GameZone writes: "Activision's Tony Hawk RIDE promises to be a breakthrough title in the franchise, not only because of the new controller but due to the family nature of the game. Over the past weekend, Activision hosted a family-oriented event to show off the new title. Media and their families where invited to attend and GameZone was there. GZ Editor Michael Lafferty brought along his daughters, Maggie (15) and Emma (13), and the girls were given an opportunity to chat with Tony Hawk about his new game."
No one wants to use these wonky game controllers. No one.
Never say no one. There’s always going to be someone who’s contrarian who’s gotta say they’re actually a fan of one of these
i had the jaguar and cd32 and yeah, their stock controllers werent all that. They got the job done but there were better ones. The 6 button jag controller felt better to hold and incorporated more sculpting for the hands and fingers to reach the number pad easier. And the competition pro cd32 was like a genesis controller in shape and comfort. Way better than the stock one.
As for kinect, it worked, it was fun but i liked the non gaming uses for it. some people got pretty creative with reverse engineering that thing.
The Ouya controller was incredibly poor. Looked nice but quality of doad buttons triggers was that of a cheap knockoff you get for £1.99 on ebay
Looking back at gaming history often throws up some questionable things - including awful games, bad consoles, and terrible peripherals.
That intel wireless gamepad was the inspiration for the 360 wireless racing wheel (and that works really well). I'd say one the author forgot would be the activator from sega.
It's amazing that there are so many different kinds of video games, but there are certain ones that will leave you looking pretty silly.
