What nex gen controller do you prefer?

I like the gamecube one because its comfortable and suits its games the best.

The GameCube's controller, and I'm not just saying that because GCN is my favorite console. The L and R triggers can be a pain for fighting games, but with pretty much everything else it's fantastic. PS2's controller would be the worst, as it's just plain uncomfortable. The prongs just kind of stick into the palms of your hand.

1. Xbox (Controller S)
2. GCN (wavebird)
3. PS2 controller

Xbox S is nice except for the small black/white buttons. GCN controller is nice for Nintendo games but some 3rd party games don't control very well on it and the D-pad is too small. PS2 controller is too small and the analog sticks are crappy.

The "Duke" Xbox controller is where it's at. I refuse to play with the Controller S unless I have to.

The GameCube controller is pretty comfortable, yet it has that odd placement of the Z-button.

The PS2 controller works quite well with fighting games, yet the analog sticks get in the way when producing a combo. For everything else, it's great.

Xbox. One word. Huge. Great for FPS. It does have an odd placement of the Start, Select, White, and Black buttons.

Gameboy Advance: Works well. Again, those shoulder buttons might annoy the players yet one can get used to it.

I like the Xbox controller, but due to sudden increase in playing Halo, I'll probably cop that new FPS Master shit..

the gamecube controller is the most comfy controller i've ever had. the ps2 controller is ok with me, except i usually get blisters on one of my fingers cuz of the part at the top that curves back. for some reason my finger is always rubbing against it and i usually get a blister if i play too long. the xbox controller? i hate it. it's huge, but that's not the part i hate. it's that all the buttons are like the same size. of course, i only played like one xbox game

it's that all the buttons are like the same size.

Yeah, I wish all companies would be smart and make one HUGE button in the center of three oddly shaped buttons.

I played Xbox for a very long time after i got it... and hadn't played GC during that time...
When i played Mario Kart on GC........ i was kinda shocked...
The controller felt so weird but i was so familiar with it before...

The GC controller has great placement... great accessibiliy...
The Xbox (S) is great for the games i have (Halo, PGR2 and DOA3)... so like... it's a toss up...

Oh and the POS2 controller? The only game that felt good with it was GTA3...
The rest it's like fumbling around with four pussies on a bed...













Cats, that is....

Its a tie between Controller S and Wavebird for me.

Screw it, Wavebird. Wireless is amazing. Both controllers are absolutely perfect. Unless you count that start button on the S controller. DROP THE DAMN XBOX JEWEL!

at least we almost unanimously agree that the PS2 controller blows...
