... can take sme getting used to, but once you get used to them you won't go back. The advantage to the analogue sticks is that they aren't restricted to 8 directions like the old D-pads that were used by consoles in the past. You have almost 360 degree movement and this improves the flexibility the player has when playing a game - such as the direction you would get your player to run while playing FIFA, or the swing of your golf club in Tiger Woods. Generally, the left analogue stick is used for movement, and the r...more

Xbox Official Controller S: Official is best (1366 words)

We all know that official is usually best. If the original company has any sort of prowess, and a half decent research department, they will find the best layout for the pad and then patent it. This inevitably means any other companies have to settle for the 'second-best' layout. And this is the case with the Xbox pads. I have tried the Madcatz pad along with the Logic 3 pad, and the only thing they have over the official pads is the price. AESTHETICS: The Xbox pad is well known for its size. It's bulky, its big, and its hard to use for the first time. But once you've had a few goes with it, you find its hard to go back. The ... Read the complete review

There's no beating about the bush - the XBOX controller is almost as big as the Gamecube when it was released in November 2001. Still, after all the horrible press it's got, I have to say...the XBOX controller is...well...great! People complain about it being huge; but they probably just have tiny, girly palms. This is a man's pad, for man's hands. What's more, it can back up the size with performance, not mentioning a few tricks up its sizeable sleeves. It's a nice black colour to match your machine, with a honking great XBOX logo at the top (in case, you know, you forget what you're playing on), and it fits snugly in your ...

Xbox Official Controller S: Who Is Your Daddy, And What Does He Do? (923 words)

When the XBox launched back in November of 2001, one of the biggest complaints by most gamers was its controller. It was not only massive but the buttons were spaced just a little too close together. When I first used it, I hated it. There was no way I could get used to this thing I though. Thankfully, when I eventually got my XBox on launch day along with a few games, I began using the controller more and more and eventually got used to it. Heck, I even grew to like it. I had really no problem with the size or the button ... Read the complete review
