Default Dislocated thumb in Vice City...

Well almost... Much as I love Vice City , I hate one particular mission which has blocked my progress for weeks now - and no, I won't use cheats.

It's Phnom Penh. I find it absolutely infuriating trying to aim the gun using my left thumb from that bobbing helicopter. I've made it as far as the third rooftop before the copter damage has maxxed out and I've died. I suppose there's no easy way round it but repeated trial and error - and risking a dislocated thumb.

To anyone who's played the PC version - how much easier is this with keyboard and mouse? I'm seriously considering going down the PC route as I've only completed about 30% of the PS2 game so far.

The mouse and keyboard not only makes this mission much easier to complete, it also makes pretty much any gaming task much much easier.

Dude, I beat that on my first try. Hit different parts of the craft,and see if you are able to take it down easier.
