Apr 4th 2006 11:02PM (Engadget)A way they could solve the problem of the battery dying and being left with only plain glass could be solved if they didn't use plain glass on the front of them. Seems kinda obvious, donchathink?
And it *would* be kinda cool to be able to play video games on these glasses. :P
Xbox 360 Controller for Windows: great hardware, weak software [Update 1]
Apr 4th 2006 5:56PM (Joystiq)It's true that game developers could have possibly thought it out better, or maybe the drivers could come with a handy TXT file explaining what numbers correspond to the buttons(the latter is more feasible), but don't complain about problems that exist for all controllers and single them out as a problem for only one. Even normal PC gamepads have troubles when it comes to developers programming numbers that don't match. The only real solution is for drivers to work more like some joystick drivers in that you can configure the buttons outside the game using tools designed for the controller which then forces the game to conform to your settings without you having to figure out what buttons the numbers correspond to.
Also, why is it such a problem for you to not be able to use only the controller to configure the buttons? Oh, no! You have to click a button with your mouse and THEN press a button to assign it! Ah! Don't touch the scary mouse or keyboard! You must touch ONLY the controller!
Please. You're dealing with a PC, so don't complain when you have to use it like a PC.
