Kotaku: SixAxis Suxx On GTA 4

by Nadia on April 27th, 2008

Ah ha ha, that title is the height of clever.

Once again, Sony’s half-baked attempt to coup the Wii with SixAxis motion controls crashes and burns…quite literally. Kotaku reports that SixAxis controls bring absolutely nothing to Grand Theft Auto 4 except “frustration and burning helicopter chassis.”

Brian Crecente says:

When Mike told me that he didn’t like the SIXAXIS controls for the game, and wasn’t even able to complete the tutorial, I chalked it up to some innate hatred of the PS3’s motion controls on his part.

(…)

After playing through GTA4 on the Xbox 360, I swapped seats with Mike and settled down to get to the bottom of his SIXAXIS hatred. A few minutes into the tutorial I figured out what the problem was. The special SIXAXIS controls for this particular game suck, they’re absolutely abysmal.

The good news is that you do not need motion controls to rock Grand Theft Auto 4. Might’ve been neat if they actually worked, though.
