Anyone here buy AITD for Xbox 360 and stick with it and enjoy it? Just curious if maybe its been patched for the control issues. Thanks for any advice.

I myself have considered it for the PS3. Just have'nt picked it up yet.

I bought it on release day for the 360. It is one of the most frustrating games I've ever played. The controls are bad, fighting is horrible and the camera movement sucks.

Ewww, frustrating for all the wrong reasons.

Saw the tech demo last year and had such high hopes. May pick it up when its around 10-15 bucks. And patched, if ever.

I think that's how I was suckered into the game. They spent a lot of time demonstrating the technical aspect of the game. Yeah, it's cool, but the combat controls are bad. The music and overall atmosphere to the game is great, though.

Another bad thing, for me, is when you have to combine items or create new items, it happens in real time. The game doesn't pause when your at your item screen. So, you constantly have to prepare Molotov cocktails and flaming bullets and whatever else you wish to use in between battles.

Just wait for the first driving scene! Ha! One of the most frustrating levels ever created. Glitching ground, terrible car controls. Awful.
