Author Topic: best/worst game controls you've ever played with?  (Read 3050 times)

worst: any game with a forgetton of unnecessary controls, it's not fun to memorize every single little control.

best: dunno
dont play arma ever then
stuffs got like 30 buttons

best: sly cooper. those games have such good flow in terms of moving and using your abilities, you really feel like a ninja

worst: any game that makes you click in the brown townog stick to zoom

Best: inFAMOUS 1

Worst: inFAMOUS 2

Best: Any platformer that has tight controls and isn't rage inducing BECAUSE of the controls, example being Super Meat Boy
Worst:
1. Platformer or arena based fighting game (Mortal combat) on a keyboard
2. Any fps on the console (There is a reason a lot of games have target helping, like Red Dead Redemption. Made shooting somewhat bearable.)
3. Platformers that are very floaty and slippery, especially with fast paced and precise jumps. (LBP is somewhat floaty, but isn't too slippery. Jumps would be infuriating if it was faster paced, so LBP is not in this category)
4. Any motion controlled game thats poorly made. Nothing worse than a stuffty wii game that doesn't respond correctly to the controller
And on that, any FPS with motion controller (Resistance 3, i'm looking at you.)

i always loving zoom in after shooting the shotgun/sniper in halo and i have no loving idea why i am cursed with such a curse.
sticks 2 sensitive gotta circumsize em

worst controls would prolly go to kid icarus uprising

ffs it requires a stand to play safely, which would be fine if it wasn't a freakin HANDHELD.

It also gave Sakurai (guy who made it) RSI from testing it.


Flash games that make you use the arrow keys instead of WASD.

Forgot the name but it uses A L T V and the movement and R and B for the action. Wtf?

I recently picked up ultima IX from a local store, I stuff you not, the controls are:

right click to walk forward,
ctrl+right click to strafe left
alt+right click to strafe right
alt+ctrl+right click to walk backwards
q to lock/unlock the camera and use the reticule as a curser
drag equipment on yourself to equip it (I didn't see a paperdoll, but there might be one)

It crashed about an hour and a half into it though and I haven't launched it since, but it was surprisingly more fun than you'd expect.

Worst for me is DOOM with a keyboard/mouse.

I can not use its controls at all.
