It's called claw grip, use it. Moving the camera while sprinting on Dark Souls requires the same thing.

I actually forgot to rant about another fact. Yes, developers are getting extremely lazy when it comes to consoles. However, what is stopping Sony from adding a control remapping feature to the XMB to allow any gamer to customize the controls for any game any way he or she wishes? This would benefit all developers and all gamers.

Doing so, sadly, would not eliminate the one-button-does-all that BW, for whatever ridiculous reason, insisted on. Run, dodge, take cover, break cover, revive, interact, etc, etc, all mapped to a single button on the controller...ridiculous.

I like using my PC because there's nothing more satisfying than cranking up a monstrously, huge case that sounds like a Bell Jet Ranger's turbine kicking in and causing the paint on the back wall to peel.  At full juice, after the city kicks the secondary power grid in, I'm good to go and make a fool of myself in MP.

People think I'm compensating for something. *shrug*

 Bah. Dirty, console peasants and PC scrubs are only shielded from their faults by their ignorance.


The camera is no problem for the PSCWii60, platform of the gods. You could make a case for the PSWii60-C, but that's really a matter of preference.

Even if you do that the camera is still locked into place, so it won't turn.

Hey Derek, can you give us any word on why it's not possible to use the right analogue stick while sprinting?

Always seemed like a very odd choice to me, especially when on PC I can turn corners so easily and see where I'm going to boot.

Me being the PC player I am I might not be the right guy to ask but when I've tested on consoles I guess I just got used to the idea of turning with the left stick while holding A / X down.

Maybe not the answer you're looking for, but it's all I've gotImage IPB

I've had an Xbox for 7 years now, cost me £119.99.

A good PC gaming desktop back then would have cost around £800+ - unfortunately for the PC players they will constantly have to upgrade their machine to keep up with games coming out.


PC gaming is not more expensive than console gaming. Yes a PC has a high initial cost, but the price for PC games starts at a lower level, drops faster AND further than for consoles. Which means that two people with similar purchasing habits will spend roughly the same amount of money in total, just the distribution between hard- and software will differ.

Simple, Bioware loves PC users more. Or EA does.

Well we know that's not true. EA would cheerfully throw pc's over a cliff. Along with pc players I think.

all this crap about thousand dollar PCs and crap...

let me show you all my "gaming" rig

My keyboard
blog.4rev.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/kb-ibm-ps2-kb7953.jpg


My mouse
www.integritycomputers.ca/store/image/cache/data/M-U0026-500x500.jpg

Now my money is on my 2 monitors and my CPU and still it hardly cost me more than $500 extra (because I had a PC anyways, so all I had to do was upgrade a few parts)

The people that WASTE $300 dollars on a super Keyboard and a super mouse alone, do it because they want to, not because they need those to play games.

There are other modded controllers you can purchase, but I can't find right now. I remember there was a gun shaped like one where your middle, ring, and pinky fingers would be used to press ABXY.

Such custom controllers would give you the advantage you seek that comes natively with the PC.
Or you could remap your controls in the options to make one of the analog sticks click's be the dash, or one of the triggers/bumpers act as the dash.

because consoles can NEVER get an upgrade, a 360 will always have the same hardware and cant be upgraded. a pc has ALOT more power than a console too
