Completly agree with him. I hate it when people try and claim that bad controls are actually just hard to master. Of course they are hard to master, they are bad controls. I managed to become pretty good with Red Steel's controls, however they weren't meant to be hard to master they just sucked.
The fact that threads have shown up with videos as proof the game controls well is ridiculous. You could probably find a video on the net of someone completing Battle toads without getting hit, yet you wouldn't say it was evidence that BT was an easy game.
