Remembe when you first looked at your xbox controller? The most obvious things you might have noted may be:
Instead of ABXY arrangement like snes controller, xbox had...BAYX.
The "select" button was actually called "back". Also, placed differently from all the other start/select controller configurations.
Now my eyebrows may be more sensitive to raises than yours, but I thought this was MS going overboard not to attract lawsuits from Nintendo or Sony for copying controller design.
For the xbox 360 controller, they just said "fuck this chickenshit nonsense", threw caution to the wind, and gave us...a Dualshock 2, painted white, crammed into an Xbox controller chassis. I mean, they barely made the perfunctory gesture to reshape the shoulder buttons...called whatever, but deep down we know they're R1/R2/L2/L2.
Contained therein is also my belief that the dualshock 2 may be the most perfect controller ever, exept for not coming in a standard wireless model. |
