        That sounds like something that is trying to make up for the severe   
   limitations of the PS2 and Xbox controller's button responsiveness.   
   Even on the 360 I've found that buttons just don't register at the right   
   speed to the original arcade or even the Genesis and Snes versions of   
   these games.  After getting my Hori 360 arcade stick, I found all of my   
   XBLA games to play the way I expect them to.  Something is wrong with   
   the buttons of these newer gamepads.
