| TheSteve said: You guys that are defending SixAxis by naming a single forgetable part of a handful of games are actually making the OP's point for him. I hope you're trying to be ironic with your "there's one power in InFamous that uses it!! It totally couldn't have been done with the analogue sticks!! What about when you walk on the log in Uncharted!!! Or those two shooting segments in Heavenly Sword (which, admitedly, were fun...)!!" It was pointless, tacked on, and often less functional then simply doing it with the analogues either in games with that option or in the 360 version of the game. |
I certainly agree, that in the beginning it felt very tacked on, and it was pretty much just useless.
But since then, there have been several games that actually had good use of it, whether you like it or not, and the point we're making, is that this will probably continue to happen.
Yes, all those things could have been done with the regular controller options, but what argument is that, when the Sixaxis has done some of these things better than the regular controls would?
Therefor, no it isn't just dead weight any more. There are actually games out there that make good use of it, and improves the game by using them.
