      Gyro aiming. Take thumb off the stick to temporarily disable it so you can reset the orientation of the console. Probably other things, idk kojima for example loves using all the features of the controller (infamously using the variable pressure sensitivity of the playstation controller thumbsticks when holding guards in the metal gear series, for example).

        All I can think of is how gimmicky controls like those just make things annoying to emulate down the line

          Gyro aim isn't going away. It is a permanent replacement for the boomerific halo-style console FPS controls.
