Lol doesn't mean it makes the 360 controller the best. I'm sure they could just as easily use a ps3 controller. Lol fly a real helicopter with sixaxis :D

Yes their thumbs would slip off the rounded thumbsticks of the sixaxis and their fingers would constantly be slipping off the flakey triggers that they got on it..

 

i must say that they would have slippy hands because that does not happen with me,and the majority of people

 

Yeah i suposse its possible to get used to it eventually...people would be able to get used to a rock tied to a stick if they had too :P

 

 

this is not true,people dont get used with that mediocre d-pad of the 360,

it is impossible to play fighting games with it

Hardly lol!!  You can make anything work to a point, granted you may be jumping when ya wanted to punch (or whatever you use the d-pad in those types of games) but no biggie, you'll end up just having to retry a few more times than usual to beat certain parts. Gives more of a challenge

Who plays games using a Dpad anymore? lol. I would actually think a PS2 controller would be easier to use since it is an analog output. Mainly because most applications of this sort use Pbasic coding. From what little I know about Pbasic coding , it doesn't support digital inputs, just analog, but I suppose that since this is the army, they have a software program running the things, in which case the 360 controller would be the better choice.

it could be true,but is hard to believe that without some link

 



Use power for the right things. At least for the things that you believe in.

it makes sense, Pbasic coding is widely used in partially/fully autonomous applications, and most hardware configurations for Pbasic are analog.

You'd think they would use a mouse for better accuracy....

I don't think  mouse aiming could be implemented by a robot arm



Repent or be destroyed

After trying to play Lair and Warhawk that way I think controlling a multi-million dollar piece of hardware with a sixaxis would be a very bad idea.
