The controller is the console!
Honestly how many people use the left analog stick to move? I absolutely hate it and only use it when developers make me.
I have both controllers and when I'm on ps3 I always use the dpad as its more precise and feels more natural. Sony would be stupid to make the analog stick the main input for movement when dpad has proven to work for generations.
On 360, the dpad is shit and not placed well ergonomiclly as the main movement input. The analog stick is the main input and encouraged to be used more but sometimes it feels like you're struggling to get the precision you want.
I think some 360 owners opinion is innocent on this because their dpad sucks and they've used analog for so long placed as the main input movement for your hands. To them, ds3 doesn't make sense cause they think we use analog but in a more awkward precision. You can't blame them for that.
Errrrr yes.
Seems right to me.
This isn't the Durango controller thread

You don't say? The plot thickens
I do, junior. It's pretty tiresome when people go in to PS4-threads and start posting shit like "lol the sticks are all wrong!".
Check it out: thirdparty controllers exists. Nyko makes some decent ones (with the 360 stick placement).
"HOW DARE SOMEBODY HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION TO ME!"Wrong.
Dual Shock controllers are a piece of shit.

LOL WTF
Someone think they are still in the NES days.

Pretty sure he means Junior member, don't get your knickers in a twist.I bet it makes you feel like a big man calling someone junior.

But I didn't post that the stick are all wrong, I just didn't agree with someone's opinion.
Wrong.

I don't buy 3rd party controllers since 99% of them are pretty horrible. I stick with 1st party controllers. I've adapted to the Dual Shock controllers but that doesn't mean they aren't crap.
Oh my, sorry if I hurt your feelings. How dare I do something like that.
There is a difference between not agreeing with someone, and flat out saying that they are wrong.

Nyko's controllers are pretty good, you should atleast give 'em a try - http://www.nyko.com/products/product-detail/?name=Raven+(Alternative)
I was hoping for a larger change, but that still looks good.
I wonder what MS controller is going to look like.
Anything to get us off our current course. I don't post often in Sony threads so I decided against rampant sexual stupidity as the icebreaker.I bet it will have a LCD-screen scrolling a welcome text when you turn on your console - "Welcome I_PWN_NOOBS420!"

The future is naow.no controller. 100% Kinect.
I'm pretty sure I'm referring to him calling me a junior member. My point is why mention it? So no need for you to be a cheerleader.
I'm not a woman, so I don't wear knickers.
Yes, we get it, your preferences are different from the majority of the Playstation audience. Now stop shitting up the thread.Wrong.

His opinion is just as valid as yours. There are a lot of Playstation fans and potential PS4 consumers that prefer one style of thumbstick placement over the other.
If anything, this thread has highlighted a demand for two SKU's of the PS4 controller. Why not have the standard symmetrical controller bundled with the console and then have a first party 'Pro' version of the controller available at retail (with the asymmetrical layout)?
The borderline fanatacism for symmetrical thumbsticks in this thread and immediate disdain for anything different is concerning. It's PS4 announcement week folks. Cheer up.

So far only Nintendo radically change the controller every time a new machine launches. MS and Sony have only ever added modifications to their standard design.
I'd argue that Sony hasn't really made any modifications at all.
Always wondered why some juniors feel the need to insult to prove their point, but it does lead to some hilarious bans.I don't know if you're aware, but on NeoGAF if you get banned as a Junior Member, it's an automatic permban. This is to keep Junior Members from shitting up threads.
Weird, I'd say there are way more asymmetrical fanatics out there who'd never accept a symmetrical layout.
I'd argue that Sony hasn't really made any modifications at all.
Would asymmetrical fans be happy if symmetric fans kept going into the eventual Durango controller thread and whining that the established layout isn't changing since we all know that it wont?
Would Xbox fans be happy to see a "pro" controller on sale that features symmetrical sticks? Suggesting that the bundled one isn't a pro controller?
Both layouts are synonymous with their respective brands, to expect either to offer the other at this stage, certainly as the main controller, is silly. I can see neither offering a pad with the other layout.
no controller. 100% Kinect.
^ This.
Ban the folks that keep on doing the "asymmetric > symmetric" in this thread, please.

Well technically, you haven't seen anything.

obviously a joke. I don't think anyone really thinks microsoft is going to go 100% kinect for the durango.
Erm, Sony went from the initial PS pad to dualshock, to boomerang, which they hastily retracted when people started turning it into a meme, to sixaxis to move. Switching the position of the left thumbstick with the d-pad seems like one of the minor things to do.

You must not play many 3D games, I don't think I can name even one on PS3 that lets you move with the Dpad.
