    Console controllers

    Hi.

    I was just thinking about how hard it is to use console controllers compared to a keyboard and mouse.

    I find the only controller i can use is the N64 one, i think this is becuase i have one, but it just seems right somehow. With the new controllers there is too much analogue stick-ness.

    In order of annoyance:

    1) Game cube - tried playing Agent underfire (the James Bond game) and the 'C' stick is impossible to use, just couldnt get the hang of it. Similer frustration to using invert mouse if you normally use normal.

    2) X-box - just too big

    3) PS (1/2) - the d-pad is too tricky for my liking, i just couldnt manaul in tony hawks. So i got whooped by my mate...

    4) Dreamcast - lovely, only 4 becuase i want the N64 one to win

    5) N64 - whoop Simply layout, control stick not too sensitive, but enough to not make it slow...

    Dont think i will ever be able to use a console controller again, as i am so use to keyboard and mouse. Have to get one and just spend days playing it

    Will

    have you tried the small xbox controllers? they are alot eaiser to use. i have pretty big hands myself and it was kinda hard for me to reach/hold the old big controller. The dreamcast and xbox controller are very similar in shape and layout
