It's an odd controller, but I'll hold my opinion until I see how it actually works..

Hmm, interesting design. I have to hold judgement until I actually try it though...or somebody chokes on it.

Crash · 09-15-2005, 11:20 PM

a remote ****ing control? no wonder they said "wireless!"

Well im not sure if any of you have read IGN's article yet, but if you have you know how it works. I think its safe to say Crash was actually somewhat close with his one design of holding two joystick like things...but still off by quite a bit. Man, this will be interesting, no doubt. I just hope it catches on. My only complaint so far is lack of buttons...

Crash · 09-15-2005, 11:26 PM

i think it's only meant to be one

turn it sideways and you get

Dyne · 09-15-2005, 11:34 PM

Wow. Neat.'

Well it definitely ties in with the sexy design.

I think it's an interesting idea... It'll be interesting to see how Rev will hold up against PS3 and 360, what with their more traditional controllers and all...

My main little thought after seeing it all is won't it be kind of tiring (mostly on the arms) to use over long periods of time? Specifically First Person Shooters, which would require you to point it at the screen the entire time (and be fairly accurate with it to boot)...

You could simply say "Take frequent breaks"... Now try telling that to a hardcore gamer who's in the zone... :>
