| The layout of PlayStation2's Dual
Shock 2 controller is nearly identical to that of the original
PlayStation's Dual Shock controller, which is good news for most gamers.
The main new feature is that, when the buttons are pushed, the
controller can register how much pressure is being exerted. This
adds a completely new dimension to sports, racing, fighting, and more
games. Aside from the Start and Select buttons, all of the functions are
analog for greater control, a wider variety of operations, and a more
compelling interactive experience. Two convex analog thumb pads and two
force-feedback solenoid rumblers round out the features. This controller
is also compatible with all software that supports the original Dual
Shock controller. |
