Speaking of controllers....

**Chewy** · 08-31-2004

While the debate goes on about the XBox2 controller (Reclaimer, I think you are right on that one) I was wondering about another controller.

I am going to be reviewing the new fishing game. Is there nothing better than sittting drinking beer in your underwear at 3am playing a fishing game over XBox Live with someone named Bubba in Utah? So I says to myself... "Self..." (and I knew it was me 'cause I recognized the voice) I says "Self... we need to find ourself a fishing controller like back in the Dreamcast days." I do a bit of searchin' on the internet and low and behold I find one. But $27 US is about $12,000 Canadian, so I figure maybe one of the XboxAddicts Grandma might have one purchased on for Xmas one year not knowing that most kids would rather obliterate aliens or in some people case collect new outfits. (I am still torn as to which is worse)

So does anyone actually have that fishing controller? If they do, WHY, but more importantly can I buy it off of you? Also talk about other weird/freaky controllers you have used in the past. I still remember that Coleco Vison controller that was obviously built for someone who had shares in wrist repair products. Or this one that looked a lot more like a Klingon ship than a controller for a boxing game.

p.s. - In case you hadn't decided that I am complely insane this should put the final nail in that coffin.

That's it, it is ON. I challenge all of DCC to a fishing tourny on Live. I will be forced to open up a can of whoop ass on all y'all. Anyone can play Halo, or Black Arrow, just point and pull the damn trigger, but it takes some mad skillz to land yourself an 8lbs bass.

Yay for hippy fish threads!

I like fishing for real more than in video games because you get to eat the fish.

Very true man, and I do a lot of real fishing, but there isn't a lot of fishing action at 2am. This lets me do my fishing in the warmth and dryness of my own home, within 2 seconds of my fridge loaded with ice cold 50. (For those of you in the US and other parts of the world that is quality Canadian beer that we don't let anyone know about)

But come on folks... one of you HAS to have that controller collecting dust in the back of thier closet.

While I'm out obliterating aliens and terrorists (because I'm an equal opportunity killer) I'll keep an eye out for an Xbox compatible fishing pole.

I thought it was because of my handsome good looks and charming personality?

Thanks Maxy. I just start to get some people looking at my search for the ultimate fishing controller and you have to drop a bomb in here and have everyone pass out. Thanks buddy.

*Looks at unconsious XBAers...... runs around collecting wallets.

Damn, you boyz is poor. I didn't even make it to the $27 US I need to order that damn controller.
