15 PC Games That Are Worse With A Controller

The Ts have it and the CTs want it — the AK-47 is undoubtedly the best weapon in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive . A well-placed headshot will drop opponents, even if they are wearing armor. It has a large mag and a good rate of fire, which helps the Ts push into the CTs without getting destroyed. A skilled AK user can even duel a player using an AWP due to peeker advantage if they are quick enough. The AK is the one advantage the Ts get over the CTs and it is colos

Until it’s a rush round or an economy round, it’s never a bright idea to carry the spike while leading the team from the front. If you die, the bomb basically is now in CT’s territory, and reclaiming it can be a has

I’ll definitely be playing Minecraft now that it has officially released, Rob and I will probably do a few more recording sessions with the game. I’ll also be attempting to play through Gears of War 3 on ‘Insane’ difficulty in order to get those exclusive ‘Impossible Mission’ sk

A few members of the Game Rant crew were discussing which of our favorite titles we haven’t had enough of – and would love to see again in sequel form. The only rule was that titles could have no direct sequel, excluding spin-offs, spiritual successors, or rema

Back from LucasArts glory days, Grim Fandango is probably the best example of a graphic adventure you can find. It was amazingly stylized and had an incredible plot which hooked you right from the beginning, and is probably one of the best examples of good writing in the videogame busin

In my opinion, Squaresoft’s seminal Super Nintendo action RPG Secret of Evermore is desperately in need of a sequel. Filled to the brim with a fun and clever story, beautifully diverse level design and the unique alchemy-based magic system, Secret of Evermore is one franchise that Square should definitely attempt to revi

2020 is a year of the rat. It’s been an inauspicious year due to the coronavirus outbreak, but at least some good things came from the gaming world. The release of new first-person shooter (FPS) games like DOOM Eternal, female agents CSGO Half-Life: Alyx, and Call of Duty: Warzone foreshadows a year with great releases to c

The popularity and stardom that Counter-Strike Global Offensive has garnered over the last decade is nothing short of amazing. A staple in the FPS genre, every gamer has come across or at least heard of the game at some point. Although the game is almost a decade old, new players are still joining the game on a regular basis. Embarking a journey in CS:GO is not always easy, and there are a lot of nuances that need to be understood in order to gain success in the g

So there you have it, the games we would like to most like to see sequels* made for. I guess it’s true that you don’t know what you have until it’s gone. In a perfect world, a developer would see this and say “Hey! That’s a great idea.” But sadly this isn’t a perfect world, so all we can do for now is dream and reminisce. Although all hope isn’t lost, as this year’s E3 is next month, and there is always a possibil

Portal can be used for either peripheral. Since Portal is a first-person game, the intuitive decision would be a keyboard and mouse. However, since the game doesn’t place players under a time limit and lets them complete it at a relaxing pace, a controller isn’t a bad option eit

However, this wouldn’t been applicable if time completely stopped in Superhot . Instead, time moves at an extremely slow pace when players are standing, meaning that a bullet coming towards them can still hit them if they take too much time to aim — something that won’t happen if players use a mouse and keyboard inst

I would love to see a refresh or a next installment of Counter-Strike . I played a metric ton of the game in it’s heyday, and the fact that it still thrives online via Steam should be a tell-tale hint that a sequel would be nothing short of a rock-solid i

However, there are times when the added benefit of a mouse and keyboard is simply unmatched, no matter how relaxing it might be to use a controller instead. Here are some great examples of PC games that simply work way better with a mouse and keybo

The only thing I’m probably going to be playing during December is Skyrim … that ought to hold anyone over for at least a year. 2012: Max Payne 3 , Mass Effect 3, and BioShock: Infinite … all third entries in their respective series… this franchise thing is getting out of hand sometimes. Luckily, they’re all going to be good ga

Given the complex systems in Fallout: New Vegas , it’s easy to see why the added benefit of a keyboard and mouse is so important here. Of course, another reason to use this control scheme is that most mods don’t really support controllers either, which is a bum

December is relax time for me. It’s the first month in a while where I play games for fun instead of for review purposes. I plan to journey on in my restart of Skyrim on PC and make time to catch up on a large pile of games, including Saints Row: The Third, Battlefield 3 (PC) and Forza Motorsport 4 while making sure I begin Arkham City, Assassin’s Creed Revelations and Uncharte
