Not into MK personally. Really grown out of fighting games that require combinations to pull off one move. Tacky to me. Not really sure if the same could be said about MK.

MK sucks. So do Wii pointer controls for first-person shooters

Dual analog and pointer controls are still not better than Mouse and Keyboard

Not trying to be "that PC guy", and by all means enjoy your preference, but I just don't see any universe in which dual analog would be viewed as "better" than mouse/keys, unless said "better" describes the comfort experience (playing on giant TV, slouched). Having seen people that are really good with both schemes, mouse and keys is a completely different playing field. Console FPS can trick you into thinking you're better than you are, but that's normally stuff like aim assist (coughing loudly at CoD's joke of a console FPS system) and a watered-down game difficulty. The precision, both of quick movement and stopping on a dime, is at its absolute best with a mouse/keyboard setup. Wiimote/Move would be a decent runner up if it weren't for stop precision/dead-zone issues, but it has its own share of issues. Watch a several-hours-a-day PC gamer play Battlefield Bad Company 2. It's absurd.

Move however has turned out to be a joke, developers aren't taking it seriously as to why many new 3rd or first person titles don't even support it. It's just a dinky add on with hardly any hardcore titles that support it. They wanted a tiny bit of Nintendo's casual pie and they got it.

Please don't do this here! I've got more hands on time with Move than you can dream of and I've played nearly every single FPS on Wii as well, and I promise you - your are completely wrong. This is a dead inaccurate statement, and I'm sorry, but don't bring this in here! Killzone 3 blows any and every single motion controlled game in the FPS/TPS genres out of the water by a mile. Yes, Metroid 3:Corruption has fantastic pointer controls (absolutely loved the game), as well as few others, and it holds it's own for what it is, but it's not Move. I own them both, I've tweaked settings for hours on both, and I'm a die-hard FPS fanatic, and their is a reason that neither Move or Wii pointer controls are utilized in professional tournaments. Dual-Analog input is superb on home consoles, and the Modern Warfare franchise proved it can be close to a keyboard and mouse, but even there the keyboard and mouse reign supreme of the genre, and will likely always will.

Move is not being considered as some half-hearted peripheral - unlike most all of Nintendo's peripherals ever made (of which I own most of too!) - it has great first and third party support and its only been out for 8 months.

I know your a Nintendo die-hard and I respect the heck out of you for it, but you don't see me, or anyone else in this thread, trashing any other companies - especially Nintendo - so please keep the rants out of here. I respect all of the companies (owning all the systems) and I respect die-hard fans of all of them, but I don't take part in this ranting. Keep it civil, or just have respect and withhold the statement altogether. Just to give you a little life lesson my friend; most always, the person doing the talk that is downing another company is ill-informed and biased, and that means nonfactual information. By all means, you do belong in here, and I enjoy all types of discussions here, even if it's not centered directly on the PS3.

@WaltzElf I think this was my third exclusive break, but I do actually play disc golf competitively. I didn't know if my knee would hold out on me this year and this tournament was the first time I had thrown a disc in 7 months and I didn't do too hot at all. My wife has been in contact with Valarie and she has invited my wife to come to a National Competition in Texas and another in north Alabama this year, as she is really good, and has the potential to make good money playing if she gets her act together. I really hope this article helps to push the sport a bit more into the mainstream. It's a lot of fun, and super cheap to play too!

I played inFAMOUS 2 at Best Buy today! It was very awesome, didn't get to see any of the really cool things but the city was open to exploration in the demo so that was fun.

Beat Nier the other day. So much fun. It's just a great world to be in, even though there are little annoyances, I got over them quickly. One of the few games that I think I'll go through to get the other endings. So that's another win for this thread!

Also, hurry up PSN store. I wanna get the DLC!

REally glad you enjoyed it! Definately one of the most underrated RPGs on the PS3.

And how awesome is that soundtrack?!? I want to buy that in itself.

Fuzzy

Yeah the soundtrack is awesome. The song that plays in the northern plains was amazing the first time I heard it. I tried looking for a place that had it for sale. Play-Asia is the only place I can find it.

Also, Kaines rants were quite enjoyable too.

Oh, how I wish I had the time to play Nier, but with all the Xbox 360 catch-up I've been playing, it will be a LONG time before I get to anything else.
