Top 10 Best Controllers of All Time Gallery and Images - GameDaily

My Thoughts...

Ofcourse Xbox 360 is #1.

GameCube should be in the Top Ten Worst Controllers of All Time.

Next, i saw a playstation fan say "WTF, Xbox360 controller made the list but the playstation 3 controller doesnt make it?!?"

Welp, if i remember correctly, there is a PS2 controller that made the list, isnt it the same design as PS1 AND PS3? Typical PS3 owner.

Last but not least, I know this is coming from a couple die hard PC guys, and dont get me wrong, i play PC games because im an all around gamer.

BUT!

It doesnt make the list because...... its for typing. =\

Not only is a WIRED keyboard and mouse more precise than any of the listed controllers (with the exception of racing games), but as you said, you can also type.

I think that automatically makes it 10x better than any listed controller.

i would always prefer a wired keyboard on PC gaming. You get your ass kicked with wireless. Shit dont be fast enough =\

Oh the 6 button Genesis controller was it for me. It was perfect for Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat and then they kept that design for the Sega Saturn which is one of my fav systems

it's just ashame that the Genesis versions of Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat 2+ were vastly inferior to the SNES versions

IIRC, the Dreamcast controller was damn comfortable in my hands. I also really liked the N64 controller for some reason. I love the 360 controller, too. I never cared much for the Playstation controllers, however.

I can't remember much on the Genesis controller, either; however, I do remember the SNES controller being fairly comfortable, too. Then again, I did have much smaller hands back then

TRUE! I remember mastering it and playing it mostly on Sega, then i got a SNES and borrowed it from my buddy and SF2 was alot better, Easier to play and everything. I wonder why.....

Playstation and SNES have the two best controllers BAR NONE!

Playstation wins it because of the D-Pad being 4 different buttons, as opposed to a plus sign, or a circular shape. It made it MUCH easier to play fighting games and not accidentally jump diagonal forward when pressing forward, or jump diagonal back when pressing back (or block).

i'm pretty sure that underneath the controller shell, the Sony D-Pad is still 1 piece

360 best controller ever.

Compared to the early Atari joysticks, these were great.
However now that I've been exposed to proper ergonomics, they're pretty painful for long hours of gaming.

It is, but because of how it comes through the plastic, it seriously cuts back on accidental diagonal jumps. Just saying.
