Kinect will win with DAT MORNING VOTE. It's only behind because kinect lovers exercise so much during the day that they go to sleep really, really early. Like at 8. You'll see the morning vote around 5. It will be insane.

Holy crap, I voted for Dualshock 3, but I didn't actually expect it to be practically TIED with the 360 controller. I thought that was generally considered the best.

Voted for 360 controller.

Can't vote for side-by-side analog in good conscience.

I voted 360. I do agree the d-pad is not flying, that's why I get all fighting games on PS3, I dig that d-pad. In general I find the 360 controller more comfy though.

If the 360 had a working d-pad it would probably be a top-tier controller. Don't know how anyone can vote for a controller with one part that literally does not work.

The d-pad works for how it's used in most modern games anyway, just four buttons you can push for inventory or nightvision or something. Just doesn't work as a d-pad.

It took until vote 345 for Kinect to get its first vote.

I voted for "Nintendo's Wii Remote + Nunchuck" because I don't have an Xbox 360 or PS3 yet.

Literally. It literally does not work correctly. If I see someone complete one character's trials in SSF4 with that thing, I take it all back. From my experience with it, the d-pad does whatever it wants.

And now the most recent update puts gives DualShock 3 a 30 vote lead now. The Xbox 360 controller is only doing well because of the US. Just wait for that night vote, because it'll favor DualShock 3 because of Asia and Europe.

Stop it stop it stop it augh kryptonite would be preferred right now

But seriously, it works correctly just fine. It's just not good for fighting games. Like, no other game uses the D+Pad for anything but a button simulation anymore, anyway.

360 all the way, I do agree the D-pad is junk but most games I play don't really use it.

I like DS3 alright, just hate the left stick placement, prefer the asymmetrical style.

Might as well correct me now then. From what I understand, literally can be used in any instance where you're referring to the literal meaning of the words that follow. Sure there isn't much confusion in my sentence as it's doubtful that I would be saying the controller doesn't work in a figurative sense... but I can't see why you're so annoyed.

Not that it matters anyways, language changes as people use it and even dictionary definitions don't mean anything if the majority of language users are using the word in a different matter. In common usage the word literally is pretty much an intensifier these days. I rarely hear it used correctly.

It's more than fighters. Switching styles with Dante in DMC4 was brutal, far worse than I figured it would be. There are plenty of 2D XBLA games where it would be nice to have a D-Pad. Of course, you can use the analog stick instead, but it's not because it's better. No game is going to make use of such a bad input method.

well the right analog stick on every single controller is almost universally used to control the camera, so the C-stick is not really different at all from every other right analog stick

I've never trolled and I probably never will. I'm just looking to be educated.

A quick Google search tells me that the word literally means, "in a literally manner, word for word" or as an intensifier as already mentioned. If my definition of a d-pad working correctly is a controller that correctly reads the movements you've made with it's d-pad... the 360 one does not work correctly. You can argue that no extra emphasis was needed, but I'm not sure how it was wrong.

I'd understand if I said something like "I'm literally sweating my balls off" since that's kind of impossible. But I can't see what's so ridiculous about saying the d-pad does not work.
