My thumbs are too slow for Quick Time Events.

I tend to press with my wrist and forearm, rather than my thumb. Give it a try; place your thumb on your controller, but keep it rigid, and move it using your whole arm.

Oh yeah, I've tried that; the only problem is that my wrist/palm is too big. I more often than not end up pressing more then one button. Especially on a PS2 controller since I have to evade the right analog stick so I hit both circle and triangle or circle and x. On a GC controller that worked wonders, though. The big green A was big enough for my hands. Like badgenome I just rely on my index fingers. 

Now I'm just wondering, do you have small wrists? 

No, no. You press with your htumb, but the motion is in your wrist/forearm.
