you know you've been playing too many console games when you come back to PC gaming and can't use keyboard and mouse in fps.

That old saying now applies - get good. But wow painful transition. Back in the mid 2000's I was a total demon with a KB/Mouse combination.

But with the raise of games consoles and life, then moving to a gaming laptop I've now finally splashed some cash on a nice gaming rig, and wow I'm like a total noob again with fps. Been looking at getting a high end gaming PC for over a year, finally did it and really enjoying the better graphics and fps. Not finding it as enjoyable right now working out if I should stick to KB/Mouse.

I guess I could play them with a gamepad, how many are playing fps PC games with a gamepad? I don't tend to game online all that often anyhow.
 
PC Exclusives - Keyboard/Mouse

Cross platform releases mostly are designed with "gamepad first" regarding control method with k/m controls tacked on.

ok makes sense. I'll still try and use keyboard and mouse for fps but I guess if I get too frustrated the trusty gamepad is still there.. : )
 
I must admit I mostly use controller. Multiplayer games M+K is definitely the way but for just solo stuff I find using controller a lot more comfortable.
 
fps - steering wheel for look wii mote with pc drivers for shoot

rts - hotas joystick and pedals for mouse and webcam button for select

driving - printer remaining ink button for accelerate
