Have you ever played a shooting game on pc with a 360 controller?
If yes was it easyer?
What did you like about using the controller?
What did you not like about the controller?

I once tried playing Left 4 Dead on PC with a controller, I found that I was a very big disadvantage (e.g. Couldn't look around as fast, which prevented me from saving my team-mates quite a bit, got me kicked from a few servers.)
Pros: simpler control layout.
Cons: Slower, clunkier movement. No custom control layouts (Extra controls, I could switch the defaults. In L4D I have numerous voice and chat binds, set to preset messages.)

Gods no. If you willingly take a controller over a mouse and keyboard, you're a dolt.

I played NFS shift on pc with my ps3 controller, it made the game so much better.. I'd only use it on racing games though, fps games need kb and mouse

Would have to agree...mice are more sensitive and responsive, and the keyboard gives you more options. A controller might "simplify" things...but I think its better to learn mouse and keyboard.
