I've watched people play Portal2 on the 360 vs the PC... what a difference.

The 360 people look like seniors eating dinner at 4:30pm, with a pleasent non-distinct melody playing in the background. The PC people are like my classmates at a rave jumping around with speed, energy, and precision.

My $.02

But that's part of the reason most console fps games don't support it. The devs know a mouse user will dominate gamepad users in online play and ruin their experience.

It's too bad, because I find gamepads frustrating for FPS, but don't like PCs as a gaming platform. I don't like the fact that PC games have to compromise themselves for fear of losing sales to technological laggards. Anyone remember Baldur's Gate shipping on 6 compact discs? Diablo II on 3? Never got DVD versions to this day. Then there's the graphics cards issues because there's hundreds of different cards to account for. There's always some bug popping up on particular models that ati and nvidia are slow to fix in their ginormous unified drivers. Then there's the fact that in 2011, we still get horrific tearing by default in videos and games because Microsoft refuses to create and enforce a decent renderer environment.

You should have pointed out that shadowrun was heavily modified to level the playing field. The K+M behavior was nerfed and there was liberal auto-aim employed and a cone of fire slop so that mouse accuracy was essentially useless. Furthermore it's got heavy non-aiming elements that determine the outcome of fights. The developers of Shadowrun don't even consider it an FPS. They call it a "RPG on speed".

The K&M debate does not really exist. There is no debate. The K&M are better at FPS games period. I believe that anyone who says otherwise has some non-objective attachment to the controller (aka fanboy).

I'm both a PC and Xbox player (probably more xbox last few months but some big AAA titles are hitting PC soon so that will shift back). I'm good at both control styles. K&M sucks for fighting and sports games but is unmatched for FPS. I consider these to be facts more than just my opinion.
