I loathe this controller and always have. Too small for my hands, feels flimsy. The PS4 controller is excellent, but all the previous PS controllers were trash.


I agree. The first three Dual Shocks were not good. Not enough weight to them and cramped button placement.

Playstation dualshock has been reigning champ since it was introduced in '98 as far as I'm concerned.

XBox's offset never really did it for me, though I didn't mind adapting. Gamecube was easy to adapt to as well. N64's was an abortion for such a great system.

Not sold on the two toned look, but I like all the hardware changes they've made. Tough to make too much of an assessment without feeling it in the hands.

The ergonomics of the current controller have always felt a bit off in my hands. I hope this one feels better.

Really love the look of it. Futuristic.

The PS4 controller feels like shit. I don't really care how it looks as long as it feels better. The XB1 controller is light years better, IMO.

The D-pad on the Xbox controller is horrendous. The Switch Pro controller is the best.

Played some fifa ps4 matches with friends. That controller was worse than I remember from when I owned the PS1 and PS2. I own a Switch with a pro as well. No doubt in my mind, that the Xbox One controllers are the best.

The Xbox controller has always felt too heavy to me, but I like the button placement. Honestly, every controller has pros and cons.

I'd rank them...

Switch Pro Controller
XBox One
PS4

No doubt. It is a thing of beauty

I take it back. The Switch pro controller wins.
