I guess this should be an appropriate community, participants possibly on the older side… so, I only recently got my first gamepad. played with keyboard and mouse up until then.
so, with a couple of games I tried (tomb raiders, uncharted, NFS, etc) it’s kinda going but I suck at anything that needs fast responses, like aiming and hitting moving enemies; don’t think I’d have any trouble with a mouse.
so I guess my question is - any old timers around that got good at this late in their gaming career?
Late? I was early in the PC game controller community, around 2003 or so. Not only did I master game controllers, I heavily modified them as well.
Edit: Try playing Descent, then you might see why I modded my game controllers.
