'Star Wars: Squadrons' early impressions: Don't buy it for the story

On the PlayStation, the default controls assign throttle controls and rolling to the left thumb stick, while the right handles pitch and yaw. It's an unwieldy combo that led me to performing, let's say, unorthodox maneuvers instead of simply making the ship go where I wanted. I also had a tendency to spin like crazy. While young Anakin would have been proud of me, it was a little frustrating at first. One mission, which requires you to rotate your Y-wing to drop downward-firing bombs while skimming the trench-like surface of a space station, resulted in more than a few crashes.
