Am i the only one who thinks the PS2 pad is sub-par? I mean, its ok for football or whatever, but try and play SOCOM with it and you'll know what I mean.
Push the analogue stick just a bit to adjust your sights - no response. Push a little further, still no response. A little further - WHAM! the sights whizz off to the right or left. Its infuriatingly difficult to get precise control with those damn analogue sticks.
Remember goldeneye on the N64 with that controller? You could pick out a limb shot on an enemy 50 yards away it was so accurate and easy to control. There was a great sense of satisfaction playing with it. On the PS2, FPS games that dont have drastic "snap-to" targetting are all but unplayable.
