I'm one of those who cannot play with a PS3 controller. (my main issues being the sticks positions, the convex analog sticks and the triggers)

But while I have no doubt I will prefer the Xbox One controller, I have to say that Sony improved their controller quite a bit to my point of view by ditching the convex sticks and revamping the triggers :) Too bad "for me"; they did not move the sticks hehe,

Thats interesting because I can play with both but when it came to fighting games my friends (and I) had the hardest time switching from the PS2 to the Xbox controller because its terrible to use for fighting games unless you're solely dependent on the left analog stick. I never had to start learning because by the time I invested in Street Fighter IV and Tekken, i had already purchased a PS3. Luckily for my friends who will be buying the Xbox One the finally fixed the direction since they are paying for Double Helix to make Killer Instinct.

I actually found that for platformers (using the d-pad) the PS controller in general is better and even if I'm not a fighting game lover I can easily understand why the PS controller would be better for that kind of game. The one thing I dislike very much about the Xbox 360 controller... And I'm a bit ashamed because it is mainly my fault, is that when I'm in the action, I ALWAYS end up click on the stick by mistake, therefore zooming in/out like crazy in Halo for instance :)

On PS3, last game I played was the Last of Us; and it was really unconfortable for me to play that kind of game with the PS3 controller... I'm just not use to it at all, even after playing few games :)
