Controller is very xbox like....... Though i like the idea of the media controls on the bottom of the controller, would make it easier to play music, change songs etc while playing games. |

Lol the buttons L I V E, couldnt use ABXY or Square, triangle, X or O Wonder if this is any good, I kinda hate subscriptions for games though, in the end you have nothing to show for it, or to be able to re-sell on to other people. Controller doesnt look that comfortable in the palm of your hands. |

Better than PS3 controller, ye gads that fucker gives you RSI. Its made for tiny asian hands, I dont hold the triggers with four fingeres only use my index for R1,R2, L1 and L2 I assume PS3 one is made for both index and the swear fingers to rest on all 4 buttons at once? |

I don't mean the whole controller, just the Dpad (the digital pad, not the analog sticks). It looks the same as the clumsy 360 Dpad. I don't have a problem with the DualShock triggers though, other than they're curved the wrong way IMO, and your fingers can slip off. I only use my index fingers as well, same as 360. |

Never paid much attention to Dpads, tho the ps3 one reminds me of the old Nin64 ones or similar before joysticks were attached to them.. had so many sort thumbs and blisters from those days. |

For the old skool games, it's essential. Big difference in playing the old Sonic's on the 360 or PS3 IMO. Also good for fighters when I couldn't be buggered cracking out the arcade sticks. |

The appropriately named Phantom console? The concept was very similar, but this one actually exists. |

OnLive isn't a download only console, not in the strict sense. You don't download the games, you stream the images of a game you are playing on a remote server to your PC or to the above pictured "console" There are a lot of unanswered questions about latency etc. once again, Mr Leadbetter and the digital foundry to the rescue, for those interested in an analysis of the tech (should note, he initially stated a while back there was no way it would work... he's had to backpedal a bit, although still seems unconvinced); http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-onlive-beta-article |

So if the servers fuck up or internet connection is lost.....stiff shit. No gaming for you. Go outside and enjoy the real world. Stuff that, i like my consoles the way they are....physically mine, in every aspect. You'd think streaming would slow your overall connection down aswell causing even more lag for games |
