because they're fun. also, if a game has PvE it's not an FPS.

Sure goldeneye and perfect dark and other N64 and some PS1 games were good and sold but Halo perfected the console FPS and proved it could be a system seller, Xbox would not exist today if not for Halo

Years of deluding them into thinking they're actually playing the game instead of the game actually playing themselves have paid off.

TIL Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake, Unreal, and Half-Life aren't FPSs.

Can a person have fun on a $300 bicycle instead of a $1500 one? I remember having a mountain bike for around that price, and the track bike my dad owned looked gay and boring as shit compared to mine.

depends on functionality and material.
your $300 mountain bike is extremely fun, and all the kids love it, but once you grow up, you realize that you care more for pure power, pure functionality, and pure quality. that's because you suddenly have a job, start saving money together and decide: do you still want to play video games, or do you think you've "grown out of them"? if you still want to play video games, do you want to play them a child, or are you curious enough to see all the possibilities?

You can play K&M on consoles, using a XIM4 device.

>>340038890
but the only people who do that are faggots who can't compete on PC.

As a followup, this is what happens when you use mouse and keyboard in a console game. Have a laugh.

if you own a console, you don't want responsibility over your system - you let sony, microsoft and nintendo take that gladly from you. you don't want any freedom with your system - so that the big corporations can do their thing in peace, they are here to entertain you after all, not to make money off of you.

Can someone answer me this:

Even with that converter, shouldnt the aiming be still "analog" as in your aim would be better but aim would still could only move in the analog directions like with a controller and not anywhere like on PC?
>>
>>340040902

what are "analog directions"? analog sticks can aim in as many directions as a mouse.

Did you didn't noticed that he is still in controller mode? When he looks around to fast you see he is over moving.
>>
>>340040902
Mice and analog sticks both transmit velocity, not position.

The same reason PC players play driving games
>>
>>340040902
You're correct, you're always limited by the maximum allowed stick sensitivity setting of the game.
>>
>>340041338
Console players can plug in any controller or wheel they want now?
>>
>>340041225
>>340041308

Play Operation Raccoon City on PC with a mouse.
You'll know what im talking about.
Because you will notice it instantly.(well if you play shooters regularly)

You aim will only move in analog directions.

That how a shit port it is.

>>340041338

Wheels are availiabe on both PC and Consoles.

It's just one of those threads, isn't it?

Mashed doesn't really work with wheel. Or a controller.

I just got an Xbox controller for my pc so I can play ddda and rocket league.
Decided to try borderlands 2 and it was WAY BETTER, the vibrations when shooting and getting, and being able to play comfortable from my chair was just great.

Can't see me using it for cs:go or even cod:waw that are the other fps I play.

If mouse steering was standard, driving games would be more bearable with kb+m. Euro truck simulator did that perfectly

>>340036639

This is up there with fun being a buzzword.
>>
>>340039008

the funny thing is, thats a pretty average score for any decent player. A competitive player wouldnt even have half of that death count.
>>
>>340043413
it's Cod where the TTK is 0.2 seconds, guns have no recoil or spread, the respawn timer is 1 second and the game doesn't care if it spawns someone right behind your back
no, they wouldn't
