CVG-Hands on Xbox One controller

CanYouDiglt · 2013-05-27 04:09:07

LinkEssentially, Microsoft has increased the number of force feedback motors in the Xbox One controller, allowing for more subtle rumble in localised parts of the pad. In one FPS-style demo we played, a virtual hand held out a pistol. Firing the pistol with the controller's right trigger resulted in simulated recoil occurring on just that part of the controller.In another demo, which had the same virtual hand magically spawn a fire ball, we could 'feel' the explosive projectile explode from the centre of the controller and out towards your fingers. It was an impressive effect.Other demos better showed off the feature's application as a gameplay enhancement. One allowed us to start the engine of a supercar with the Y button, causing the Xbox One controller to cough and splutter realistically as the virtual engine sparked to lifeIn another section showing a close up of the vehicle's wheels, the controller pulsed to simulated bumps in the road surface, and then violently clanged as the anti-lock breaks kicked in. I personally thought the 360 controller was far and away the best controller last gen. I used it for the 360 and the PC and personally hated whehen I had to use the Dualshock because I much prefered the 360 controller. From what I have read the design and the feel are the same for the most part but there are a lot of added improvments.

Improving upon perfection? Only with Microsoft.
Still kinda wish they went the WiiU route with a tablet controller though.

Nintendo already improved on the 360 controller with the Wii U Pro controller; It fixed the D-pad and moved the analog sticks up.

But dat lack of analog triggers for it ... =(

Also, I feel the placement of the analog sticks are perfect on the 360 controller. It looks kinda awkward having both sticks sitting at the top of the controller. Can't argue with the Dpad.

It's prob tied to your console so you cant trade it in or sell.

The X1 controller looks comfortable but I JUST bought a new 360 one for my PC. (Damn dog chewed on the cables) So if the X1 is incredibly comfortable, I'll end up buying it later on in the cycle.
