Open channel3.gg in Chrome. Click the Install icon in the right side of the address bar:
Click Install when you get this prompt.
After installation, you can pin to the Windows taskbar alongside your other favorite apps.
Open channel3.gg in Safari. It has to be Safari.
Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.
Tap Add to Home Screen.

BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.

Usually keyboard and mouse for PC games, but there's a few games out there (@rocket-league for example) where it's just easier to play with a controller. I think Rocket League actually recommended pla...more
Controllers can be used very easily from my couch, my bed, my recliner, a desk chair, a kitchen chair or anything else. It's very versatile and that hasn't changed from one system to the next.
Most games I play are fps and old MS-DOS games. The only fps games I'll play with controller is Halo. I only bother to set up the old gravis gamepad for a few of the older titles.
I used to play ac...more
Okay, hear me out - gamepad is the more comfy way to play, even if it's harder to aim. It's more relaxed and I think more fun. Keyboard and mouse is harder for me with my tiny hands but it's usually w...more
i'm a console person so this is kinda obvious 😅
(point&click-puzzle-adventure stuff and strategy games tho do feel weird when they have console ports and should be played on PC with mouse imo)
At my core I love PC gaming with a mouse and keyboard. Maybe I'll get back there some day, because kids and Rocket League have me using a controller for now.
in my defense I am 50/50, switch is controller (even tho there is a way to KBM, watch out Splatoon), but everything else is KBM and I am glad I made the switch
I can play non-shooters either way as I grew up with a controller. On shooters though, if I'm using a controller I might as well hold it with my elbows. I'd do just as well.
Controller by default. Most PC games I’ll still play with KBM but I’m trying to get in the habit of using controllers for those too. I do prefer KBM for the few FPS games I play
Controller ONLY. Have never got into ANY game with keyboard/mouse except for a fun little game I like to call "how many emails can Joel reply to in an hour"
There are games like Rocket League and Binding of Isaac that are more comfortable on controller, but I find myself leaning more and more toward KBM with every new game I pick up.
Although I dabbled with KBM back when I played Warcraft/StarCraft, I’ve been on controller for the longest time.
Never really got a “gaming PC” up until 2 years ago, so it’s always been con...more
I used to play racing games & an NHL game with KB&M .. when I was like 7. I'm so wired to use a controller now that going KB&M seems super foreign to me and not something I'd want to spend time learni...more
Depends 100% on the game: everything I play on my computer is always KB&M except for Overcooked - that's one game I just have to play with a controller.
I'd argue any game game be played with either setup. But a game designed for KBM to me always feels better than a game designed for controller.
Still it does depend on the game.
This just may be the easiest question C3 has ever posted!
I've been using a controller since the NES; and that's what I'll use until I die! I understand the appeal of the mouse for aiming, but contr...more
I only use controller for Rocket League and Binding of Isaac. Modern Aim Assist has tempted me to go to controller for FPS games, but KBM is just more fun to me. I just try to avoid close combat becau...more
For most games I use KBM. But really it depends on the game. Some games, such as Diablo 3, I found are better on a controller. Whereas most MMORPGs like WoW, are better with KBM.
It depends on the game. FPS games are better with M/C over a controller, even with the aim assist you get. Action/Adventure games are better on a controller. Most games are more comfortable on a contr...more
Grew up on controller so I know no different. I’ll even use a controller if I have to use a computer. I like to think of it as it take more skill to play FPS with my thumbs rather than my whole arm....more
It depends on the game. This is like asking hammer or screwdriver, which is better? If you have a nail (need to aim and click) a keyboard and mouse. If you have a screw (platformer) a controller is b...more
I mean some games have more advantages on keyboard but controller is usually better to play with then keyboard and mouse so controller is what I would pick since I think it works better for more games...more
