There's a number of reasons I don't like projectors, but especially cheap ones.
Just looking at the measly 4 buttons on there, I wouldn't be surprised if this didn't have a zoom or keystone function, 2 things that IMO are an absolute must have for any projector. Without those you are severely limited to where you can put the projector, the screen, and what size the screen can be.
Plus, bottom line is TV's always look better. Especially in a well lit environment.
@JunkRabbit You didn't just find it more precise, it is without a doubt factually more precise because it literally measures your inputs 16 times more than the triggers do.
I'm glad I'm not the only person who knows about this. Frankly it shocks me that people still use the triggers for throttle/brake in sim racing games. Even Driveclub is immensely better with the right analog compared to the Triggers.
@timson72 Not this one from what I've heard. From many opinions I really trust, WRc 7 is a massive step up over WRC 6 or 5. I played 5 and I thought it was awful. Most people did but apparently they've made huge strides in making 7.
Hopefully it'll be up to par with WRC 4 or Sebastian Loeb Rally Evo. Both of those are brilliant.
@AcridSkull If you really cared so much about analog input, you would use the right analog stick instead of triggers since the sticks are literally 16 times more precise from center to outer edge than an analog trigger.
You can see this yourself by hooking up a controller to a PC. Certain hardware testing apps will show you the position of your analog sticks and triggers as a number. Triggers only have 16 positions that get measured, sticks have 256 from center to any edge.
If anything not having analog triggers will only be a good thing for realistic racing games by forcing people like you to finally find out how much better it is to use the right analog stick for throttle and brake.
Though to be honest, in a rally racing game, it's not as important unless you're on tarmac.
It's an issue of giving as much throttle/ brake as you can without breaking the limit of traction that your tires have so it's a much bigger issue when you're driving on tarmac with racing slicks.
WRC 4 for example used Vita's non analog triggers and it worked fine.
