You mean games based pretty much entirely on motion control? Yeah those suck, with a very small number of exceptions.Eukaryote said:
I always said stuff about how you would have to keep buying new AA batteries, or how there'd be interference, and how rumble, something I practically grew up on (Star Fox 64), would be generally disabled for the sake of increasing battery life. I pointed to the Wavebird as an example of this, since at the time it was hailed as the best wireless controller ever made.Gotham Soul said:
I also made the argument about how a lack of wires was pointless, since you'd still have to be within close distance of the TV (IE, the same room) to play it, and a wire could easily reach that far anyway.
Then the Xbox 360 and its rechargeable battery packs came out, alongside the DualShock 3 which had a built-in rechargeable battery. Both had good range, little interference, the rumble still intact, and you could recharge the battery by simply plugging it into the system.
Pretty much every reason I didn't like wireless controllers was subsequently smashed to the ground.
Thumbsticks.........HATED them> growing up with a joystick and then every system having a d-pad affer atari, right up untill n64. i thought it was rubbish, and i hated it. i still use the d-pad for alot of games, but have taken a liking to it, finally......
totally agree with the fps on consoles sttement, but moreso, RTS on console. not only is the control worse, but 9 times outta 10 its a watered down version of the original game. wtf??
and to those old enough to remember.......FMV games. So glad those are done with.

Digital Distribution and Online stores On Consoles.
It's flourishing on PCs, and that makes sense. You can back up files and all that goodness. But on the console? Most normal users can't back up their consoles. Something bad happens and boom, it's all gone. That, and you can''t take it with you like you can a nice dependable Laptop.
Also, Digital Distribution on Handhelds. Except so far that's failed (PSP Go anyone?) so no surprise there. (though I hear DSiWare is doing pretty good.)
And finally, iPhone games that transcend the casual market.

You mean Red Steel 2? the first Red Steel was fired into the sun for how shitty it's controls and gameplay was.Eukaryote said:
Although I now use a cord because the (don't know the name) thing that receives signal from my controllers in the 360 is busted (doesn't function consistently) I use to be able to play 360 while on the toilet. The Tv was in the living room at one end of the hall and the toilet was at the opposite end. If I left the door open I could see the TV and the controller had the range to reach.Miles Tormani said:

That's disgusting, no different from the ads for the Wavebird, and I didn't want to hear it in the first place.StBishop said:Although I now use a cord because the (don't know the name) thing that receives signal from my controllers in the 360 is busted (doesn't function consistently) I use to be able to play 360 while on the toilet.

(Also, it's called a wireless receiver.)
