PS2 Controller

Whoa. That would rock! One problem: HOW WOULD YOU PLUG IT INTO THE FIRST INNOVATION CONTROL BOX? It would be cooler to use an X-Box controller. Not to diss the PS2(I own one), but the X-Box controller would be more ergonomic (wow, big word), but it would come down to personal taste. Anyway that would be much better than the joysticks we use now. A horror story about joysticks is in this year's Nats, we were paired up with a team and with about 20 seconds left the driver of our partner moved his joystick one way and he came up with the joystick in his hand. The joystick broke off the base and unfortunately we lost that match by one point (if we had won we would have gotten around 100 QP's!) Oh well . reffering back to my last post on this thread I didnt even scratch the surface of what 87 is doing over the break.
