Don’t really want all the junk just want Capcom to make a good game.  I hope they don’t over utilize the Kinect sensor for controlling.  I’m turning 37 and I don’t want to have to wave my arms move my feet jumping all over the place like a moron.  I hope they have normal game pad controls and use the Kinect for all added controls.

@killerchameleon I hope so too. They will, hopefully, include a normal control scheme.

I wish that they were just re-releasing the original controller upgraded for the 360.

Me too. I'd kill to hook that thing up to MechWarrior 4/MechWarrior Online.

You know what I made a USB adaptor for the Steel Battalion controller to play MechWarrior on the PC, since the 360 uses USB I wonder if it will also work on the 360.  I ‘m going to have to dig that sucker out a try it.

I'd be surprised if it did - MS locked down the USB stack pretty hard.

I thought about it again and realized that I would need separate software to map the buttons, can’t do that on a console. :'(
