Amusing, but in all fairness it\'s probably just the perspective of the picture; even the stick and buttons appear to be large in relation to this person\'s thumb.

Still, not a pretty sight. ;)

man, I wish I could laugh at this stupid crap, but then I realize that I am not easily amused and I look at the picture. Notice that the arm is being out-stretched into the cameras point of view. this makes it seem like the mans arm is sideways but it is not, making the controller look much bigger, when it is really just much closer.

hahahhaahahahahahhahahahahahahahah<------ I laugh easy.

Nice joke, but we all know the controller is not that big. And plus the big thing is getting kind of old now.

A quote from one of the authors of penny-arcade on the XBox controller:

"I always took commentary on the size of the Xbox gamepad with a grain of salt, wondering if these people weren\'t going out of their way to be contrary. I tell you now, God as my witness, I hate that controller. It is so inconceivably large that controllers from other systems whirl about it in a lazy orbit. If I pick up an Xbox (and in order to play Enclave or Munch, that\'s basically a must), I\'m going to buy a third party controller right off the bat and smash the other one with a hammer. Then I\'m going to drive over it. Then, I\'m going to drive over it again. "

eheh. gg microsft.

Penny Arcade repeats what they think hardcore gamers are thinking. They don\'t have a original idea in their head. Even if they\'re occasionally funny, don\'t take them seriously.

As for the pic, its totally been screwed with.


The controllers much more managable. This guys hand could cover most of it if he stretched his hand over it....

I still think it looks huge and unweildy. Not to mention ugly. (Not that that makes it bad.. the DC\'s pad is astetically designed like crap, but that dosen\'t make the games any less fun). Bout the only thing I really like about the Xbox controller is the Dpad.. that\'s a good idea having it all contured soft plastic. That\'ll make it much easier on the thumbs... er thumb.

When you look at those pics where they compare it do other controllers I don\'t really think it looks either big or ugly. I\'m sure it\'ll be a great controller.

Most people who have used it...thinks its comfy and thats all that matters.  Its gonna be to big for some...and mabe to small for some.  Live with it.....cause thats a fact that goes for ALL CONSOLE systems.  you can always go out and buy a third party controller that fits you just right.

I think the ps1/ps2 controller is to small.  It was originally designed for japanese hands....

I guess some of you out there are testifing that you have small hands?  well.....you\'ve heard the saying about hand size haven\'t you??? ;)    and now everyone here at the forums knows your "little" secret.  :D  lol  lol
