The director of Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T., Jurassic Park, and many more classics has long spoken about his love of video games, stretching back to 1982 when he revealed the instant thrill and ego “massage” that playing games like Donkey Kong and Tempest provided.
Took me the longest time to get used to controllers as well. I’m pleased that o know how to use both though. Each scheme is the best at something
I go the opposite. I have been console gaming for 40 years. I can perform much better even in fps games while on a controller
Maybe he knows where all the unsold E.T. carts are buried.
I had the same problem, having never used a console. I’ve always been using PCs (starting with small 8 bit machines, to a 286, and later to the beasts we currently use (running Linux though). It took me a good while to get used to the Steam deck.
I had no choice because I have no other gaming rig at the moment while my home is being completely rebuilt, so my PC has been turned off for two years now :(.
I’ve gotten better at it, and I’m getting through Fallout on the deck, but I have to avoid some games. For while some games do indeed work better with a controller, others (FPS) are way better with keyboard and mouse.
So all in all, I’m glad that the Deck has opened new possibilities. But the game controller isn’t the ultimate gadget, just another option.
Guys, it really depends on the type of game.
