Wipeout64 Setting

[Hybrid Divide]

Personally, I loved WIpEout 64. Even if most of the tracks were mirrored ports, I LOVED how the N64 analog stick controlled. I never coiuld stand using the Dual Shock.

Oh well, It's a good game, at least I think so.

The N64 controller is superior to the PS1 controller and, dare I say it, the Dual Shock (because of the position of its analogue stick).

The reason for this is that Sony made a D-pad based controller and then stuck on the analogue sticks as an afterthought, whereas Nintendo basically designed their controller around the analogue stick and stuck the D-pad on afterwards. The result is that if your thumbs are of at all reasonable size, then it's not a pain in the arse to use the stick on the Nintendo controller.

The Gamecube, Xbox and Dreamcast controllers have surpassed the N64 controller in terms of control and reliability, all with two analogue triggers each, while Sony still lives in the dark ages.

Don't even think about mentioning the PSP's useless, absurdly-positioned analogue slider thing!

Have you even played PSP before? I'll admit, the placement can be a bit weird at first, but once you get used to it, the PSP's analog NUB is FAR superior to the N64's analog stick when it comes to precision of movement. The N64 is wobbly as all hell, and I personally didn't like its placement AT ALL.

See, Normally, I love using the D-Pad. But its placement makes using the Dual Shock nearly unusuable. For example, if I have to pull back on the stick, I have to move my thumb down and to the right.

If the stick and D-Pad had swapped places, it'd be perfect.

But then 2-D games wouldn't feel right.

Perhaps 2 different controllers are in order?

hmm, I don't have these problems. but then my thumbs are really big.

This has gone way off-topic folks.

I wouldn't say that the piranha with no weapons in XL made the ship even with the others. Multiplayer, you wouldn't stand a chance in any ship in against it, so why not add weapons?, it's just a ship for fun anyways.
