[QUOTE="Tsyr, post: 1267611, member: 354"] I think some other people in this thread have said they liked it. My like for the 'box controllers can be summed up thusly: [list] [*]Size. I can conceal a PS-2 or Gamecube controller in one of my hands. It's so nice to finally have a controller that I don't feel like I'm having to contort my hands to grasp comfortably. The only other controller I can say this of (And not to the same extent even then) is Dreamcast controller. [*]Control Arangement: No strange angles. No buttons in unusual places. Everything is very basic, and it works. [*]Quality of Construction. I give to the X-Box controllers the same award I give my old IBM metal clickey keyboard . I've been using the same keyboard for many, many years, on many different computers, and it was many, many years old when I got it at a hospital auction for 2 dollars. And every key still works just as well as the day it came off the factory. That's quality. I feel confident I could beat a person to death with this keyboard, plug it back in, and it would still type just fine. Same thing with the X-Box controllers. [/list] ...but...it just...you know...I mean... come on... it really wasn't all that fun... not really... actually... to be honest... it was boring... add in the fact that in general I think FPS games on a control-pad are an abomination, and that Metroid Prime seemed bad even by those standards, and even the halfway decent graphics (It's no Halo, though) couldn't save it. And as long as I'm on the subject, Smash Brothers isn't all that fun either. Actually, it's kinda stupid. Evidently. :D [/QUOTE]
