I was really intrigued by Sony redesigned Sixaxis controller, or what is now known as Dualshock3 for their Playstation3 system. For one thing, they designed the bottom two shoulder buttons (L2,R2) to function more like trigger buttons whereby you actually press the buttons downwards rather than inwards. Up until now, i never really got a chance to try out these button as the games i played never really put them to good use. That is until i started playing Lost Planet over this long weekend break i'm enjoying.
In Lost Planet, the top two shoulder buttons (L1,R1) are used to align the character focus either 90 degrees to the left or right while the bottom two shoulder buttons (L2,R2) are free up to fire your primary and secondary weapons. Very practical though unusual setup of controls, it functions pretty well but the same goes the Gamecube shoulder buttons is that i can never tell the difference between pressing the button completely and lightly pressing it.
Kinda defeats the purpose doesn't it?
