The current gens D pads are much better than the 360s. Xbones and PS4 and the current gens have decent d pads.

PlayStation controller stans are a sad lot. Its okay to admit they have the worst modern controller. Its okay to admit Xbox came up with the perfect design and have only improved it since.

xbox controllers are improving, and PS controllers get worse with each iteration

Sega's D-Pad's have been generally superior to anything Sony or MS could come up with.

Nintendo's Cross Shaped D-Pad isn't that good compared to Sega.

The only thing Xbox did that was perfect was using AA batteries.

You don't have to worry about taking apart your controller to replace a proprietary battery.

Something Sony is infamous for doing, proprietary BS instead of using standardized equipment.

IMO Symmetrical > Assymetrical.

But that's a personal preference issue.

Sadly they have changed that on the Elite v2.

Not sure. But it comes with a little charger base that is nice. The case has a little port that allows you to plug the base in without taking it out of the case.

Good god no lol. DualShocks have been terrible until the DualShock 4. That controller is absolutely one of the reasons PlayStation never really appealed to me.

My biggest gripe with the Xbox 360 controller is when the battery packs start to become loose. And somehow on every wired one of gotten, at least one of the control sticks has been squeaky

These days, Xbox style controllers all the way.

Anything else and if I play more than about an hour, my hand starts cramping and is pretty much useless for a day or so.

They use proprietary batteries that slowly wear down over time and have shorter & shorter total battery life that you have to disassemble and replace.

This is my SIXAXIS battery that I have to replace, completely proprietary.

You do know that people can like different analog stick configurations.

Some people prefer "Symetrical Analog Stick setups", others prefer "Asymmetrical Analog Sticks"

That's why the modern "Modular Controller" is a good idea.

It lets users customize the controller to what they like.
