I have a few questions about this game, I am thinking of purchasing this [http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Run-N-Drive-Gamepad/dp/B000WHEGWE/ref=sr_1_22?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1196977578&sr=1-22] controller mainly because the controller can be mapped at will. I know that the controller does not support motion controls whic brings me to my actual question. Is it possible to use the sticks to handle aiming grenades and walking on logs etc.? While we are at it what are the button options already present in the game?

The buttons are non-configurable.
The tilt controls can't be bypassed, or at least I didn't find an option to do so. Walking on logs is alright, you can generally get across without tilting at all. Grenades are a different matter, you have to do horizontal aiming with the right stick, the tilt only controls how far you throw the grenade, but because you're already using the right stick for one half of the aiming, you tend to try and use it for the other, and end up looking at the sky. (also, the grenades are standard videogame grenades, with their one metre lethal radius, and nothing beyond taking any damage, rather than a real grenade's 15 or so metre casualty radius, really, why do they bother, they're fiddly and annoying to use and all but worthless, don't bother, except for the achievement... Oh, sorry, "medal points")

Sigh why do console players get so much contempt when it comes to configuring the controller? Didn't the dev team notice that people hated Lair because of the way they were disrespected by Factor 5? Hell don't the dev teams realize that the sixaxis/dualshock 3 is the worst possible controller design for something that uses motion sensing? T_T Thank you for the information.
