Yeah agreed thehitman, I'd really like to see a controller with a trackball built in (replacing the right joystick) just for looking around and aiming so you get the best of both :)
It's not a good comparison compared to a console / computer with proper controller for a mouse.
PS3 mouse = preset speeds like the controller
PC = no speed restriction so you are able to fully use hand, eye coordination which is why there's no need for aim assist.
If I didn't have the facility to use a mouse (no table etc) I'd use a trackball which works great.
I did enjoy UT3 on PS3 but it is about 50% slower than the PC versi...
It had emulated mouse support as the PS3 doesn't have a mouse driver - it's not true free movement mouse support as seen on PC's Mac's etc.
The scroll / look rate was a set of fixed speeds and UT3 had to be slowed down considerably because of this.
A twitch fps game is extremely fast gameplay where your natural reactions take over.
But would work even better if there were proper mouse drivers so you weren't limited to preset scrolling speeds.
This was why UT3 movement on consoles was extremely slow compared to the PC version
Very interesting if the PS4 can fully support keyb / mouse rather than the failed emulated version on PS3 as it could also mean introducing consoles to twitch fps games (UT, Q3a etc) and proper RTS like C&C, CoH, Starcraft etc
I went with the Freelancer LTI and a custom skin. Looking forward to a bit of Privateer style trading and exploration :)
Because the frontend looks like an old 2D (ascii) DOS layout in a 3D world!
Even Win95 had shadow effects!
I'm supposed to put fingerprints all over my expensive photo monitor!
Don't listen to customers but force it down their throats with
"we'll block future DX upgrades if you don't"
I'd buy Win8 if it includes a toolkit to create my own 3D (bars/menus etc) themes, and features like the ability ...
Can't wait.. got the T-shirt n card :)
Pre-orders can be cancelled. If pre-orders required a purchase payment you can bet there wouldn't be any pre-orders.
I've pre-ordered the PS4 but I'm still keeping a close eye on all the info not released as yet - aka I read a day ago that COD will still use peer to peer networking which is a definite no sale - BUT are there going to be other games still opting for this and if so what's the point of paying for PSN online - I'd rather use a PC with dedicate...
It's also interesting that one of the Wii's big attractions was the in home fitness but they've done nothing to expand on this with the Wii-U.
My wife's main complaint of the Wii balance board is it's so inaccurate. If they brought out a pro version for the Wii U she would buy the kit immediately - and I suspect so would many others.
I accepted a lot of the recent Cod limitations being down to juggling with limited memory but there's no way I'll ever buy anything like it again on the next gen consoles.
I'll be hitting BF4, Killzone and I'm sure there will be plenty of other high quality fps games coming through.
At least they wont have the problem of stock shortages:)
You can see why in the UK "freedom of the press" is considered so important as getting fired just because publishers don't like it is ridiculous.
It does rather give a good insight into why so many game reviews are good and seem to completely ignore all the various code errors.
Interesting as flame fonts have been around since the early Apple / Atari 8-bits.
You have to wonder if the patent itself is fraudulent.
Of course the next thing will be Bungie telling them they can't use Myth as it's a game series name.

OK so sure there are a lot of ppl that already own BF3 and I'm one of them but how about looking at it from a different perspective to just what you already have and consider that for existing BF3 players it will boost the players and servers again.
I also own Xcom Enemy Unknown BUT... I still downloaded the free PSN version as it means I don't need to have the disc to hand - and this will also apply to BF3.
They're looking to the future with blinkers on as their market is continually shrinking.
I can see MS ending up like Kodak etc.
Whether some prefer Win 8 to Win 7 or not isn't really the issue. Many Win 7 owners just don't see the point to upgrading as there's very little benefits - after all Win 8 is just a new frontend rather than a new OS.
Locking the updated Directx to Win 8.1 isn't going to encourage mass upgrades and therefore won't encourage devs to put effort into the new features.
After all the issues regarding the unsavoury features in X1 I'm surprised MS are ...
It depends how you define low income. Your options suggest poverty not low income.
I'm sure there are many that choose not to have direct broadband internet access and likely find just using their mobile service offers enough (email, browsing/shopping etc) but budgeted their entertainment using a games console over drinking, smoking, subscription TV etc.
It seems come X1 launch time the media will be looking to see how far behind they are to the Wii U rather than PS4
More DLC but no fix for the 1.01 Patch that damages hard drive integrity by damaging the HD's file system and database.
