360 Controller Demo

Don't you hate it when you have a little demo that you're thinking of releasing and someone comes around and and does basically what you wanted to do, only better? How 'bout if it's a whole lot better?

Well, Paul just did that to me with his 360 Controller Test sample app. He took his original app (which used C#, MDX, XInput & Windows Forms) and converted it to XNA in a few hours. It gives graphic feedback of the controller state and makes it rumble when the triggers are pulled.

On the upside, it means that I can focus on other things instead of polishing and wrapping up my code...

  Ew, this happens all the time. I was going to write one, too. Better yet, though, I hadn't actually started on mine. :)
