I spent roughly 10 minutes with the final Steam Controller at GDC 2015 (http://www.engadget.com/event/gdc2015/articles/), playing snippets of Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, The Talos Principle and Unreal Tournament on various Steam Machines (http://www.engadget.com/2015/03/03/new-steam-machines/). The body of the controller is wonderful to hold. Two long, clickable pads running along the backside of the handles, right where a player's middle and ring fingers lie, would be a welcome addition to any existing gamepad. Plus, the final controller adds a single analog stick on the left side. This makes the design more familiar overall, but with a trackpad replacing a second analog stick, the final Steam Controller remains what it always has been: awkward.
