I feel the same way , I cant get used to the 360 controller.. I dont know how the hell people prefer it over every other controller (looks at Twesterm the most)

I love the 360 controller (minus the D-Pad)!

Personally, I think it's the most comfortable standard controller ever made.  The triggers are wonderful, the analog stick placement is great, and it's just the right weight.  Your battery issues aside (I don't have those problems, but I've also had SIXAXIS battery problems other people haven't had) I think it's one of the better controllers ever made.

The only real drawback is the terrible D-Pad but luckily not many games nowadays need a precise D-Pad so it's not a huge issue except for a handful of games.

 

you know i had read they fixed the dpad thing on euroland controllers i hope we see those state side someday.... its all fine until you run across those few games where you need the dpad and can not get it to work right 50% of the time 

I got a new 360 last month and the controller that came with it has just as bad as a D-Pad as the one I've had for years so they aren't fixed in America yet.

And there is a pretty easy fix for it, though I still haven't gotten around to it.
