I’m sorry, but you guys are crazy in my opinion. There’s a good reason the PlayStation controller design hasn’t changed. And that is that it’s perfect. The person who said the PS controller isn’t ergonomic, obviously doesn’t know the meaning of ergonomic, or perhaps doesn’t understand the ergonomics of the human hand. The PS desgin controller can NOT be improved upon. Both sided are pefectly ergonomic. The 360 controller, while a HUGE improvment over the Xbox controller, is NOT ergonomic on the left side. If the analog stick and d-pad were switched, and had a halfway decent d-pad, I’d like it. But it would just be pretty much the same as that 12 year old PlayStation controller. And I MUCH prefer the PS shoulder buttons to triggers. The PS3 now has triggers for L and R 2, but I would NEVER look at those as triggers, because anyone who like the PS controller, and has for years knows that R1 should always be primary fire anyway in shooter games. Devs that use R2 and L2 for fire are stupid. I’d never buy a game that did that. Those new triggers shouldn’t be called triggers, but they make great gas and brakes in driving games.

And to be honest, I’m really surprized that Cliffy doesn’t like the PlayStation controller. Mabey he just hasn’t used the 6 axis or DualShock 3. The PS2 admitedly didn’t have great analog sticks for FPS games, but the PS3 controller, while it looks the same on the outside, has been totally reworked on the inside. The PS3’s analog stick are incredible, not only that but now are the best FPS sticks in gaming. And I have PROOF of that. The proof is one of EPIC’s own games. Unreat Tournament 3. Being used to the PS2 sticks in FPS games, I didn’t think there was a chance in hell that UT3 would handle well on PS3. Well, myself or anyone else that’s played UT3 on PS3, even the PC crowd were all amazed at how well the new PS controller handled UT3. Even with Speed Freak on the game NEVER get out of control with the PS3 controller. I’ve played both version extensively, and I honestly think the new PS controller handles UT3 better than the 360 controller does. MUCH better. Not to mention the game looks and runs better on PS3, mods too. Though honestly split-screen is nice on 360. My advice to Cliffy, and other gamers that are judging the PS3 controller based on your experience with the PS2 controller, is to give the PS3’s controller a try. The sticks are lightyears beyond the PS2 sticks. And the controller is SO much more comfortable than the 360 controller. Your hands will thank you. Cheers.
