well, i love bungie for halo and hopefully destiny and i don't like the dualshock 3. seems like the ps4 contoller could be really a huge improvement for me. looks already more comfortable and can't wait to use one myself.

What was wrong with the ds3 for you specifically? I used it and the 360 controller and they both felt fine for fps in general.

 

I hate DS3. It's way too light (seriously, it's like you're no it even holding anything), and my fingers hurt if I use it for more than an hour at a time.

Lol my friend bought himself an old-school NES copy controller for emulators because he feels like the DS3 is "too heavy" . I laughed at him because the common complaint is that it's too light.


Too heavy??? Is your friend human? O.o

It literally weighs nothing. If I held two blu-ray discs in one hand and a DS3 in the other, the blu-rays would probably be heavier!

Only the avid FPS fans would prefer the 360 controller over the PS3 one. The 360 controller is so bulky and disorganized, and i don't even have small hands!

I was born with symmetrical hands, and this controller retains the symmetrical design. With that everything else is really a non issue. My heart goes out to those with disfigured left hands.

Weird post. The analog at the top is much more confortable than at the bottom like the DS, and with the d-pad less in use, it just makes sense to put it in the priority position.

Not for everyone. I can't use the Xbox controller because of the messed up analog sticks. It just feels so wrong.

In general, the position of the thumb is most relaxed where the xbox's left analog stick is. You probably think it feels wrong because you grew accustomed to an unusual position.

LOL I grew accustomed to an unusual position? Or maybe I just simply prefer the PS3 controllers analog sticks. The 360's analog sticks are only good for FPS games and thats it. Theres no right or wrong answer here so don't tell me I'm using an "unusual position". Grow up kid.

Which "DualShock 3 criticisms" actually?

Too Small, Analog Sticks too close together, Triggers..etc..etc.
DS4 is a completely different controller from the DS3. It's the first major revision to Dualshock. since the addiction of analog sticks.

I didn't realize ds4 had concave sticks. Gross.

It's a mixture of both. More like convex with an indentation for your thumbs.

No, your hands must be deformed if you think that the thumb where the DS controller placed the thumpads is a relaxed position.

That's why the d-pad is where it is, you know, back when the PS controller didn't have an analog stick.

Yes, it would be utterly impossible for anyone other than avid FPS players to prefer the 360 controller. 

/Sarcasm

 

The 360 controller is amazing. The only one I've liked better was the Dreamcast controller

I'm not even an FPS fan so don't categorize all of us that prefer the 360 controller as that because its not true
