Am I the only one who thinks that a touch screen controller for a system that hooks up to my HD tv is a bad thing? I'll reserve final judgement until I see what actually comes out and how it's going to work, but my first thought was "Why would I look down at my hands to see what is going on on a screen the size of my phone when I have a 65" television that I'd rather be watching the game on?" Doesn't this sound like one of those ideas that sounds better than it will actually work?

No, I think it is genius and it's going to bring back local multiplayer in a big way and be cool as fuck for games with menu systems.

As long as they use it to augment the game it is going to be wicked as shit.
