Anybody who does is not a gamer, or a smart consumer. Competition forces companies to produce better cheaper products. I for one do not want them to leave, they perfected the gaming controller...hopefully twice. I absolutely HATE the PS controllers, If I actually owned a PS3 I would have the XCM adapter so I could play with a 360 controller, without the superior controllers (IMO, barring the horrible D-pad of course...which I fixed on mine BTW, it works as well as any other Dpad now) and Halo, I would not be a gamer today. So MS has definitely brought at least one gamer into the mix. 


Maybe im wrong, but from what your saying I doubt you tried the PS3 controller long enough to make a judgment. When your used to something and then switch to something else your bound to not like it at first. Between, if you have difficulty with the R2/L2  buttons, the triggers add-on is less expensive than a crossfire adapter, and less trouble than fixing a D-pad. Both controllers works well and are comfortable.


You are wrong. The first time I picked up a PS2 controller I put it down within a few minutes of playing...it just didn't feel right at all, I didn't pick up another controller for a year or so. the first time i picked up the Xbox controller ("S" style, not the "Duke") It felt so good an natural...then along came the 360 controller, nothing beats it as far as ergonomics, functionality, feel, and durability go. FYI the D-Pad fix I did was incredibly easy and was literally no trouble at all. I just unscrewed the back, took the innards out, cut slits in between the contact pads in the rubber, put all the electronics back in, buttoned her up and presto! The D-pad works as it should!
