"GC Controller?"

Does it have a rumble pack, I can't find any specs on it so does any one know?

coz it sounds better. i would have just been called afro but this other idiot copied me with the name afro. i know he copied me because he is my friend and refuses to change his name. and he did sign on after me.

Why the change of name, Afro?

Talking of racing games, in issue 59 of N64 magazine, there's 2 screenshots of 'Car Combat' - a vigilante 8-inspired racer. It was being by Retro Studios but has been canned. Shame, the game featured gorgeous graphics and was supposed to be a launch title. Now what Gamecube racer (a racer involing cars that is) do we have to look forward to at launch? Do you see?

do you reckon them tilt games work in cars, haha, go round a roundabout and you just can't make it turn, lol.

ninty have already made a kirby game that will use a tilt censor for the game boy color and more tilt censor games are on their way for game boy advance. diddy kong pilot is one of them.

Yeah but I remember back in an issue of NOM that Nintendo were working on some kind of tilt feature in the controller

Ne1 else remember this?

I think that the PS2/Gamecube/Xbox controllers all naturally evolved to the 2 analogue sticks, 4 buttons, 1 d pad and shoulder buttons.

It's the natural and new standard for controller design.
Nintendo tried out an analogue stick with the N64.

Sony copied it but looked at current games using an analogue stick and looked at what control set up would benifit them more.

And so we got the modern controller.
It's good that they're all the same because it means that games can easily be transported between systems making conversions easier.

It also means that when Capcom and Sega start making games where Xbox, GC and PS2 owners can battle each other, no console will have an unfair control advantage.

Sony are very innovative, parappa the rapper, fantavision, but in terms of controllers i think the dual shock is by far the best. The dreamcast had triggers but who brought us 256 levels of pressure sensitive buttons (all of them) mmm.

Wireless controllers ha i have some "acclaim" infa red controllers for my nes and they're the first wireless controllers to my knowledge but alot of third party hardware developers have taken up the idea but a wire is the fastest for data transfer and far more responsive.

The wirebird i think it's called for the gamecube uses a wavelength to transmit data but rumor has it Sony are working on a force feedback controller which obviously GT3 fully supports already, mmm never seen that on a console controller.
