Announcement about the PS3 sticks announcement plz

i think the pad is underestimate.
the problem here is, we dont have the skill with it. its just a signal input device. racing games are a prime example. The really fast guys tend to use controllers not wheels. a Wheel is great for someone who is intermediate level, but if you want to top the time sheets, youd better learn to master the controller.

Isn't it about, what is most enjoyable to use ?

Agreed it is much easier to drift in Gran Turismo with controller than a wheel, but a wheel is so much funner, it's all about realism and personal preference. I love my Logitech G-Force Pro!

Maybe he got overwhelmed by the amount of whining on these forums since release, and went off and got drunk

Seriously though, yes there are a number of issues.. but some of them must've been repeated dozens of times in the last week, and Anton has even mentioned they are looking to fix some of the multiplayer bugs already, plus this joystick announcement. Perhaps he shouldnt have said there would be an announcement soon (especially not suggesting the next day), maybe they are looking at a number of issues reported on here, and don't want to announce anything until they know exactly what will be changed, which cant be quick to do with the development and QA processes to go through.
