I don't care for the placement of the dual analog sticks on the sixaxis personallymyke2010ah same here. and less of a controller thing, but i guess the way it's programmed... i hate that the ps3 controller disconnects everytime you start up a ps1 or ps2 game, or quit those said games and back to the main menu. its not a big deal, just a minor nuisance.
360 Controller. Personally, it's the best controller I've used. I love the layout, and the way it sits in your hands. The wireless controllers are the perfect weight. The center button for turning off the console and getting back to the menu is flawless.
I'm tired of the PS3 controllers. I've been using the same controller for 10 years when I had the dual shock on my PSone. The motion sensing is weak and feels tacked on, and the triggers are a good idea but not implemented very well.
360 controller: Very comfy, good resonsive triggers, rumble.
Bad: D pad sucks, bumper buttons suck.
PS3: Good triggers for racing, best analog sticks ever, motion senser works great, d pad rocks, good for most genres.
Bad: Trigger is bad for FPSs, interface is bad for FPSs, no rumble.
I like where the D-Pad is on 360 'cos when I used to play with PS controller, my left thumb would start to feel strain on analogue stick (being lower down) where many games such as FPSs you would be holding forward most of the time.
I also like how the LT and RT slide as they are similar to a gun's trigger instead of buttons on PS pad. Seriously I'm not a fan boy (note the avatar) and I think my PS1 days were ace with split screen party games. When I bought PS1 it was released as dual-shock so the pad that came with it was new - Analogue and vibes and even then i thought the thumbsticks stuck out a bit too much... ah well thats my opinion.
Im just curious about the response to this. I have a 360 and not a PS3. From the looks of it the PS3 has the same basic setup(having never laid my hands on one)as the PS2, which I own. IN comparison between the PS2 and 360 controller, the 360 is best without a doubt. Light, very comfortable, and perfectly positioned thumbsticks, with the only drawback being a poor D-Pad.What do you think?ahskip1
you really need to use a ps3 controller if you thing the 360 one is light
360controller is best, only bad is D-pad (but like never use it anyway so)aroxx_abonly a select few controllers have the good d-pad, i have one controller with the perfect d-pad, my other 360 controller has the left bad on the d-pad but the good remote plays like the first xbox controller d-pad, perfect.
