No, no PS3 here, my best friend has one though, and I have PS1 and PS2, so i'm used to DualShock (I still call the buttons O X /\ [])
It's true that i could try to learn to use the stick, but I'd rather have a d-pad that doesn't suck. If I can improve it at home using scissors, sandpaper and a peanuts can; I don't understand how can MS not bother to change it somehow, the controller is PERFECT in every other aspect, I specially LOVE the triggers..
Well, anyways, do this, seriously: it will greatly improve your experience in games that are heavy on d-pad use, it doesn't cost a thing and it's rather easy...
Feel free to ask away if you have any doubts, I had a few and I had to work the details on my own, but it works like a charm now!
Listen to the voice of reason, then do as I say.
