I've used the Playstation DualShock controller since the PS1 and later PS2, and when I got my Xbox 360 in 2008 it was my first time using the Xbox controller and I had no problem adjusting to it at all. All the buttons are where you'd expect them to be, and the triggers are good for balancing the throttle and brakes in driving games. Personally I think both the Playstation and Xbox controllers are great.
Edit: I do however hate the D-pad on the 360 controller. I'd rather they were separate buttons like the DualShock.
I think it's a great controller, because it's bigger than other controllers, it 'fills' your hands more. :P I like the PS3 controller more if you look at the design, because the Xbox360 controller has all these colorful buttons, and those don't really appeal to me. But it's about functionality rather than design I guess, and I think the Xbox360 controller is better.
I really like the Xbox controller, it fills my hands a lot better than other consoles controllers and the triggers are easy to access/have a good amount of resistance which really helps when playing shooters and driving games. I was always a fan of the PS2 controller over the original Xbox's one, but the PS3 controller just feels really flimsy and it puts me off, the triggers are a bad attempt at copying the Xbox. They just feel terrible.
I think its the best controller on the market at the moment. Especially for FPS games. I'm just not a fan of the ps3 for FPs i guess. I mean its alright, but just doesn't seem as responsive as the 360 or something. I like the new controller that comes with the new 360 modelRyuketsu2043Little off topic but I LOVE your user icon. Battle Royale FTW! PS3 is better for me unless I am playing shooters, in which I love the 360 controller.
I love the Xbox 360 controller. Most well designed controller to date in my opinion. The only complaint is the D-Pad could be a bit better. But other than that, it's very ergonomical, extremely comfortable, well weighted, all the buttons and sticks are in just the right position and the triggers are freaking amazing.
I also completely agree with the following...

I love my ps3 controller dont get me wrong, mostly because its lighter, but the 360 just fits so perfectly in my hands. There are some games that dont work as well on it because its harder to twist my hands into weird positions but thats ok with me I just buy those games on the ps3. IMO they should bring back the first xbox controller, the fat one, it was amazing and even though back then I sucked at halo that thing made me so much better.
I like both the Dualshock and the Xbox controller equally, my only complaint about the 360 controller would be the d-pad.
It is good, and the triggers and bumpers are useful in playing fps, Third person shooters. Driving games are quite decent, heck I even got 1000G form Forza 2 using a Xbox Wireless controller.
Fightings games aren't that hard to do, like Tekken just smash and hope you pull of a combo. Well in the other hand SSIV or even SFIV it seems hard to combo in a Ultra or Super, in place use a joystick. I own a ps3 also and feels like its the same.
The Dualshock 3 I think it is more lighter and thiner.
It's perfect the way it is, but I do have a suggestion. If the controller worked via Bluetooth, it could work for Windows compatible games. Though I know about the wired version with a USB, the 95% of people who have the wireless one are kinda screwed. But one could buy a Bluetooth dongle and then use it, if it were Bluetooth-ed. Just an idea.
I really like the Xbox controller and greatly prefer it over the Playstations. Nothing against the Playstation, not a fanboy or whatever, but the Xbox controller is a lot more comfortable and I don't always accidently hit the "shoulder" buttons like on the Playstation.
The 360 controller is great for anything but fighting games IMO. also, maybe its not that great for games liek Bayonetta dn DMC, but they seemed fine to me playing it on the controller.
I love the Xbox 360 controller and it's my favourite controller for any console, ever. It just fits so comfortably in my hands and I love everything about it.
I love the 360 controller And i highly dislike the dualshock.Its terrible for FPS's but great for fighting games......Imo 360 controller is great in all areas.

This. Except I don't mind the colors. I feel like it gives me a much better grip, not that I have huge hands or anything :(
