Xbox 360 controller gets motion-sensitive

Modder Adam Thole investing about two-and-a-half weeks worth of time, he was able to put together a fully-functioning wired 360 controller with a 2-axis accelerometer -- and he makes the hack seem pretty straightforward. There are a lot of details on his site for those looking to emulate this mod, and Adam claims that he may even hack a wireless controller for version two.

is kinda funny. Just give people what they want. (5arcasm) ..while saudering rumble-mod. --jeesh

TheMART6303d ago

Hahaha

Sony pwned ones again.

So tilt & rumble don't go together? Right guys
Plus, this tilt seems to have very direct control, when I watch some Sony games in tilt, there seems to be a delay often in what you do. This guy is going to do a version 2, he might make a six-axis tilt with rumble which is very very funny

achira6303d ago (Edited 6303d ago )

lol, you have no ps3 you moron! how can you know that there is a delay ? there is no delay, i have played for example motorstorm, it functions very well, there is no delay. stop spreading lies, its obviuos that you make up things. where is your proove that you have a ps3 ?

InMyOpinion6303d ago

You don't have a Ps3 either. Did you forget that you live in Germany and the launch is'nt until march?

achira6303d ago

here is the proof, i made a video of my ps3:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=...

MissAubrey6302d ago

you secretly love The Mart dontcha? I mean you took the time to make a video just for him. LOL! dork.

TheMART6302d ago

Hahaha Achira. There are many video's on the net of the PS3 with motion games. There you can see the delays in movement and the reaction on screen.

But well I can ask the same to you. Why do you speak so much about the 360 when you don't own one???

I feel honoured that you made a video just for me. Really. And I must say: you do own a PS3.

Probably, maybe you got an empty case from the Barbie Ken lies factory to put together an own console?!?! haha

Wait what did I see in the video...

You have it connected by COMPOSITE??
Oh yeah I forgot, Sony doesn't deliver Component, HDMI or VGA cable with the 600 dollar overexpensive thing. YOU SAY WHAT? Yep you're right. True HD starts with Composite or not Achira? Playing on a oldfashion PAL CRT?

Damn man that's sad. But thanks for the nice video anyways

I hope they don't integrate tilt. It's fun when playing the Wii, but it does'nt suit the games being developed for 360. Also, the Wii controller is designed with tiltfuction in mind. The 360 pad and the Sixaxis ain't (flamebait, I know. But the fact is it was thrown in as compensation for rumble, not designed to have it from start like the Wiimote. At least that's what i feel.).

achira6303d ago

lol, ms is a joke. didnt they say "we dont need it". the same with 1080p.

ASSASSYN 36o6303d ago

But, I care not for tilt function.

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker4h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing694h ago(Edited 4h ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto10h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger889h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis1d 2h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast1d 1h ago

It's worth a play through today.

gold_drake18h ago
