I'm not saying any names but 4th place and 8th place on the BF2(Pc) leader board use a program called pinnicle profiler and a 360 controller , I was in a clan with them for about 2 years.
You would be surprised how many people play pc games like that. You have to spend hours tweaking things till you get it just right, but some of the best pc gamers out there use it and would never admit it, because they don't want others to know thats what they use. I personally still perfer a mouse, but when I Alpha tested Shadowrun in house for FASA Studios, we had 40 testers and the 360 controller gamers with no aim assist killed the mouse and keyboard guys.
It got so bad that the Dev team had to add some aim assist to the mouse so they could keep up.


I knew a lot of pc gamers that talked a lot of smack about a mouse and keyboard being better and when Shadowrun went live, they shut up real quick.

I personally think that it depends on which you use the most. It boils down to hours put into using that preference and for me Shadowrun proved that. I played it on pc and 360 and I was better with a Mouse and keyboard, yet there were players just as good with a controller.

Off topic somewhat - I've tried that. Every one released to date has to emulate the gamepad with the mouse - so the end result is something hardly accurate at all compared to a mouse running on a PC.

Small movements are especially messed up - real hard to emulate small gamepad analogue movements on a mouse. So you get a bunch of jumping around the "center" of what you are trying to actually hit.

Which brings up another thing - I certainly hope mouse support (if added) in the ps3 BOP patch is not an emulation of a gamepad stick. Hopefully it is full mouse support.

I know the PS3 update is coming first, but why is it that every time it is discussed by Devs or otherwise, there is basically no mention of the 360 update?

The only thing has been said is that it will come later. They are not giving a definitive answer.
