Re: [Audyssey] commenting on the phillips game controler.
Wow, I had no idea iether. I still have ps2 and gamecube controllers lieing around somewhere. I actually have a pc controller, but never have got it to work. I love the idea of the retractible USB cable, so I think I'll just go snatch one of these suckers up and carry it with me and my netbook so I can play RR on the fly. contact details: email: tcwoo...@shaw.ca and others msn: the_conman...@hotmail.com skype: the_conman283 system details: Hp pavillion dv5220CA notebook pc AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology ML-37 2.0 GHZ, 1024 mb DDR ram, Fujitsu 100 gb 4500 RPM Hard Drive, connecsant AC-link audio - Original Message - From: "Lukás Hosnedl" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2009 6:41 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] commenting on the phillips game controler.

Hi To all, from Ron and Boz. I finally got a chance to pick up the Phillips hand held game controller model sgc2909. The controller looks like this. With the unit facing you. You have the cable plugged into your usb connecter and it is on the top of the unit. There are two flat buttons to the left of the cable one button to the back and there is one directly under that button. Then across the top of the controller to the right of the cable on the right hand edge of the unit are two more buttons and they're located just like the two buttons on the left side of the connection cable. One button above another button. Maybe DJC AKA Don can tell us what these four buttons are and what their functions are. Now looking at the face of the unit. The best way to describe the unit is that we have a left column of buttons, a center column of buttons and a last column of buttons on the far right hand side. Lets take the far left buttons first. These four buttons are your basic four directional buttons. They're triangle shaped buttons. You have your up arrow, which is at the top. Diagonally from this button about three o'clock is the right arrow button, then at the six o'clock is the down arrow button, then at the nine o'clock is the left arrow button. Now we come to the center. You'll feel a slight bubble, this is the visual display. Just to the left is the escape key and to the right of the display is the enter key. Now if you find the display bubble as your center,Just below the display is a group of four buttons in a diamond like shape. The top button is just under the display . This button is the digital analog mode button. I don't think we'll want to play with this button to much. I could be wrong on this since I'm still learning the unit myself. But if you keep coming down from that button you'll see nothing then if you go down a little further, you'll run into another button. This button is the game mouse button. If you get back in between these two buttons, you'll see a button to your left and a button to your right. This makes up the diamond shape of these four buttons. Maybe DJC could refresh my memory on these buttons once again. This takes care of the center column of buttons. Now we come to the far right hand side of the unit.

Hi Ron, Cool! I'm glad to hear that you got your game controller. 67 kills in Puppy 1 eh? Not bad! Playing with a joystick is a bit different and takes a bit of practice doesn't it? I think that it is more fun than with the keyboard though. However I still score better with the keyboard in Puppy 1 in expert mode. BTW I am driving laps in Mach 1 tts. It is just barely working now. Still lots of work, sounds and things like the brakes to put in. But I like it with the steering wheel and peddles etc. BFN Jim ...
