In Wipeout Fusion, I found the analog face buttons of the DualShock 2 actually hindered the gameplay, because you had to keep the X button jammed down as hard as possible to maintain maximum acceleration. I would often find my ship wasn't going as fast as possible because my right thumb had relaxed slightly. I resolved the problem by plugging in a DualShock 1.

So, has anyone had any trouble with the acceleration in Wipeout HD?
