No auto-aim or aim assist OPTION for the single player game = no buy from me. Im a father, got a full time job, full time friends and family with now time to learn2aim with a controller. Who loses out? not me, while i play bayonetta, GoW3, inFamous... naughty dog loses out on my $60 and a sale.

devs reading this?: AIM ASSIST/AUTO AIM OPTION FOR SINGLE PLAYER DOESN'T HURT ANYTHING!

# Actually... — Hatakare 2010-07-21 23:13

There's inbuilt Aim-assist that sucks and pisses me off, and a more severe version for the Very Easy Difficulty.

# uncharted2 — GreySoul 2009-06-23 07:22

the game is easy enough

# wtf — jrsmaster411 2009-06-23 08:05

why is puzzle mixed in with casual/social???

# hmmmm — fearlubu 2009-06-23 11:30

i dont see anything great about L4D2, isnt it the same thing, just a little upgrade?

and split/second?? disney is in on this, wtf

the rest is understandable i guess....kind of skeptical about scribblenauts...........and the PSP had a great lineup this year

# Have you played the beta? — Anhmeister 2009-06-23 14:20

The aim-assist is quite noticeable and will help some people.

I personally find that aim-assist and whatnot to be a nuisance, but it helps those who don't have the ability to aim properly.
