Why is Timesplitters so bloody hard to control?!?!

I have rented it from Blockbuster and the controls are really hard.
Can you change them?
Do you get used to them?
Thanks

hmmm... I think the default controlling system is the best. And it\'s not hard. How long have you been training? It can take hours to learn them completely.

But when you have learned they\'re very rewarding. Best controlling system there could be if asking from me. Best controlling system for a controller anyway.

keep on practising. It\'ll finally melt into your spine and then it\'s a thrillride.

Patience. Hmmm... too restless you are. Jedi you will never be...

Learning curve of the controls shouldn\'t take more then a few hours of playing. Though I still hate FPS on console because of the speed when you\'re turning. I\'d much prefer to mouse and keyboard.

I agree that. But isn\'t there supposed to be a usb keyboard and a mouse on the markets somewhere ( or will be )?

They\'re not hard although after playing UT or Q3 on my PC going back to the controller is very frustrating to say the least.

Thats the reason I hate that dumb game. I am helplessly trying to run around and shoot, swith weapons, etc. but then my friends will just shoot me. Why cant all console FPS\'s have set-ups like Medal of Honor?

I agree, I hate the stupid controls on Timesplitters. It makes the game suck. Anyway, I think I am just about done with these types of games (FPS). They are all looking the same, plus all that spinning aound just makes me dizzy anymore.

  I got used to the controls pretty quickly and I think they really adds to the gameplay. But I do agree I was pretty pathetic at first because of it.

Practice is the key to this game!  I love playing against my freind in this game!  There is nothing better than sneaking up behind someone, and blasting them with a shotgun! So much fun.
