Posted September 21, 2015 The controllers that I have used in my life time: ps1, ps2 and mad catz aftermarket one, ps3, ps4, xbox 360, xbox one and elite controller, wii + wii u, nintendo 64. I have to say that the dualshock 4 is by far my favourite controller. It just fits my hands perfectly, along with the DS4Windows you can setup macros and even use the controllers touch pad for your mouse which is very handy. I guess it just comes down to personal preference in the end, anyway what is your favourite controller?

Posted September 21, 2015 for me definitely the Xbox 360 wireless controller. perfect fit for my hands and the stick layout is (in my opinion) much more comfortable than Sony's controllers.

Posted September 21, 2015 DualShock2. Can't live without my PS2 and Gran Turismo 4. Here's to hoping the next Gran Turismo is just as good.

Posted September 21, 2015 All of you who love the 360 controller, give the xbone controller a shot.

Posted September 21, 2015 Xbox 360 is probably my favorite. All of you who love the 360 controller, give the xbone controller a shot. It's better, uses same button layout and drivers I've tried it, it doesn't contour to my hands as well as the 360 controller does. It feels more, sharp? I guess.

Posted September 21, 2015 Personally I like the Wii U Pro Controller, however, if you go to tournaments for Sm4sh, I don't recommend it. Input lag issues, and it's not easy moving from WIi U to Wii U, having to constantly disconnect and reconnect it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 21, 2015 Really need to try that one so time, perhaps get a gamecube on ebay or something.

I too love ds4 controller but have to ask, do you have build in bluetooth on your motherboard or dongle? I play with build in on my mobo and signal is terrible, can't cover the area underneath the light without it being wonky and loose connection. I say its about 1-2 meters how is yours mate?

Posted September 21, 2015 It just looks so wacky though, I don't see how it could be comfortable, but then again I can't beat it until I try it. it kinda molds into your hand. thats why the triggers i shaped to cup your fingers, they are pretty nice but i understand why people dont like them. i preferred the wavebird myself .

The joysticks are stiffer, and have contoured edges, and the buttons don't feel as mushy. I can't comment on the "sharpness", I went from a 360 controller and didn't have any complaints My Server - Update 1 - Update 2 - Update 3 - Update 4 Gaming Rig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 21, 2015 used controllers got to stick those in acid before using . Hahaha Just keep in mind the GameCube controller uses 'tri wing' screws, which are not the same as philips cross screws. It's like a cross screw, but with like 3 things..
