    Does that include the new "slider-style" controls? The description says there are two methods and one is much better.

    Hodapp seems to have set off a chain reaction.

    Exactly the same. It has the two on-screen virtual joysticks which is pretty bad, and then the weird digital movement/view buttons that you see overlaid in the screen shots that is even worse.

    I dunno, Hodapp seems to hate them, but the description said testers prefer them. I'm gonna wait on more opinions, there are a lot of options there so it has to be possible to get a half decent setup.

    The problem with the on-screen joystick controls is they're not smart enough to re-center themselves when you take your thumbs off the screen kind of like how similar 3D games such as Caster ( http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=314016537&mt=8 ) control. The center areas of each of the joysticks are amazingly small, which really seems to add an even greater lack of precision compared to most dual-virtual joystick shooters.

    I didn't think the controls on prey were that bad. They could have been better, but they were certainly not the worst I have experienced on the iPhone.
    Each to their own I suppose.

    I call Hodapp lying. I bought this game just now and personally I don't think the controls are that bad, along with all the options there's no WAY it could be bad.

    ...Did that push you over the edge?

    EDIT: Jesus like 10 posts came up before I sent it! That was to 'ImNoSuperMan' and BTW, I don't even own it.

    I wouldn't say lying... maybe an evil joke... or he just has different preferences to other people.

    The controls in Prey were fine, the game itself sucked. Just waiting for more impressions on this...

    Ugh; just got it. The controls are terrible. Other than that; its a great game. The analog stick is nothing like Minigore or Wolfenstin.
