Do you agree that PlayStation controller is perfect?

I cant imagine any game controller better than PlayStation Dual Shock controller. (excluding keyboard and mouse)

I prefer the DS2 over the DS3.

Really? While overall it is the best controller available, but that is only because of the 360s faulty Dpad. I've had problems with the DS controllers since the beginning. The analog sticks in particular. When is Sony going to update them? Seriously, the same sticks since, what, 1997? And I remember people, myself included, complaining about the looseness and overall lack of quality in them.

Some like the different positioned analog sticks of the 360 controller, I hear it's better for shooters, a genre I care not for.

I'm quite comfortable with the sixaxis. It's wireless, the ONLY feature I care about this gen, and light as a feather so in itself a joy to use for games.

Well, 360´s one is a good example.

i think most of us will agree that its good, just not the best.

Yeah, the Playstation controller design is my favorite controller. The only thing I would change is making the L2/R2 more like they were on the PS2 controller. They're kinda weird to me on the PS3 controller. I hope PS4 controller is similar. No need to change what ain't broken.

Its a gimped version of kinect. People will think that since kinect is more expensive and looked at as a high end sensor.

If the D pad was all connected I would consider saying its the best. But it still wouldn't be perfect

I prefer the DS2 over the DS3.

lol...either i am not picking up your sarcasm, or you need to elaborate. please.

It is my favorite controller, so I guess I would have to agree.

Epic fail lol :P

fix the 360 D-pad we've got ourselves a winner-The-G-Man-

well I guess its going to be a winner within 2 months

I prefer the original PS1 controller (without analogs), then the DS2/3. I hate the analog placement, due to have slightly chubby hands. The 360 controller is far superior imho.

I remember hearing the the D-Pad is better on the DS. But i luv the DS controller cause im naturally good with it since good ol PS1 :D

it would be if they would do something about the dead spot in the analog sticks.the only time you really noticeit is racing games. also....the trigger buttons feel cheap and weak.

Yes i prefer this over all. no doubt. :)

i like the xbox 360 one more

Triggers. Flaw found. Not perfect.Skittles_McGee

I prefer the 360 controller, more comfortable, wonderful weight, excellent triggers, love the analogue stick placement

I hate 360 controller so much that i would do THIS if i had it.

The reason is i play games on my PC and some games i play using my PS gamepad (via usb connector) BUT some of the good games only accept Xbox 360 gamepad (I Hate you MS) so then when i finish fiddling with game files and hacks to get my controller working, guess what happens... I have to use L2 and R2 for throttle and braking(game doesn't allow key mapping) and thats INSANE everybody knows X is the throttle and square is brake but noooo MS had to reinvent the wheel with those damn pedal things... And that is why i hate it.

The Dual Shock controllers are my favorite of all time, but none of them have been perfect. I think the DS3 would be close to perfect if they changed the L2/R2 buttons to actual triggers. The 360 controller is great too, except for that d-pad.

I like the DS2 better, but the 360 controller owns them both (excluding the D-pad.) My favorite is the NES controller. :P

If you have elf like hands and don't like heft to your controller then yes.

Otherwise no.

i prefer the 360 controller, but the DS3 does just fine. i could see how someone with larger hands might have issues with it, though.

Nope. Far from it. I've never liked the Dual Shock controller design and I don't think I ever will.

I think the DS is one of the most awkward controllers on the market. Its the ultimate opinion question, but no, to me the DS is the bottom of the heap.

Is that a reference to Kinect or is there really talk of them fixing that crummy d-pad?

EDIT: and yeah if the 360 gets a d-pad close to the PS3s in quality we do have a clear cut winner seeing how the 360 controller is perfect in nearly all other areas (imo at least).

I want to see how many people think the PlayStation gamepad design is great.

That other thing just came to mind and the hate come back so i had to mention my hate lol.

It is good but not perfect. there is always room for improvement.

i agree and i doubt anything will ever beat it

I agree that it is a great controller but I wouldn't go as far as it being perfect or any other controller for that matter.

Hell no. The D-pad and left joystick should switch places. Then it would be 1000x better. PS controller = really, really bad design.
