I do.

It looked so cool.

Don't you wish that the SIXAXIS was like this?

I don't miss it... it looks like a bad controller for fighting games... Then again, the current SIXAXIS isn't a great 'Street Fighter' controller either (L2/R2 buttons are the reason for this). That's why I hope one day we'll see a PS3-PS2 controller adaptor for my fighting games... 8)

I'm not sure if you are joking or not, but I really do miss it... I know I'm probably in the minority but I wished they had stuck with that design. It looked like it was pretty comfortable & would have felt good for using the tilt controls.

The boomy could have been the savior of many an angry gamer.  Imagine whipping your controller at the ground or floor to have it return to you instead of falling victim to high speed impact.

Addressing the size concerns, I remember seeing a pic of one being put into a display case at one of the E3's and it was comparable in size to the current controller, just shaped that way.

I know that personally, one reason I went for the PS2 over the Xbox was that I hated the Xbox controller and was familiar with the original PS controller.  That and I guarantee they have done ergonomic studies on it... there is a reason why XBox 360's controller feels much more comfortable to use now ;)

Oh, I see.  I was hoping the humor in my joke was the fact it was so bad. :lol:

looks kind of hard to hold with the curve on the sides. I like the way the sixaxis is set up.

Personally I wish they would've given it a shot.  Something new could've been interesting, especially if it worked out well (I'm sure they didn't just pull the design out of thin air).  However, you can't beat the DualShock/Sixaxis.  There's a reason they're the best controllers ever.

I'd so glad they dropped this boomerang/banana idea. (I can't spell banana). It didnt' look all that practical and it looks like it'd be awkward getting up to the shoulder buttons. Though I do have some problems with the Sixaxis. 1. No rumble. 2. What's up with the L2 and the R2 buttons just kind of chilling there without a bottom base. I always hit it by accident with the way I hold a controller and it goes toward me funny. Don't know how to describe, but I dislike it.

How can we miss something that we never really seen in person?
