I might buy that keyboard and mouse adapter for the 360 just so I don't have to suffer dual analog.

Wiimote if it were cheap enough. It's basically the only game I think that works well with the Wiimote (so far), and I wouldn't spend more than $20 for a controller for 1 game.

Otherwise, a regular dual analog gamepad will suffice. It got me through RE4 on pro, it'll get me through RE5.

Example to prove my point. THe ps2s graphics were fine last gen, so the ps2s graphics should be fine this gen.

That's a damn poor example.

Graphics should improve with generations. That's an obvious thing. I would not be fine with PS2 graphics on this game.

Controllers shouldn't improve? Wanna play RE5 with a NES controller? ;)

Anyway, you've made it clear you'd prefer to stick with normal controls. Your answer is given.

Nothing wrong with improvement, but I didn't have a problem playing it with the PS2 and GC controllers, I was able to get 95 percent+ accuracy on all of the levels with analog sticks, they've done me just fine.

I mean, it'd be nice to try it out, and I do plan on buying RE4 for the Wii, but for right now the regular controller works just fine for me.

I was fine with the PS2 controls of the game, so I'd be fine with the PS360's normal controllers of the game.

Why fix something that ain't broken?

So controls shouldn't advance either? Tell me why this is so.

Controls should advance. I'm not saying that they shouldn't. I did fine with the regular analog controls, having to learn a new control scheme for a game I've gotten accustomed to may throw me off my game. As my accuracy with the analog sticks, I don't see the point in throwing a wrench in the plan to control a game 'better' when I control just fine the way I was.

I wanted to reply to your post, but instead I'm going to heed your order and go back to playing games on my Spectrum ZX80. Sorry, I didn't get the Internet connection working there yet, and I don't know if there's a Firefox version for that.

Then that is you who doesn't want to benefit from new controls because it takes 10 minutes to get used to them, but once you do you wouldn't want to go back. I started with pc controls and can't stand playing fps,tps or any first person game using dual analog anymore.
