360 CONTROLLER VS Ps3 CONTROLLER!!

I SAY 360 CONTROLLER IS IS THE BEST

I CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE CAN PLAY WITH THOSE ANCIENT UPDATED PS1 CONTROLLERS THEY USE FOR THE PS3.

WHEN PLAYING A SHOOTER OR A RACING GAME YOU HAVE TO REaCH YOUR THUMBS WAY OVER ITS SO UNCOMFORTABLE AND THE DESIGN FOR THE PS3 CONTROLLER IS HORRIBLE.

They updated what they needed to update. Why fix the overall design when there's nothing to fix?

They're two totally different styles of controller, there's no point in comparing them.

I SAY PS3 CONTROLLER IS THE BEST

I LOVE PLAYING WITH THOSE AMAZING UPDATED PS1 CONTROLLERS THEY USE FOR THE PS3.

WHEN PLAYING A SHOOTER OR A RACING GAME WITH THE 360 CONTROLLER YOU HAVE TO REACH YOUR LEFT THUMB WAY OVER ITS SO UNCOMFORTABLE.

Modified your post for me. PS3 controller>>>360 controller.

I honestly laughed when they announced the PS3 controller. It's the same stupid controller from ten years ago. It's time to get a little creative Sony.lild1425

PS3 controller is worthless

360 controller is pretty bad for shooters but PS3 takes the cake

You don't have to reach your thumbs at all when playing FPS on the PS3 controller, you must be joking or have the hands of a 3 year old. The shape of the PS3 controller is actually made so when you're holding it, your thumbs are already where the analog sticks are so you don't have to reach. Try picking one up before you criticize it.

The 360 controller actually deserves the most criticism... it's a wierd shape, has small analog sticks that don't push down for the analog stick button very well, has small "pebble-like" buttons in general, has a worse D-pad than the original NES, has oversized triggers, eats up batteries like they're thanksgiving dinner, and isn't wireless standard.

It's funny that the only complaints I ever hear about the PS3 is the analog sticks which are COMPLETELY FINE. I play hours and hours of COD4 on my PS3 and I don't see what the complaining is about. It's really pretty sad.

360 Controller is the best IMO. My hands are huge, and fits me perfectly, and most comfortable to use after playing a game after 5+ hours in one night lol.

What's the point in discussing this? People who only own a 360 will say that its controller is superior. People who only own a PS3 will say that has the better controller. Out of the people who own both, about half will prefer the 360 controller while the other half prefers the PS3's one. Maybe we'll have some sheep claiming their motion controls beat both anyone, so cows and lems are pwnd!!, or some hermit that feels the necessity to state that nothing beats keyboard and mouse. That about sums up what this thread will be like. Therefore...

360 controller, I love my triggers for my Shooters (FPS/3rd Person).

From Gears to Halo, I just couldnt go wrong.

Wow, look at how many agree with me, this board has many of the same kinds of fan!

This topic is as old as the moon...

Well, at least you tried!

"Pats on back for trying."

I think it depends what you are playing. It seems to me that PS# controller puts more focus on the directional (RPG,Fighting,ect) wile 360 favors analog (FPS,Race,ect). I know it sounds really, really lazy, but the 360 controller gets heavy when playing a game for a long long time :P. PS3 needs to work on the triggers a bit, a bit too sensitive.

anyway... both work for me :D

PS3's controlelr comes with a rechargeable battery. With Xbox 360 you either have to buy new AAs after every 30 hours or pony up $15-20 for a charger kit. Motion controls plus a rechargeable battery should at least be equal in value to rumble, I should think.Timstuff

what happens when the PS3 battery starts losing its charge can you replace the batt or do you have to replace the controler?

that's what I have been wondering too. But, so far, my ps3 controllers have held a longer charges and haven't really noticed a reduction.... I wonder if its normal info-lithium or something... IDK, we will see I guess

(I always turn off rumble now, never liked the feature and it kills battery life like crazy)

Its something I dont think a lot of people have thought about. I mean when people bought the limited edition halo 360 pads it would suck if eventually the battery died and you had to buy a whole new pad. I would rather buy a new recharge pack for 20

I prefer the 360's because it has a better dpad and is larger.

However this one is great:

Madcatz Retrocon control pad

Except for RE4 in which it can't cope with the repeated pressing of running away from a rock or climbing a ledge (it doesn't register as many times as I push maybe it's my controller).
