| Going through google images I found some funny spin-offs of various sony & nintendo controllers. It came to me when I saw a pic of the dreamcast controller next to an Xbox controller. So, what controller design do you think is the worst ever? I think the worst would be the dreamcast controller, it looks bulkier than the Xbox controller O.o |

| Nice thread, I have to think about this. I think one of the worst is going to have to be the original xbox controllers. I mean, they did pattern it off the dreamcast and that was a bad idea. Making a mistake is not as bad as repeating one. _________________ Poem: A Jimi original Image: Mia's great work! |

| Everyone complained that the Xbox controllers were too big, but at the age of 9 i thought they were an alright size... I hated the N64 controllers. Yes i'll get flamed, but they were so damned annoying. Anyone remember the Sega Mega Drive having the buttons A,B and C on it? xD _________________  |

| the z button was probly the best part of the controller, it was bloody good for golden eye and fps games (hence why the Wiimote B button is similar, or the ps3 L2 & R2). |

| I hate the PS controller! XD The analogue sticks don't feel right... they slide about too easily. _________________  |
