hmm... long read and quite detailed.

You seem to start from a point of wanting to hate it and dont really move much from that...

I of course think you are wrong... but thats my opinion and you have yours.  But I do hae to say that there is so much that you have said that is at odds with general thinking.

and what serious gamer uses batteries...? get some rechargable packs for the best controller of this gen instead.

I'm really not sure what you're expecting. Should I universally praise everything even if I didn't like them? Am I not allowed to have a preference different to yours? I liked some aspects of the 360, but not all. Is that astounding? Further, I don't think I wanted to hate it; hell, I like the machine and said so several times, I just don't like every aspect of it. I feel exactly the same way about the PS3, by the way. I feel it's flawed in many ways as well.

As for not being a serious gamer because I don't have any form of rechargable packs. Sorry about that, I'm clearly not serious enough for you. And it being the best controller is entirely subjective. It certainly isn't for my wife. I like it fine enough, though.

clearly english sarcasm and humour hasnt spread to the frozen wastelands of the north yet....

Och! Whit is this 'SAARKASM'  y' throw at ma lug, sassenach? And Ah know humour well enough! That's when a sassenach tries t' drink whiskey!

Or, in truth, when I try to drink whiskey. Can't stand the stuff.

Suppose I better change the batteries in my dry wit detection device -- no rechargeables here.
