Trivia

  • Crouching in the game (necessary for finishing parts of single player depending on your play style) requires pressure-sensitive buttons like the DualShock 2 controllers have. A workaround for controllers with analog triggers (like the Xbox 360 controller or the Logitech F310) is by swapping the L2 or R2 with the stance changing button (by default Triangle) and pressing the trigger halfway.
