It wasn't fast and easy for me.  I was never able to get the hang of
it and could never reliably shoot anyone, and that was in two attempts
to play the game.  More generally I've never gotten the really hang of
console controls in shooter games, but Grand Theft Auto 3 was the worst
for me.

Yah, it would probably be better if I switched between a controller
and keyboard and mouse, but if the controls didn't suck this shouldn't
be necessary.  I didn't have a problem using a keyboard and mouse for
everything when playing Saints Row 3, Saboteur, FarCry 2/3 and Sleeping
Dogs.
