Mad World Controls Revealed

Mad World Controls Revealed

Ahead of it's March release the highly anticipated Mad World is being covered in depth by many gaming publications. Out of that has come a screen that is sure to bring joy to the hearts of gamers with a lot of faith placed in Mad World, and that is that it will feature some decent controls.

Many games on Wii end up falling into the trap of overusing the motion controls when face buttons were clearly the better choice. It looks as if Mad World will avoid that. The face buttons are used for main attacks and grabs, and while their is some waggle it looks as if it will manly be used for 'uppercut' to finish off combos. Movement and jumping will be controlled by buttons on the nunchuck which will only use motion to perform a back flip.

Until we actually play the game it's impossible to form any solid conclusions, but from this alone it looks as if the balance between motion and button controls is as good as it gets for a game like Mad World.

It looks okay. The backflips should be fine on the nunchuck, and the advanced punches will probably be waggling. It's always hard for games like this to do well control wise, since there's only really two buttons instead of your average four (once you take away the nunchuck which is mostly used for misc. control). Basically, it has to use motion controls to make up for the lack of two buttons.

Backfist and Uppercut sounds good...but would that include motion to use the chainsaw?

As in, swing the Wiimote to chainsaw off somebodies top half?
