a real gamer adapts to all controllers and finds them all comfortable.

I have always hated where the left analog stick is on the PS controllers. It doesn't really make sense to me to have it where it is, but Sony fans are used to it, so they would be silly to change it now.

LOL WHAT? MS is the one that doesn't make sense it wasn't done to make the controller better but to make it look even more different from their main competitor at the time. There is no reason for the sticks to be displaced like that there is nothing ergonomic about it at all it is counter intuitive and ridiculous that people say that its better...

Well, different people, different opinions. This is not ridiculous at all.

I dunno, playing a FPS and being forced to use R1/L1 was really annoying. The 360 controller (and the Wii mote + Nunchuck Combo) were really nice. The problem I have with Playstation controllers is they are too small. I'm not even a big person, but I would like a controller that can reach the base of my palm.

This is just an opinion, doesn't make it fact, its an upgraded ps1 controller, your stuck in the 90's ;)

well going by a comparison shot of the two together it looks like the DS4 is going to be the bigger pad or microsoft have put the 360 pad on a diet, either way longer better grips and proper triggers should even the balance between ps pad and xb pad.

Wont know which one I like more till I hold them in my hand. I dont think either will be bad. I like the touchpad and think it prob had something to do with the vita seems like they are trying to make Vita connectivity a top priority and thought down the road it would be good to have a touchpad on the DS4 like the Vita.

Sounds great!

I mean, even if the PS4 controller is still too small for me, how hard is it to make an XL controller? I'm not a big person, but I mean a lot of people are bigger then 5'4 (My estimated size of a person the PS1-3 controller would fit)

the PS4 controller is actually bigger than the 360/X1 controller
