  Steel Battalion had an awsome controller with all those button and switches and now the irony is the second one is made for a Kinect with the selling point  to play without a controller. I'm very skeptic of SB2 as it sounds as of now  like driving without a steering wheel.


Why would that be so?,

They could have all buttons on screen,, now dont get me wrong i know all them buttons would take up alot of screen space.

But you are in the cockpit of a mach so you could just look around to find the buttons you need :D as if you where really in it.

If that makes no since im drunk -_- .

You talking about head tracking to look around and smash buttons? Head tracking does take a bit of getting use to since IRL you move your eyes more than your head while with head tracking it's the exact opposite. Some gamers don't really care for head tracking because of this.(triple screen is better than head tracking).   In another words even if it did what you say it wouldn't be as natural as a real  40 button SB controller. Just like  my example of racing without a wheel.

 Maybe the new SB will used the 40 button controller and only use Kinect for something like head tracking.
