What is the greatest controller?

the dreamcast controller

The Wavebird! Stick a proper left analog on there and I don't think it could ever be dethroned.

Neo Geo

I think I'm going with the SNES, the button layout is perfect and is pretty much the basis for the dualshock. GC and the 360 controler are a close second and third.

If we could get a hybrid of PS2 and Xbox 360, that would be perfect.NBSRDan

I personally like the DualShock controller. Since it's has a simple and easy-to-remember layout and it's even a little comfortable to hold. :PCloud_765

That's one of my main reasons for liking the DualShock so much. I know the layout and can't ever forget it.

Gamecube Controller it has a nice feel to it.

I love my GC and my N64. BUT for GODS sake!!How in the world can anyone like those controllers? I love NIN but they have went on the other side of the spectrum with their controllers compared to other companies. This is the only reason I dont play ninconsoles that much. I have all their consoles, but they have a lot to learn about doing a correct controller.

I'm torn between the Dualshock and 360 controller. I prefer the Dualshock's d-pad but I love the triggers on the 360.

Dualshock... 3 gens and still working great.

The GC controller if my favourite so far.

Nearly a tie between Wavebird and Dualshock 3, but overall I'd say Dualshock 3.

Between the current gen consoles, 360-only owners would say the 360 controller is best, PS3-only owners would say DS3, Wii-only owners would say the Wiimote, 360/PS3 owners would say the 360 controller, 360/Wii owners would say the 360 controller, PS3/Wii owners would say the DS3, and 360/PS3/Wii owners would say the 360 controller. and any professional game journalist would say the 360 controller. As well as any multiplatform game developer.

Nintendo sixty four!

The GC controller if my favourite so far.

The D-Pad is one of it's best features. Same with the thumbsticks.

[QUOTE="wolverine4262"]360 is the best controller ever made.... I dont feel like im exaggerating when i say thatMarthRingman

i liked the flexibility of the nintendo 64 controller

you could use it in your right or your left or both hands and just for kicks you could use two nintendo 64 controllers in goldeneye 007 lol give it a shot lol

the wii controller is somthing like this , which is why this one is best

-the original snes controller/classic controller 2nd

then the original dual shocks 3rd , the ps3 one is not as good you dont have to even push on the r 2 for itt fire your guns , and that causes a problem in stealth games like rainbow six vegas

Truly ahead of its time.

all of them have their flaws

none of them work for all games,

it really depends on what games you play most

LOL, sure it looks like a rocket ship, but it was the fist self centering analog stick I had played, I got it before the 64. It was amazing at the time...

Love the lack of bias in this post.:roll:

I'd say the 360 controller. The Duelshock needs better 'triggers' and the gamcube controller felt like an unresponsive toy to me, the buttons didn't have enough 'snap' to them.

for consoles:

comfort:

360 Controller

performance:

Dualshock 3

DualShock 1/2 when I was younger but now I'm starting to like the 360's controller.

Remember the banana controller :shock:

If Sony made that the standard PS3 controller, OMG....

If a 3rd party decides to make a controller shaped like the 360 one, but instead switched the position of the left stick and the D-pad while adopting a dualshock-like D-pad and make it compatible with both 360 and PS3, I would use that controller until I die. :P

Since that doesn't exist, I gotta say that I perfer the DS2 from all the controllers I have tried. It would be DS3 if it had better triggers. I saw a trigger add-on for it at EB games that makes it concave and bigger but I haven't tried them yet.

Xbox 360 controller is easily the greatest ever imo

gamecube was my first console ever, my hands have never enjoyed another controller since.

I remember that. I was like, "What the Hell happened to the DualShock!!!!!"

then the original dual shocks 3rd , the ps3 one is not as good you dont have to even push on the r 2 for itt fire your guns , and that causes a problem in stealth games like rainbow six vegas

That's why so many developers use the R1 button, something that should've happened with the DualShock 1.

In my opinion the gamecube controller fits really well and has great button placement.
