Default Driving sequencs on a PC suck

I just have to vent, ANY PC game where your forced into a driving sequence, just sucks. Infact, ill say utter failures. Im about to rip every game with a driving sequence i can think of off my hard drive, and NEVER install them again.

Trying to get around driving sequences on a PC, is like playing a first person shooter on console - RETARDED. Driving sequences are made for consoles. you really need an analog stick to control it correctly. Doing it on a keyboard, you just don't have the fine tunning you need. Its alot like playing a FPS without a mouse - it sucks balls.

stupid freaking driving sequences. DAMN i hate them. Piss poor game design.

I usually just use my joystick, which I must admit is kinda hard now with the
monstrosity known as X-52.

Personally I don't mind driving sequences with my keyboard, maybe its just because I've never been used to anything but a keyboard. Not exactly precise maneuvering but eh. Of course I hate games centered around cars (Well I hate cars in general) so its generally a non issue.

Tanks though, I never have any issues driving tanks with my Keyboard.

Hey! I never said buy an Xbox. I would never say buy an Xbox.

My Bro-in-Law was looking for a console the other week and asked for my recommendations: I struggled to say PS3 over 'buy a decent PC that isn't an all-in-one with a poxy Celeron™ slowcessor". The pratt bought an Xbox. I'm hoping he gets the ring of death soon.

In essence, please don't mis-quote me.

Unless it's for a funny purpose, and that's not, people will just now think I'm a bigger prick than before.
