You walk around with the stick. Sam moves her head and looks at one of the hotspots which is then labelled and highlighted. Pressing A will give you a close up or description or let's you pick it up, whatever is proper for that particular object. A combination of B and X will let you hold one of the things from your inventory in your hand in order to combine it with something else. Pressing the Back button will reveal all the hotspots. You can also use a circular (radar/compass) pointer to cycle through the hotspots. It's not as intuitive as the PC control scheme, but it makes sense.
Oh sloblock... And I suppose they aren't going to do a late p&c-addition either... It's not like I'm saying I won't get used to it or even find it good, I just think it's silly if there isn't even the option to go point & click.

Maybe I should just get it for both systems...

Special features: soundtrack, poker deck, postcards, poster.
Interesting. Well, mainly the soundtrack part (I have to say, I really didn't expect this to have a special edition). The poker deck is fun too, but I won't have any use for it, not that I'd dare actually take it into use anyways
