Quick list of reasons PCs are better than consoles.

You misunderstood what i said. obviously the 1990's with N64 were worse as that was before modern controller standards with PS1/XBox basically.

i have played shooters on consoles since the more modern era and ill take a mouse+keyboard every single time as it's just easier for me to aim as i am not good enough to play shooters on consoles with a analog stick as it's simply too difficult to aim quickly enough to enjoy the game. basically i am handicapped using a analog stick to aim where as with a mouse i am as good as i can be.

but aiming aside... i actually do like a controller as it's more comfortable in your hands and easier on your hands as that's what i been doing recently when playing Mafia III on the PC is for general car driving(it's definitely better for car driving than keyboard since acceleration/braking is more precise because you got more control over the acceleration/braking), and everything outside of actual shooting, i been using my wireless XBox360 controller, but when i have to shoot i sit that down and go back to the mouse+keyboard combo.

p.s. i did finish playing Red Dead Redemption (on XBox360) and it was decent and all but only reason i finished that is because of the lock-on ability as if i had to aim straight up, like you normally do, there is no way i could have played that game and finished it.
