To be fair, playing fps with controller has always been garbage.
To be fair to be fair, Portal on Xbox controller is entirely serviceable. You don't need super fast precision control in Portal anyway.
The fuck you on about? Have you ever played Portal beyond the first rooms? You definitely need fast and precise aiming in Portal.
May I enquire if you are completely informed on the topic?
Have you played Portal on controller? I've played through the game twice on controller on Xbox 360 and with mouse and keyboard on PC.
Both are very much playable. You don't need goddamn motherfucking MLG 100% 360° 720° noscope quickscope blaze it mtn dew it skillz only attainable through rarest of gamer mice and finest of mechanical keyboards. It's perfectly serviceable on controller. That was my point.
That true, but the setup we are on can’t use a mouse. (Sunshine on Apple TV.)
