i found myself aiming to an enemy, and i want to correct just 15 pixels on screen, and sometimes is quite hard, i try to move just a bit and the controller or movs much more or much less, difficult to adjust a few pixels like you do in a mouse.
but that's the same with any FPS game on consoles... but i saw many people that can control quite good the controller, but we need a lot of time to master it.

Exactly what I find too. Just not the accuracy or ability to fine turn aiming. Console versions of games compensate for this by giving a larger hit area around objects and enemies to make it easier to hit them even if you are not quite aiming exactly on target. For PC gamers this often feels bad and can ruin the experience a bit.

On PC FPSs I always love the precision you can get with aiming, especially when sniping. You just can't get that with console controllers.
