What games are better with a controller?
Controller for platformers, racing games, and third-person action games that don't require precise aiming.
M+KB for everything else.
>What games are better with a controller?
Ones for children.

Ones for manchildren.
Most of them.
MMOs with a million different skills that have to be bound to a different key each.
oh no this thread from the 18 billionth time
>tfw too smart for vidya
3PV games are better with dual analog. Fighting games too, even though some faggot is sure to mention hitbox, which isn't a keyboard and hasn't won a major yet.
Most genres that have mininal inputs or more casual, a controller is simply more comfortable.
For almost every other genre M&KB is better.
Try playing melee on keyboard- I dare you.
That said Things like castle crashers/battleblock theater can be used with a keyboard but controller is better. i just learned on a keyboard.
Fighting can only be played on a controller.
Is that picture of Gaben on his table photoshopped in? Or does he really keep a pic of himself there?
>Most of them.
Sure, especially fps, rts and anything that requires precise.
Wheels for racing
Joysticks for flying
Dpad or Joystick + mouse for FPS
Dpad + buttons for platformers
Musical instruments or wack ass turntables and shit for rhythm... Etc it goes on and one, each genre has ideal controls.
I'm still a fan of arcade style light guns for house of the dead etc, and the motorcycles you lean on... Why were arcades so damn fun?

>Why were arcades so damn fun?
Because you really had to be around people, not in room alone.
>lock-on mechanic
Oh, I'm terribly sorry, m8. I thought you said "play a game" instead of "watch a game play itself".
what the fuck do you think idiot?

That was my first post in the thread, buddy. Anyway, I don't see how more effort = more fun automatically. I mean, I'm not talking about rail shooters only.
Me neither pal.
It just kills all the fun when your aim automatically jumps. I literally can aim for a head with a mouse in a matter of milliseconds in any game pretty much, but with pad it's fuckin impossible.
That's exactly it. Now you can aim for a head in milliseconds with a controller from a comfortable position on the couch.
Mouse accuracy is useless when you have a good control scheme set up for the controller. It all boils down to preference now.
>iv never played a FPS on PC
>I've never played an FPS on consoles
I can play that game too, friend.
My point is that instead of having extremely bad aim with a controller compared to a mouse, nowadays it's balanced out with autoaim unlike in older games such as Halo CE.
An FPS is not a game.
>yfw mouse accuracy is moot when every game nowadays features some kind of lock-on mechanic
only in absolute garbage console games
