the best pad is the gamecubes ergonomically designed one, then the xbox, the ps2's is by far the worst and most poorly designed, the only reason that there are adaptors and similar versions for the pc is that there are loads of casual gamers that use the ps2 joypad and know it well. These people not being bothered to actually get used to a differnt controller like the rest of us will simply by an adaptor or a pc version simply on the basis that they know their way around a ps2's design poor as it may be.

4 minuites, i could have a quick race on mario kart and turn it off before i get to play a psp game, adn what about the home consoles, ps2 takes ages, xbox takes a while and the gamecube takes just a few seconds. i think nintendo are on the ball!
