Sixaxis is basically useless says Kojima Productions

Ryan Payton said that in so many words, click here and read the second paragraph.

I would have to agree, because so far sixaxis has proved to be a wonky novelty at best.

never said "useless" you lying sack of potatoes :Pzeforgotten

alot nicer.. hard to work with, could be right. but controlling with the Sixaxis is easy as scratching your own.. nose.

He was clearly inferring that nobody in the industry has used it to any value as of yet. So far its been useless.

Controlling easy, thats not true, sixaxis will never be as precise as the dualsticks

it dont believe you are the one to decide if i think it's easy ;) .. Motorstorm, that game gave me so much trouble untill i started using the sixaxis. i just find it easier for some games. plus they work as they should if you don't jump around like a monkey with his tail on fire

"hard to work with" means it's hard for developers to fully utilize this function and implement it into the games right now.

but for gamers?what the heck! Who freak'n cares if the developers got issues or not?! I for one fully enjoy the usage of Sixaxis in FolkLore and HeavenlySword, period.

I guess he has not played HS yet. The Sixaxis parts are some of the best parts of the game.
Snipes from way off with the bow, that was to cool.

Butnow he can use rumble with it to, if he wants.

I haven't found a game that utilizes the Sixaxis perfectly yet but I do think it's a nice feature to have.

My only problem occurs when the game forces those controls upon us. Otherwise, it looks like something that holds a lot of promise when (not if) it is harnessed and utilized properly.

I would agree with you on motorstorm. Thats about the only game to have gotten it smooth. Warhawk its just so-so. Lair is a total disaster.

Its a feature thats available to those that decide to use it...Who cares if no one has used it to its fullest potential..

Lair is a great use of the Sixaxis and despite the poor reviews and those unwilling to take the time and use the controls it actually works well. I have beaten Lair and never once did I find my self saying I wish I could just use the analog sticks...

Sixaxis is not meant to replace the "dualsticks" as you call them...Its meant as an addition to what you can do with the controller itself.

have you ever played HeavenlySword and FolkLore? in both of these 2 games, Sixaxis has played some very important parts of the games.

Heavenly Sword, Warhawk, Folklore (only played the demo tho'). the Sixaxis works for what it's supposed to do in those games.

IIRC, R&CF:TOD will also implement some Sixaxis features into it.

So,as long as the Sixaxis stuff is not as hard-sell as Lair, it'll be good.

He is right and Lair proves that. anime-2k3

folklore anyone?

EA's Army of Two has a cool feature with the sixaxis, when you're sniping, the movement of your hands affects the characters' accuracy, so if you accidently make a slight movement with your hands, your shot might be off. (This is according to PSM's coverage of the game about 8-9 months back).

Overall, the sixaxis has yet to shine, I totally agree with Heavenly Sword, throwing/shooting objects is awesome with the sixaxis and I am one of the few that liked it in Call of Duty 3, it was fun to nudge your hands forward to melee attack an enemy.

I switch it off after the first 2 chapters and the game got so much better.

I haven't used it in any game I've played (well, apart from Resistance). I keep forgetting it's there, and when I do remember, it's usually crap anyway.

Except for the fact that Lair's controls are awesome, unless you're one of the uncoordinated people who think the game sucks.

i think teh sixaxis is best used to make games more "realistic" or just as a lil novelty. for example, in mgs4, the sixaxis could b for when your sniping, like the aiming reticle moves in the same manner your hands move or something.

Folklore

Heavenly Sword

Locoroco

These are the only 3 games so far that ive played thas made the sixaxis interesting

I thought Kojima was going to use the six axis to peer around corners when you're near one? Did they ditch that?

That sucks if they did... it was the only way I could see the Sixaxis not being "tacky"RoganSarine

My god we did thatsince MGS1 by pressing L2/R2.

someone from Konami also said Wiimote isn't precise and doesn't work well.

That's what I heard from 1up podcast.

Come on guy's....give the developers time.

What you are basically saying is that motion sensitive controllers suck including the wii.

i have like 5 ps3 games and not once has the six axis become useful to me.

USELESS.
