damn you microsoft!

you have single handedly created the WORST console controller in existance.  you make the dreamcast controller seem like a work of art!


anyone know if the japanese controller will work in my US xbox?

Maybe there is a third party controller out there more to your liking. Have you looked at any of them?

Well mad cats has made a "hands friendly" X Box controller, I myself think the controller could have been a little better, but all in all it isn\'t half bad.

I know what you mean. I don\'t how many gamers they asked and polled but controller just sucks ass. I would have liked it if they would have just copied the dc pad and change it black and but Microsoft in the middle.

But until I pay off some bills I will be forced to keep the controller. But I have Nbalive 2k2 and I just hate playing it because I hate using the damn the controller. You have to press that damn black button to face your oponinent.  Then move down to Y to block.

Thing is just too damn big.

It\'s official!  I\'m the only one who likes the Xbox controller...it fits in my hands perfectly.

Oh yah,  don\'t get the interact 3rd party controller.  You have to press the buttons really hard to get a response.  Unacceptable for games like Halo or DoA3.

Yes, the Japan controller should work on the US systems thats what people said on some Xbox forums.   I got use to using the controller.  


Heres the picture of the Japan controller.  The select, start, clear and the black buttons has moved. I hope its the size of the Dreamcast one.

hmmm, now i wonder where mm can score a japenese controller

mm this is the second topic you started that you attacked the xbox controller.  As I said in the first thread, the controller isn\'t bad, you are just used to the PS2 one.  If everyone was using the xbox controller for 5 years, the dual shock would seem too small and its buttons too far apart.

I now really like the xbox controller.  Get used to it.

They also like the Jap version better.

some size difference huh

Well MM, it could be worse.. MS couldda ripped off the N64 controller and doubled it\'s size. Maybe some of the Nintnedoites are right and it\'s all in how you hold it. I\'ve had mine for like 3 years now and it\'s still the most ungodly controller I\'ve set eyes/hands on. Xbox\'s is big, and takes some getting used to... but I jus don\'t see how you can say it\'s worse than the dreaded 3 prong boomerang.

I liked the Nintendo 64 controller a lot, though it was rather intimidating at first. I think it just varies from person to person.

Xbox\'s controller is okay, but it hurts my hands after a while. It is too bulky when it comes down to it.

maybe you hands are just too small MM...and you know what that means...............im hungry

nope, i got hands like clyde  

it was just retarted to put the analog sticks on different levels and put the white/black buttons up so high

Yeah i thought the xbox controller was comfy until i got to play it a lot and my hands started hurting. Those black and white buttons are a B...! I thought they tested it and made it comfortable for the majority of the people, both small handed or large handed. And why did they put the analog stix on different levels? I dont know. I prefer the playstation stix for fps. Timesplitters was fun as hell and you had total control over movement over aiming. Also for games like starwars starfighter where you had the roll/yaw and pitch configuration. Plus the innovation put into games like yanya cabalista could never be reached. Even though the game was a flop another game could do the same thing and greatly improve on it making it great fun.  For the most part the controller isnt a total nightmare. It could have been worse.
DAMN YOU MICROSOFT!
