> Judging by the general Internet reaction to Titanfall, some of you readers are no doubt crying at the injustice of the second scenario described. Many see innovations like that smart pistol as just another example of the "dumbing-down" of the hardcore shooter experience, removing the need for the kind of aiming dexterity genre fans have been grooming since the days of Wolfenstein 3D in the name of "accessibility." First-person shooters should be about twitch-reflexes, split-second timing, and the ability to line up and fire a headshot in a single smooth motion, the argument goes. This new homing pistol ruins that in favor of skill-free, aim-free kills.

There used to be some FPS releases, like a later "Medal of Honor" release, on the PS2 that did not have controller options for left handers, which pretty much flies in the face of the above quote.
