I just hooked up Time Crisis 4 and i have to say, i'm pretty satisfied about the gun and simple shot them ups (not to be confused with traditional 2d platformer-shoot-them-ups). Of course, only if they make a better gun (i.e. more comfy for left handers too) and with force feedbacks...

Do you think there will be a type of FPS game to come out in the future that will have its own kind of controller that will do better to bring console FPS and Computer FPS games together? Not saying an actual keyboard and mouse but something similar that everyone would use?
I don't think there is going to be a FPS game with a controller packed in to appease the mouse keyboard crowd. I don't think it is a large enough market to worry about, most console gamers think a controller is just fine for FPS's. I wish they would just allow keyboard and mouse input as an option (with it built into the games so there isn't the deadzone problem). Put it as a toggle for multiplayer matches to make things even, but just allow the option. It would also help for RTS games going to the console.
As for unique controllers in the future, I think we will see more after the success of the Wii, Rock Band (I think it's probably successful just not in number of units because of the price), Guitar Hero, and if Wii Fit hits big.

ah, forgot about WiiFit... i'm all for it...
The only problem i got is storing those "controllers" after playing; i don't even have Guitar Heroes and Rock Bands (not into those things)...
