  Allard: I thought of Revolution controller first
Time: 14:37 EST/19:37 GMT | News Source: E-Mail | Posted By: Byron Hinson

Xbox corporate VP J Allard has criticised Nintendo's "freestyle" Revolution controller, claiming that he had a similar idea which was rejected after consultation with gamers and developers. Speaking to US website Gameinformer, Allard said the controller was "Well intentioned" but argued that he couldn't see it being used to play sports or racing games. "I don't think most Electronic Arts games are going to be played with that thing, I think they're going to be designed for the classic controller," he added. "Four years ago I wrote an email treaty and said, 'Why aren't accelerometers in remote controls? Why can't I scroll down my channel guide with a gesture instead of up, up, up, up?"" Allard revealed.
