PS3 controller. Analog sticks are aligned (symmetrical) instead of ...whatever the 360 one is.

Thats probably the worst thing about the PS3 controller, its why you see so many third party controllers for PS3 giving you the option to change that.
Symmetrical analog sticks made sense back in the 2d era and back when platformers were the number one genre. Back then most people used the d-pad and face buttons for most games. In this day and age it no longer makes sense. The inputs you use the most should be in the primary position. Left stick and face buttons are the most used inputs for most games, the 360 got it right by putting them in the primary position.
I probably wouldn't have even bothered buying a PS3 if not for the third party controllers and adapters. I gave my dualshock away.

I just bought a brand new 360 and trust me, the d-pad a'int fixed. Since you can't quite come to grips with some basic truths, your entire argument becomes suspect, even if I do agree with some of it. You do realize that the default controller that comes with a new PS3 is wireless.

Have you owned an older 360 controller? Trust me its much better than before. Get a 360 controller from 2005-2007 and compare its d-pad to the new ones. It is very much improved. Whether or not you like the current d-pad is opinion. Changes were made and thats a fact. I believe it first happened in 2008 with european xbox controllers, you can look it up.
Yes I know that the default controller is a wireless dualshock, I'm simply saying that if third party options did not exist I would not have bought a PS3. I bought a ps3 that came with a dualshock. Within a week I bought an adapter and gave away the dualshock.
