[quote name='wasabi5858']I feel it is easier with mouse, targeting, drawing boxes etc etc. I hooked up a controller thinking it may be better but it wasn't... for me.[/QUOTE]
A friend of mine had the same reaction. I, personally, enjoy using the 360 gamepad for even the box-drawing. It really isn't bad at all, but, I guess that's just me.
Either way, full recommendation for Trine; Go grab it.
