Very awkward placement of the analog stick - you can use either the stick or the buttons, never both at the same time. I don't believe any of the mainstream handhelds or console controllers have had this arrangement, probably with good reason.
- cgyulay 14y agoOur design feelings were that the camera/look controls (right analog stick) generally need to be tighter than movement (left d-pad). Almost every standard controller places buttons on the same side as the camera/look analog stick. We would, though, still like to provide analog input for directions, too.
- hartror 14y agoYeah I rewatched the sections with the guy playing it and it seemed the hand positions weren't comfortable. But hard to tell with the shots in the video and without getting one's hands on it.
- ihuman 14y agoDoesn't the Xbox 360 controller have this? On the left, there is an analog stick (and d-pad), and on the right is an analog stick and 4 buttons.
- aaronbrethorst 14y agoThe 360 controller also has triggers for your index fingers.
- kristaps 14y agoYes, and this allows you to use an analog stick and the buttons at the same time, unlike here.
