SUPER FAMICOM. ITS E-ZEAO AND RIGHT THEN AND THERE I START DOING THE MOVES ALONGSIDE THE MAIN CHARACTER, CORPORAL FALCOM.
I once used glovepie to pair a wiimote and nunchuk to my computer and I used the nunchuk to move and my mouse to aim and I jizzed in my pants so hard that I can never use that control scheme again

nunchuk was small enough for me to reach down and pop buttons on my keyboard that werent crouch or jump easily too

some retarded coworker who said he was in a bunch of MLG events ( and a microsoft ambassador??) refused to accept the superiority of kbm because controller "takes more skill". using aluminum foil in place of a skillet to fry eggs takes more skill too but you're retarded if you do it.
