Yeah I have no complaints about the DS3. I really like it and the new iteration looks great! Its a tad bigger and the analog sticks have it with a lip around it or whatever you want to call it so it doesn't slip off your thumb. That was definitley something I thought they should improve on and they did.

It not about skill it's about it being uncomfortable. :slap:slap

You must have some small hands, my hands aren't that bike and I have to force me thumbs down to the sticks, which is fine for the right stick as most games you use the buttons way more than the right stick but being forced to keep my thumb in an unnatural position to use the right stick is the problem.

I could only play with ps controller for maybe 20-30 min before my left thumb would ache. This has been the case for years. Once games started making movement using the left stick required on the PS I stopped playing for the most part until the Xbox came with the smaller controller.

I have tried 3rd part controllers for the PS but they all seem to be crap so it just sits there unless its playing a movie.

Plus I'd the Ps controller is so perfect why don't you find any( I have never seen any) ps design controllers for xbox, yet quite a few companies have tired to make Xbox controller for ps?
I don't have small hands and I don't ache when I play at all. Its preference not fact that the xbox controller is better than the ds3.
 
I've never had a problem with my Playstation controller, either, and I can play with it for hours without any issues. If someone does find it extremely uncomfortable to hold for a short period of time (with cramps and pain) - then perhaps it's not the controller that's the issue, but their hands? :dunno
 
Man every poll I've seen looks horrible for Xbox. Xbox need to change there ideas & quick because this isn't good. I'm not going to PO either for the moment but right now it's got to be the Ps4.

Yeah, it's not looking good. The "Day One" (launch) pre-orders for the X-Box One have been on Amazon for the entire week. But, the PS4 launch consoles have long since sold out.

I prefer the Xbox controller to the Ps version. I agree it's down to preference but the Xbox controller is an obvious preference to the majority of hardcore console gamers. That's about one of the few things the new Xbox One has over the Ps4.
 
On another note, I just noticed that IronLungs31, ironmann, IronManny voted for the X-Box One. I'm guessing that's the system of choice for fans of Iron Man? :rotfl

I know it's crazy. Like the poll here is 88% in Ps4's favour. I loved the 360 same as I did the Ps3 but the 360 just edged the Ps3 out for me in the end because I preferred the Xbox for online gaming but there's no way I'm going to order the One with the way things are going for it right now.

I hate the fact that your got to have the Kinect with it to. I don't want that

Who said I'm not comfortable and that I have small hands?

I thought you were through making unfounded assumptions that turned out to be wrong.... :lol:lol:lol

I am very much comfortable using both controllers, that axiomatically must mean hand size has nothing to do with comfort.

Btw, if you're uncomfortable, it will directly affect your skill.

I'm sorry buddy but the only unnatural thing I see here are your hands, 2o minutes? that's not normal, maybe carpal tunnel syndrome? Since nobody complains about using the right thumb to aim in shooters, which you know, are the most played genre in consoles, so at the end, you end up using the right stick just as much or even more than the buttons, since both right sticks are in the same location on both controllers.

And I had a dual shock-like 3rd party controller when I had my 360. :slap

lol @ that picture :lol.
 
Well I have no issue with 360 controler , have issues with ps controller so its pretty simple, the ps controller is the issue. I never had an issue with ps controllers prior to having to use sticks, so that pretty much point to the the ps controller stick position bing the issue.
 
I think all ps3 owners have an issue with controller it's too light and triggers aren't strong, but they fixed it with dual shock 4
 
I never liked the X-Box controller either. Just powered through it to play the Riddick game back in the day.
 
360 controller is my favorite controller of all time. Felt right from the first time I held it.

PS3 not so much. It was light ( got much better when they added the rumble) small, had odd shoulder triggers that were convex for some reason, and the sticks seemed soft and mushy. I played the crap out of Killzone 2 and the Infamous games, but there was always a long period of adjustment for that controller. I'm liking what ive seen so far of the redesign.

Ultimately though, I think it mostly boils down to whichever controller you use the most.
 
360 controller is damn ergonomic.

I feel like my hands are slipping on those dinky PS2/3 controllers. Hate playing any sort of intense/competitive game on it.

The PS4 controller looks much better now.
 
I suck at Tekken with the PS2 dpad. Its so easy for me to get corner inputs on 360 controller. I hope the ps4 has a good dpad
