It has the D-pad. I'm not sure if it will also have the nunchuck like the one for the Wii.

Oh yea, and the whole point of it is that you aim by pointing.

I have only tried them for Red Steel and thought they were decent, but yea the PS3 could use one (otherwise we would have a motion sensor gap, and we wouldn't want that in the console cold-war, would we?)

PS: Lou Reed is fucking awesome
PPS: How did you get that title below your name?
You gotta try Metroid Prime: Corruption, then. Stellar controls for a FPS. Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 is good too (well, control is, game is so-so).

Yes he is.

Title was made when i signed up. I think people miss the option.

If you think about it, you don't really need a nunchuck attachment. You could probably just hold a controller with one hand, aim with the 360mote.

Dual motion sensing(or any control setup really) is fun if you have full button mapping to remap the bugger so you can enjoy the game with intuitive controls you had to crowbar in.

Sensitivity you can adjust or at least is sensitive enough to not jump all over the place when you are trying to aim(WII rail shooters).

Really.....when will the industry learn...cookie cutter layouts are not for everyone...

Yea that's what I thought too. Just use your thumb to stir on the D-pad and the mote to aim. The design might actually be easier than the Wii-mote then.

Well i could see a couple of Wii titles coming to the 360. Maybe House of the dead overkill and Mad world and such.

They certainly have the money to get them.
These kind of joint ventures are the only way that the peripheral would be succesful, although porting the game to require the peripheral would also not be the wisest decision since it adds another 70 bucks on top.

I doubt Microsoft would use serious effort to get more games to support it until they develop their own peripheral. They will have to do with Wario-ware esque titles till now.

ya that handles aiming alright but what are you going to do for movement? unless there is a second stick you only have a limited range with the D-pad

They could always design games with movement just for the d-pad, pointing near the edge of the screen to turn or maybe even pressing an additional button is used for turning.

Kind of like the controls for GoldenEye.

I doubt they will release a noteworthy shooter for this soon anyway, they will just bring out some shovelware.

...I'm going to assume that the people have haven't realized that it's a bad April Fool's joke simply haven't read the actual article.

And besides, Microsoft don't allow third-party wireless controllers, so it can't exist. And you'd have to be quite a fool to believe the thing about the rumble-stylus mentioned in the same article.
