i just got dead space 2 but i'm so disappointed

Consoles are a very different matter for patches but new games should be doable but patches cost a lot of money and time cos they go through ms or sony for the nodd its passed checks.

I know that is why my petition I'm asking developers to commit to having the feature. ultimately ms & sony should just add it to the console os.
 
I just want to say thank you gareth for pointing this out you got the attention of developers the thing i wanted from the get go. Now I see this effects the PC gamer as much as the console gamer.

This developer has and is committed to remapping I will be doing a dual com with him soon. Keep on gaming I'll keep OC.uk filled in on what goes down at pax. I'll talk to any PC developers I meet about this topic where i might have skipped them before now.

Thanks everyone for the signatures

Here is a video where I talk about button remapping (not my channel) LOL HOW DO I ADD LINKS TO UTUBE?

It's great that so many people are contacting publishers, developers and magazines etc. I'll be around lunch time today so if there's anyone with an idea or would like me to send emails then I will only be too happy to do so. :) Probably best not to repeat someone elses effort by contacting a website or publisher that already may be on the case. :)
 
Gareth, just came in here to say, I have nothing but utter respect for you for your dedication to gaming and sheer brilliance in continuing to game such a way. You are truly a role model to all.

I saw this linked at the GAF and was shocked to see it sourced here, a uk forum I frequent and my usual stop for PC parts. Sort of made it feel that much more amazing a read.

If you're ever in London and need help of any sort, or just a guide to show you around the city for the day, just drop me an email as it would be my pleasure!

Take care dude, and all the best to you in future!

Out of curiosity has anyone tried contacting Microsoft? (Bare with me on this!)

I'm asking because of the Games for Windows label, which has a set number of prerequisites of a game in order to hold that label. It might be possible to persuade Microsoft to include custom mapping of controls as one of those demands.
 
Quite unbelievable the response this thread has had since I it started. I somehow missed the petition so that is has now been signed.

Respect to you two Gareth and Chuck. Lets hope VisceralGames follow through on their promise !

Awesome. :D

This news provoked a number of smiles in our office just now. :)
 
Great news! Maybe now developers will think more about accessibility issues for disabled gamers, plus of course us lefties can rejoice that we might be able to use the arrow keys or numpad instead of WASD :)
