WWE '13: 10 Things THQ Needs To Fix

4. Stop Changing The Controls

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSQXUdeJ3SM Another one that just defies common sense and seems pretty ridiculous; THQ needs to stop adjusting the controls so often, because it disorientates the player and means we have to learn another set every year. Surely it would make sense to get the player comfortable with the controls and then stick to them? It's not like the gameplay has changed much throughout the series, so what is the sense in constantly changing it up? The changing of controls overcomplicates things and annoys just about everyone. It also means that going back to play some of the earlier games becomes an extremely frustrating experience. They need to be kept simple and memorable, yet even when THQ achieves this, they seem to change them the next year for absolutely no reason at all. Something so minor has seemingly simple has wide implications for the series; is this a cheap way for THQ to try and justify a different player experience every year?
