Thoughts on better interface devices...

Cylon69 · 01-30-2007, 09:40 PM

Okay so as much as I prefer PC games over consoles, my girlfriend and I bought a Wii. Wii is a fun for having guests drinking and trying to swing the controller like a golf club, but I quickly realized that a double handed controller might be more efficent for first person shooters. Assuming that you had a large enough screen you could aim one controller at the screen to eliminate the mouse, and use the left handed controller to elminate the keyboard. Just a weird thought. Anyone finding any devices really work better than mouse-keyboard?

well, i use a n52 nostromo speedpad instead of my keyboard which i think improves my play considerably, but in the end that's only a slight deviation from the keyboard.

I do suggest the speedpad to practically anyone though.

I prefer a mouse and keypad over a console controler anytime hands down. thats just my thought. I suck at halo on the x-box but i rape on my pc =)

Like Zoraster, my personal preference is the n52 over the keyboard.

During a few sessions of 2142, mine happens to "trip" over the powerstrip a few times.
