I want one, too. It does look strange but awesome.I really want to try it. I guess it does work great!Can i just buy one now?
The Steam Controller is designed to work with all the games on Steam: past, present, and future. Even the older titles in the catalog and the ones which were not built with controller support. (Weve fooled those older games into thinking theyre being played with a keyboard and mouse, but weve designed a gamepad thats nothing like either one of those devices.) We think youll agree that were onto something with the Steam Controller, and now we want your help with the design process.
Who needs sticks when you have haptics? Couldn't you create "virtual" analog sticks? I mean, it seems irrelevant to me.
If Valve is announcing it, that means they have play tested the shit out of it and know it's going to work like it should. Valve builds and tests new hardware constantly, spends million building shit, trying it out, and then dumping it when it doesn't do what they want. If they're confident enough to announce and show this off, I'm in.
How the fuck do you press the X and Y button without taking your thumb off the left track pad??
Yep... fuck that noise.
I really don't understand.... why creat a gimped controller then have to design ways to overcome you gimping it. Haptic feedback is a bandaid at best.
Dual touchpad? I can guarantee i am going to hate it.Except it is broken. Some PC games absolutely require a mouse and keyboard and some work best with a controller. If this is able to consolidate both of these then that is a good thing, no?
I don't need hands on to know if it's for me.You've had hands on? Wow! Please post your impressions!
I want a controller that works on all Steam games (like this), but that doesn't suck for the kind of games I buy on Steam (not shooters or RTS).Guess what, it's a PC, you can use any controller you like. This is just another option. A lot of gaffers are stuck in the console locked in mindset.
Get ready to laugh!
I was thinking the same. How do you play a fighting game with this?

Steam controller = God Tier
Still better than analog sticks.
Can honestly say, not at all interested unless there are sticks. Don't care how accurate or tactile the touch-pads are - I don't see myself migrating to a stick-less future anytime soon.
