SOCOM 1, 2 and 3 beg to differ.

Before someone argues the point that those were TPS's, they could also be played in first person. Either way, they didn't have and didn't need aim assist... because console gamers didn't suck back then.

Apparently they do now. What?

There was no aim assist needed simply because there was no kb/m support. MAG didn't have any aim assist either. You can't really be that blind, if controller is an aimbot, then use it. You'll probably find out that maybe controller users are just better than you at using controllers. it's not that aim assist thing.
You want competitive gameplay on a console?
Perfect. If you really want "competition" just use a controller like anybody else. As I already stated in another thread , there are many games where if you use even a specifically-build mouse for ps3 (FragFx for example) you are considered a cheater and not allowed in official tournaments and events. I remember Metal Gear Online, for example. hundreds of players have been banned because of that.

Apparently they do now. iv played them before, amazingly my copies of the games allowed me to have aim assist on, I just went to options and found it, I ended up trading them in because the games sucked. if your originally looking through 3r person view, then its a TPS Protip: Aim assist in SOCOM 1, 2 and 3 did not work online. At all. Ever. Not in any of them.

I remember Metal Gear Online, for example. hundreds of players have been banned because of that. Your entire post works on the assumption that I am a mouser. I have only ever used a dualshock controller for shooters, even on PC. Did you ever stop to think that maybe I want skill to be rewarded to those who work for it instead of handed out to everyone like peewee soccer trophies? When everyone is special, no one is special. If you honestly believe you need borderline-aimbot because someone on the other team might be using a keyboard and mouse, you've already lost to them. If your only way to cope with mousers is to have a computer do 85-90% of the work of aiming for you, maybe that's your fault and not theirs. I've never needed any manner of aim assist when using a DS2/3 on PC to play shooters to be competitive, I adjusted the sensitivity settings and got better at the game I was playing. Instead of panicking about the "inferiority" of your controller against a kb/m, why don't you just play the damn game. If you're concentrating on who is using what input method instead of your aim, battlefield awareness and team coordination, it's no damn wonder the mousers are besting you, but it's not because they're not using a DS3, it's because they're actually focused on what matters: being better than the guy shooting at them. Somewhere along the way, this generation of gamers forgot about that and instead decided everything needed to be handed to them for showing up. Which is exactly how we arrived at this "QQ AIM ASSIST ROCKS AND BESIDES IT'S NOT EVEN THAT NOTICEABLE!" juncture.
