You know what people don't hate enough?
PS2 racing game controls.
>Ohhhh look we have this pressure sensitive buttons gimmick so you HAVE to press the X button uncomfortably hard for the entire race. Don't even think of letting up even a little bit or you lose :^) This is necessary even though no arcade style racer has ever invented a reason to not fully accelerate
What the fuck was their problem?

This fucked me up in gt4 a lot, even if you want to control your accel its terrible using a fucking tiny button to hit a specific range of throttle. Emulating and rebinding to triggers is a lifesaver
>>

I fucked up my controller trying to win the driving mini games in the bee movie game.

>>729137632
how many racing games on the ps2 make use of that shit? just gt?
>>
I never had this problem
>>
>>729137929
could sworn the gran turismo ps2 games let you reconfigure the controls. or at the very least, i had a-spec and i swear it did

I do, as a racist video game player, this is the main reason I prefer the Xbox for playing racing games. Racing games are objectively better on Xbox over PS2 and Gamecube to a lesser extent because of the triggers. I HATE using analog sticks and pressure sensitive buttons to accelerate and brake. I've said this for 20 years across various forums.

GT1 and GT2 let you use the analog stick for throttle, so I'm guessing you could do the same for the PS2 games
>>
>>729137632
Make you able to precisely tune your jumps, to bind multiple actions on one button ( mgs3 ) and to play driving simulators ( gt3-gt4 ).
Cope.

oh and controllers lasted a long time and weren't prone to drifting issues :)
>>
You don't have to press that hard but if you weren't a newfag shitter you were already used to using the right stick from the PS1 anyways.
>>
>>729138248
You can do that in GT if you want but any normal human being is just going to use the right stick to control the gas pedal
>>
>>729138248
GT and Burnout 3 at least
It's worse in Burnout 3
