PS3 vs Xbox 360: The Controller

Let it be said that the PS3's and Xbox 360's respective controllers are awfully similar, and keeping that in mind, I'm comparing them.
Mind you I don't give a crap about the Dual Shock 3...

Grip:
Both feel good and comfortable, but the 360's feels kinda bigger and actually contours to your hand.

Analog sticks:
In feel and placement... the 360's is very clearly the better of the two. The 36o controller's left stick is placed in a better position for functional FPSing.

D-pad:
PS3's is the better, no question. The 360's blows ass.

Face buttons:
This is a matter of preference, do you like the softer buttons (PS3) or the harder buttons (X360)?

Shoulder buttons:
I largely dislike the bumper buttons on the 360, except for when reloading in Halo 3 and Gears of War. So I rate the PS3's bumper buttons (L1 and R1) higher.
The triggers are another story. The PS3's triggers (L2 and R2) suck. The 360's are far superior.

Power:
360's sucks because it requires a battery pack (and batteries if you don't have a rechargeable pack, and a USB charging cable or a charging socket). Suck it, Microsoft!
PS3's has its battery built in and is chargeable via mini USB to USB plug. Bravo Sony!

But... overall, the 360's controller is more functionally sound, but the PS3's is the better value.
Now I'll leave it up to you...

Happy New Year!
