The analog sticks on the Dual Shock are terrible - convexed joysticks that your thumbs can't rest in are just WRONG. Whilst the gamecube also had a convexed joystick, it had it done right with grips on the top of the stick for your thumb to glue to. As soon as your hand becomes sweaty, trying to keep thumbs on the Dual Shock analogue sticks is a nightmare.
3 generations and Sony still haven't gotten that through their heads.
For the 360 pad, If it wasn't for the D-Pad being absolute arse it would be 'the' perfect games controller.
