Holographic Projected Rumour Control

Posted by Zonk on Saturday April 30, 2005 @07:27AM from the help-me-obi-wan-kenobi dept.

Gamespot's always enlightening Rumour Control series tackles several weighty issues this week. Included in their analysis is the backwards compatibility of the Xbox 360, the possibility of 3D Projection from the Revolution, 360 controllers being PC compatible, and the imminent announcement of Diablo III. From the article: "RUMOR #5: Some postproduction work on Diablo III has been completed. Source: Blizzard fan site Diabloii.net. The official story: 'We'd definitely like to revisit the Diablo universe in the future, but we haven't announced any plans to do so at this time.'--Blizzard rep."

The original Xbox controllers were PC compatible, you just had to alter the cord. They were USB-based with a different plug on the end, which is easy to modify or you can buy a fairly-cheap adapter.

The Windows driver is a simple download, and it works really well. Apparently there's a Linux driver as well.

I went this route because I enjoyed the large, original Xbox controllers -- they were the first controllers that didn't feel puny in my large hands.
