"controller issues"

maybe its just me but i cant get on with first person shooters on the cube and its not because i dont like shooters, on the contrary i love em on my pc, its just that i cant use the two analogue stick control required for it.
i know that the yelow stick is meant to replicate the feel of a mouse on pc but it just doesnt its clumsy and i can never aim properly with it
an example of this would be medal of honour play that on the cube and then play it on pc see what i mean??
maybe the n64 control system was a bit cumbersome and maybe it didnt quite have the freedom of the current system but i sure enjoyed perfect dark and goldeneye a lot more than medal of honour or jedi knight because at least then i allways felt i had control of my character unlike now...
...but like i said maybe its just me??

if you kow wot i mean, im used to there being a button to the right of the main button, e.g. x on cube, square on ps2. when i play on my mates xbox i find myself pressing where there is no button. but once ur used to it the xbox pad is ok. still prefer the cube pad tho :)

I agree. Its sooo perfect for Halo, my hands just automatically go to the right buttons.

you should be able to sidestep bet I suppose it's only a minor prob and the game is otherwise perfect

lol well i guess i'll be ok then.....i hope :0*

good thing is you cant sidestep in metroid unless ur loked on. its no fps anyway. its an action/adventure. with guns. and a nice lady in a suit.

The Xbox controller and FPS games should get married, Perfect.

I love the GC controller as well, Especially the massive "A" button.

i havent played agent under fire yet tho from what u guys say i should'nt bother eh
as for the controller issues i spose i will just have to keep practicing and get better at it soon coz i just gotta have metroid and it would kill me to find i was utterly useless at it ;0)

I told you...

But noooooo you wouldn't listen!

When people move out of the way of bullets, that's just the final insult of the game!

Indeed it does. You can have the "Goldeneye" setup with the only difference being the fire is on the right shoulder button rather than the non-existent trigger. TS2 is more customisable than a lego set...

I loved the trigger from the N64 pads - it felt so natural it was terrifying.
