[QUOTE="Slam23, post: 238549, member: 896"] Nope, no controller here. Only time I have ever used one was for playing NBA 2K games, before that I was a keyboard PC guy all the way back to actually an Apple IIe. I'm so used to touch nudging on iPad that I probably will not pick up any more PC TPA and portability is way too important for me. We actually had a discussion a while back in some thread about potential differences in degree of difficulty across platforms and why they were there. It centered on analog micro-nudging below the tilt treshold with controllers on PC/console versus mobile where that's just not possible.
