Best controller I ever owned.

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.

I just bought a brand new 360 and trust me, the d-pad a'int fixed. Trying to switch between weapons in Fallout 3 while you're geting your ass kicked, and you can't select the right fucking weapon, should be enough to shut all of the sycophants up. But it isn't, I'm sure.

You do realize that the controller that came with my shiny new 360 is not wireless, no, if I want that, I have to pay extra. So STFU, just the fact that the PS3 comes with a wireless controller is enough for a win. I fucking hate the nickel and dime job that all of the xbox fanboys are so eager to buy into. PS3 owners probably don't realize this but not only did I pay for a 12 month subscription to access the internet, something I already pay for, there are actually commericals on the 360! MS sells advertising space on the 360!

First of all... calm the hell down. Don't take your anger at MS out on me. I don't like microsoft either but they make a better controller (IMO) and I'm not going to deny that fact just because they are greedy corporate pigs. 

Second... I don't know where you bought you're 360 from but I haven't seen a 360 with a wired controller for years. Do you live in the US?? As far as I know all brand new 360's in the US come with wireless controllers.

Finally this topic is not about which company you hate more, its about which system has the better controller. This seems to be the running theme with any discussions about sony vs microsoft. Most people just can't view these things objectively. 

Without a doubt the Duel Shock 3 for me. Try playing 6hrs straight with the DS3 and the 360's controller, too and see which one is more uncomfortable in the end. Sure shooters are a bit better with the 360's triggers, but over all the DS3 is much more balanced.

Ｉ think many who mainly play 360 prefer the 360s due to familiarity.

If the 360 controller had the Sega Saturn D-pad, it would be the best controller ever made. But as it is, that Logitech PS2 controller is the best. For the sake of this topic, the 360 controller is better. I never liked the sunk in D-pad of the PS controllers, it just feels too stiff for me. That's why I love the Logitech controller so much. DS3 triggers are horrible.

xbox controller is perfect for my hand is more ergonomic specially for people with big hands and the trigger button is perfect for shooters

they are about the same, there are better controllers out there for different genres anyways.

The interesting thing is both companies loose money to each other because of different genre games. But I think Sony is getting hit the hardest because shooters seem to be the most popular genre. But if Fighting games were just as popular as shooters the Microsoft would be getting the hardest.
