"The PC Gaming Idustry Is Biased Toward Gamepad Gamers!" or "Mouse vs. Otherwise"

[Seil]

So here's the thing: I like videogames. They're my fun. I work in a good (the boss is easy going, the pay is nice) but shitty (customers) customer service gig. I guess I should be happy that I have a job, (I am) but customers really, honestly suck. If you're a customer, if you've bought something today: I hate you.

Anyway, like I said, games are fun. That (aside from the hooch) is what I have for release. Steam is great for that (when download times are higher than 15B/s) (I really like the whole bracket thing, can you tell?) So after everyone left TF2 tonight, I played a little Half Life 2. I noticed that the thing had a "Gamepad Enabled" button, and I was like "Immuna enable the shit outta that!" Because I'm a console gamer. Really the only reason I game online is because I have you "fine" people to play with. All my other games - Mirrors Edge, Killzone, Silent Hill, Metal Gear Solid, what have you, I play via PS3. And the PS3 controller really is the shit.

I have a pink one. (Of course I do, you think I wouldn't?!) It works great! The stuff I play - obviously, because according to The Angry Nintendo Nerd - the most important thing is to be able to play your game. (Excerpt from the review where he swears a bunch) For my PC gaming, I bought a Logitech something or other. I like Logitech because they're cool - they made my first joystick. Anyway, long story... well, it's still pretty long, I tried to play Half Life 2 via my Logitech game pad. And it wasn't that good. ...It was pretty shit, to say the least. It was an interesting experiment, but it wasn't the best "input method." Suffice to say, Valve is discriminating against PC gamepad users.

That (and it is a really long "that,") the gamepad is useful for other things, like my illegal emulators and roms. Like my Duke Nukem 1 & 2s. Like Jazz Jackrabbit. (God damn Jazz is awesome.) But modern day game makers have a bias against gamepad gamers.
