Now that's just plain odd... I wonder what playing a GameCube game with that would feel like...

Interesting... it's kind of hard to see in that picture, though. I'd like a closer view of that thing.

I figured as much.

I'm sure you'll let me know when there's a better picture of it [/Jedi Mind Trick]

Well, you and I are capable of different mind tricks. And I'm not about to try any of the mind tricks I think you're talking about...  :shock:

That is probably the most interesting controller I've ever seen.

Yes, it is quite interesting. Makes me want to go and get it if it weren't for the cord...

Yeah, cords are now officially icky. They used to be a pain but with the coming of the Wavebird, they've become icky. Although I will give Microsoft credit: the cord on the Xbox controllers is pretty long.

I like how the Xbox controllers also have the breakaway cords. How many times have you had your system toppled onto the ground from some moron pulling too hard on a controller?

Yeesh. They sure are going all-out on that controller. I guess that's a definite must-have for RE fans.

really cool lookin, i'd like to demo such a thing before actually buying it though.  I'm testy with a gamecube controller as it is, being a ps2 guy, so id be interested to see how intuitive the play is.

Ya, I'm curious to see how well it works to actually play with the thing. It looks rather unwieldy. My guess is that while it's technically functional, it's more meant to be a display piece.
