I also loved the original "Resident Evil" but I sucked at that too. Funny thing was, my x wife refused to play that game at night in the dark.

I grew up on one joystick and a fire button. I don't get how players today handle 5 billion buttons on one controller.

The buttons can be overwhelming, but with my handicap, I can manage games with a controller where all the controls are centralized that I can't manage using mouse and keyboard.

A particularly frustrating thing is games that assign zooming in and out to the scroll wheel without options for reassigning.  I use a trackball without a scroll wheel because of my handicap.

If you remember the famous story of the octopus escaping it's enclosure and snaking down the drain. THAT is whom you want playing video games. If you had to depend on me escaping the Nazis, I we'd all be fucked.
