Pining for a look at the final design of the Steam controller like a junkie looking for a fix behind that shady goth dance club?

Looks quite good in my opinion. I'm excited about the possibilities the trackpads will offer, and its good to see they put an analogue on there as well

Said on the very first reveal that I'd like to try the feedback track pads, but I'd probably prefer a stick for the left thumb. Looks like I'll get exactly what I was looking for, so long as it's comfortable to use.

I'd best try it and find out.

I couldn't agree more. Those track pads with haptic feedback seem very promising and I'm excited to see if they can solve some of the issues I have with regular analogue sticks. Hopefully combining some of the good aspects of non-linear mouse movement with some of the advantages of a compact analogue stick design.

I had/still have an Xperia Play and even though the pads on that thing were super small (about the size of your thumb) you could still control very decently in most games (that allowed swipe controls instead of "emulated thumbstick")

I can only imagine how well this pad with proper material, haptic feedback and about 200-300% the trackpad size can do.

Im curious, can you use this controller with any game that understands basic control inputs ? trackpad movement emulation to mouse movement cant be too hard to do. Would be a bummer if this was only limited to specific/some steam games.

It's not something I'd prefer to use based on just looking at it now, but I love that it exists and what they tried to do with it.

Ill stick to xb1/360 controller thank you or ill just use a KB/m.....

edit: And the position of the abxy buttons are just gross.

Volkama4139d ago

The position of the stick and face buttons does look a bit tight. Can't really tell if they'll sit comfortably under the thumbs until you try it though.
