That actually looks comfy!
-
I know I\'m gonna get flamed for this but I honestly don\'t have anyhitng good to say about this controller, now that doesn\'t mean I\'m not going to get an X-Box, but I think it looks FAT, UGLY, and a rip off of dream cast, and why the **** did they put that big ass X in the middle, is it really needed, we know it\'s an X-Box controller but we don\'t need to be reminded every time we use it :)
-
It looks to me the sidewinder mixed with the DC pad.
Its going to suck for fighting games.
BLAH!
-
This pic makes the controller look like a space ship. Just out of curiosity is that white and black dot extra buttons? or are they just part of the controller design?

The green Xbox circle in the middle might actually be a screen similar to the one on the VMU. MS said they were going to use something similar to the VMU.
-
didnt the SNES have A,B,X,Y button configurations? MS have really done there homework and copied every damn controller they could (https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.psx2central.com%2Fforums%2Fimages%2Ficons%2Frolleyes.gif&hash=41241ef281d7191c9d9c47a9bbf689280bdab9ee)

The X-box controller looks pretty much like A DC one which is very bad to hold on to.The PS2 controller is 10X better!!!!!!!!!!
-
hmmm....
The controller doesn\'t look as good as it did yesterday. They should always film it at weird angles. The weird angles make it look better. Not that it looks bad, Just not as good as it did before. It does look suspiciously like a DC controller though.

i still wanna know what genius decided to put the analog controller ABOVE the digital, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I was confused about this one too, but if it fits right in your hands, and the games are designed for the controller it might actually prove to be a good thing.
To hard to tell right now, and I\'m sure it will seem strange at first
-
Man you weren\'t kidding about the MS controller looking like every other systems controller. It even seems to have a little bit of saturn in it
-
I\'m thinking the same as ddaryl, the controller probably lays in your hand so that your thumb will be over the analog stick.
Also, everybody wants to bring up that it looks like other controllers. Didn\'t the original PS controller borrow HEAVILY from the SNES controller?
-
Sure as hell doesn\'t do anything for me, i still think the PS pad hasn\'t been beaten.
-
I think the ps2 pad is the best thier is or ever was, but this pad may be great for racing games (appears to have dreamcast like triggers on it)
-
I LIKE IT
-
Don\'t get me wrong, I am looking forward to X-Box.
But...
(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.multimania.com%2Fpsx2%2Fx-box%2Fpad.jpg&hash=4d4341150a90177c75f349fe3465d4f74aeb024e)
It has triggers exactly like the DC, buttons like SNES, and it has a second analogue near the buttons like the Gamecube pad. There is a tiny subtle hint of PSX/2 pad in there two though.
To be honest though, it does look very useful (not particaularly sexy) but it has all the best bits from the best controllers.
I think it is good, and don\'t really mind the fact that it is a blatant rip off of other controllers.

that thing was carpal tunnel syndrome written all over it

I agree too. I gotta try first before I judge. But the looks... they\'re quite mixed up. They\'re :boom: Can\'t say about that either; photos don\'t do good if compared to real life.
I still hate that lime green colour.
And nothing will change my opinion on that. Still if the colour would have been blue I\'d complain about them copying from Sony. So why do I complain at all?
-
One thing that must be done is to try it before any judgement is passed. The NGC controller looks like hell to hold and control but IGN said it was awesome so go figure.
-
Ugliest damn thing I have ever seen... Hopefully there will be some decent aftermarket controllers for that thing.
-
as i said yesterday in a post about the x-box. its complete ****e look at the design, it looks like it hurts to use and you wont see me buying an xbox.
-
It\'s a great controller, so you XB haters whining like *****es, shut the **** up. DC and PSone/PS2 controllers are all comfortable, and its shaped like a cross between them. The left anolog is placed at the top because the buttons are even with it, and its the main directional. It makes perfect sense. Stop (some of you) being morons. It looks dope, and will very likely play good.
-
The Xbox controller looks like a gigant toad!
Its fat and ugly..
I prefer the sleek PS2 controller.

-
No on all three of your points fast. It looks dope, PS2 controller doesn\'t look better. XB\'s controller looks much sleeker, PS2\'s controller looks boring.
-
Two words...
TOO BIG !!!
-
two words....
small hands!
-
I just think that green bubble thingie looks stupid.And ofcourse they took all the best parts of all the controllers it\'s MS and this isn\'t the first time they\'ve stolen ideas(think windows).
But I won\'t pass judgment on some pics I did that once when I first saw pics of the DC controller but then I tried it and liked it.
-
I\'ll have to pull out the old Sega Saturn but I think that is how the special Nights pad was... If my memory doesn\'t fail me.

i think if they took out that big XBOX bubble in the middle and closed in the conrtoller it would be a lot prettier and for my little hands easier to hold probaly - but i guess i will just have to wait and see
-
I like PS2\'s the best but X-box looks 2nd best, it\'s like and improved DC version. :)
-

I agree, your hands must be small if you think that the controller is too big. I actually like big controllers. The ps2 is a good controller but its a little too small for me. The x box looks comfortable imo, i just dont like the design.
-
I\'m not sure why MS chose to stagger the analog sticks. Seems like a silly decision to me. The PS2 controller is perfect with the analog sticks symetrically placed on both sides. Good for racing games where the left steers and the right is throttle. Putting them off balance like that is a sure recipe for sore hands.
I think they just didnt want to look like they were ripping off ps2. Personally I don\'t care who they rip off as long as it\'s comfortable and works well.
