Sony put their analog sticks in a poor position (the left one should be switched with the d-pad location) and have refused to move them going on the 4th version now.  That is not a good thing.

At least Nintendo has at least tried different things.  Seems to have worked out since so many things they have done became standards in controllers.


A lot of long time Sony gamers are used to the way the analog sticks are positioned and I'm one of them.  I prefer the positioning of the analog sticks on the PS3 rather than the 360 because I played on the PS1 and PS2 and now it feels natural to me, like for a lot of people.  If Sony changed it now it would be a big fuck you to long time Sony gamers.  Personally I can play on the PS3 and 360 controllers, the positioning of the analog sticks is no problem for me, idk why people make such a big fuss about it.
