In Response To: Cool Xbox controller (DevilFrog)

: Anyway,I noticed a thread that mentioned different Xbox controls,and I
: thought I'd bring this trackball one I found to your attention.It does
: seem well suited for FPS games.

That's pretty cool, I'll have to check one out. Two things spring to mind, though.

First, I wonder how well it'll work with existing control schemes like Halo, and how much developers will have to do to support these sorts of controllers (and possibly the long cried for mice).

Second, it seems strange that the joystick is on the right side, and the trackball is on the left... maybe I'm just a freak, but I've always put my movement on the left, and my aiming on the right (something that has recently been reinforced by Halo).

Cool stuff, though.
