Forza Controls ...

[nick heppinstall]

One thing I'm a little anoyyed with. You would think they would give you full control on customising the joypad.

I prefer to have brake and throttle both on the right stick but thats not possible with F2. The recent Dirt demo had that option.

After a few hours racing my right finger starts to hurt using the trigger.

I know you can have the right stick as acelerate but you still have to have the left trigger as brake .....

is that really the case? I can't use the triggers, so rules it out for me

Ah well, saves me buying a 360

I never liked triggers until last night, got used to it now and think its great. You can balance the throttle in a corner and trail brake into bends, couldn’t do this with buttons without tapping them which unsettles the car a bit in most games.

Ah, I should explain, I have limited dexterity in my hands, so I can't use them, it's not just a preference thing. I even drive my car with a joystick

Until three months ago had only ever used Playstation controllers. Initially I found the triggers rather awkward. Now I'm used to them I find you have much greater graduated control than the Playstation thumb sticks.
