Forums - Microsoft - Hmmm...Resident Evil 5 and 360 controller....have you guys.....

I thought I saw a news article in the last couple of weeks in which Capcom said it did not have any intention of putting in motion controls.

But then again, I think that was about PS3's infamous motion sensing.

However, it does not make sense to have to program two separate control schemes.

I am Mario.


I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Well, I have played FPSs on both the Wii and 360 and can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that if I were to use dual analog and someone else were to use something like the WiiMote, I would handidly win. Mouse and keyboard is another story. They did not increase enemy count for the Halo 1/2 ports for PC and the control scheme there was different. Then again I could not stand the pc controls on that game. Something about how they handle momentum with your movement is different than pc games. I think it is because of the fact that either you are pressing the 's' key or your not, there is no degree for speed of movement. Let me stop rambling now.

What wii games did you play? Did you play re4?

 



I played Metroid, CoD, and Medal of Honor.  The WiiMote works excellent for that on rails Resident Evil shooter game though.



This is kind of off topic, but what the hell is up with the Wii owners who act like they can't go back to analog controllers? I hate to tell you, but that is what you have been using for every generation before this one.

I have played with both setups on all kinds of games and I really don't think either one is that much superior to the other. If anything motion controls are more finicky, albeit a well-implemented motion control scheme does work pretty well.

I honestly have more problems with the IR pointer than anything else, which is why I wouldn't want to play a Resident Evil game with motion controls. I had to turn it off on Twilight Princess it was messing me up so much. And don't give me any bullshit about me having to get used to it. The point of motion controls is that they are supposed to be intuitive, not a hindrance.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.

I never ever could get used to dual analog. * mostly a pc gamer last gen* and I always play my fps on the pc, or now the wii.

If you are/were predominantly a PC gamer, I can see where you are coming from.

I call BS on that claim, it's much faster to aim with a IR controller.

Unfortunately, this is probably not something we can test.

I thought about that possibility. I even created a thread asking PS3/360 owners if they'd prefer using standard controls or RE4:Wii like controls:

http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=30694

 


There's really no contest. Anyone who has actually beaten the game with IR pointer, won't want to go back to the analog stick. However, if capcom doesnt' give us the option, I'll play it however it is released.

 

...but no doubt pointer is better.

None of them in that thread even explained why except two people. And both of their problems with the wiimote could be fixed.

 

I posted in that thread and explained my postion and my problem cannot be fixed if you are using a wii-mote/nunchuck set-up.
