I missed the first controller, now I‘ll get this generation.
The first one was alright, but honestly felt cheap. This new one has me very interested, and I’m mildly annoyed that it seems to be getting delayed along with the other new hardware, despite not needing expensive RAM to make!
They seem to have dropped the two-stage triggers and I am NOT THRILLED.
Are you talking about them having a lockout for hairtrigger modes, or something different?
There is a detent at 100% analog, and if you pull further, it generates a button event. This is especially amazing for boost or afterburner on throttle, or e-brake on brake.
Interesting, I don’t think I’ve used a trigger with that feature before (or if I did, I wasn’t aware). Thanks for explaining.
AFAIK it is unique to the original steam controller. I don’t think the handheld has it.
Gamecube style analog triggers with a digital gate at the end
What?!
who?!!!
I’m interested in the Steam machine. Would I really need a full assembly windows PC just for gaming? I hope not.
IMO might be better to delay until new Xbox and PS6 launch for $1200 because most consumers don’t pay any attention and will think the Steam Machine is overpriced until they see next gen console asking prices.
