CVG http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=147127 is reporting that two new 360 pads have been sent to developers.

Personnaly i'm quite happy with the controller as is (except for a couple of live arcade games, scramble level five arrrrrrrrrgh Evil or Very Mad and pacman). It looks like this is just for a football game and they are trying to make it as playable on the 360 as the PS2.

I hate using the PS2 controller i think it's one of the worst designed pads ever, two small and the analog sticks are two close together.

That would be nice to have a few more options that for sure. Check out this little PC hybrid eltsha. Personally I think the 360 controllers could use a little tweak such as the rubber grips on the side and contoured thumb areas for a better grip.

Only thing I don't like is the D-Pad on this controller, looks cheap.

I agree with the comment about the d-pad, but is that a "TURBO" button, what would you use that for.

Yup thats a turbo button. Razz The only thing i've ever used a Turbo button for was to cheat, going waaaay back to the Megadrive. Embarassed

They normally allow you to repeat a button push at high speed just by holding it down, thus allowing you to sometimes fire at extreme rates. But we don't need one of them. Smile

The megadrive Smile that brings back memories, i remember when i first seen VR racing on it, i was gobsmacked. I cancelled an order i had on a game and slaped down the extra ££ there and then to own that game.

Ah, I played a lot of Doom on there myself, along with Alien vs Predator. I miss that game!
