Posted: Fri Sep 15, 2006 6:50 am Post subject: Top 10 unique game controllers |
|
|
bit-tech.net has an article about various 'add on' game controllers.
our little sg came in third (how marracas beat a guitar is beyond me)
the whole article is here
for those that dont want to read the whole thing, heres what they had to say about the sg controller:
bit-tech.net wrote: | Guitar Hero is probably the best of the actual games in this list. Packed full of detail and humour, it’s obviously a labour of love, and represents everything good about games developed by independent studios who are passionate about their product. The reason it doesn’t come higher up the list is that while well executed, there is something obvious about being a guitar hero, and designing your own controller is a golden opportunity to do something different. That, and Guitar Hero didn’t feature any Guns n’ Roses songs – something that Guitar Hero 2 is fortunately set to remedy. |

Psh. I had a Power Glove, AND used it to beat Mike Tyson. Took many tries, but it was doable. |

That thing looks like it has one HELL of a controller. Isn't it like 300 buttons or something?
And as for the maraccas game, what the hell? That looks like a unique game, but it's nowhere near good enough to be #1. Light guns FTW. _________________

Wow, I can't believe what was number one. I expect our SG to come in at 2, second to the Eyetoy because that is obviously a crazy addition to video games.
But marracas? C'mon. _________________

Best movie ever. Seen it so many times I've had the entire script memorized at one point (and possibly still do). _________________
