Toggles or D-pad?

Postby Mitera Nikkou » Tue Dec 20, 2005 5:25 pm

No poll stuff at video games, so I resort to using this here place of abomination! XD

Or something like that, which will remain a mystery to all and none.

Anyway, I still prefer the D-pad. For me, they're much more reliable, and accurate. I can sooner adjust pressure while pressing down than moving to the sides: with toggles, it's a quick flick for minimal and temporary movement (nothing special there that the D-pad can't handle), though it's not always reliable and maintaining minimal movement usually takes more time than needed to reach a required speed and direction. Especially if you also have to adjust the camera angle at the same time so you can see what you're doing.

If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Whatever works, works.

Given the choice, I use the D-pad. those red thumbs are a badge of honor, dagnabbit

To me it depends on what type of game I'm playing. For Example: for fighters I prefer a D-pad while with FPS games I prefer an analouge stick, so to me the control type is situational.

And whether or not I have a chance to try that out, I may prefer that one. The Swiss army knife of controllers? Hmmmm...

I can't stand using the analog stick, I got to use the d pad. most likely because i play fighting games.
