Then I guess you loved the original Xbox controller. That thing was massive.

Dualshock for me. I get confused when I'm reading controls for a 360 game when I can't differentiate between RB and RT on the screen. Doesn't happen with a PS3 game.

Aren't they called R1 and R2 on PS3? I think that's dumber.. There's no way to know which one is 1 and which is 2.. T = trigger. B = B as in secondary. Makes sense. The trigger is analog and the B is just a normal button for secondary stuff like reloading.

What the hell....

R1/L1 is the FIRST SHOULDER BUTTON, and R2/L2 is the SECOND SHOULDER BUTTON! AND ITS BIGGER (read: more than) THE FIRST ONE!

Dude, I love ya, really I do, but seriously, WTF?

It's more logical the other way around because R2 is the PRIMARY trigger. It's the one you use the most. As you can see, you really can't tell which is which if you didn't know it already.

R1,R2, L1,L2, R=right, L=left, 1=top, 2=bottom
i.e. R1 is on the top right
its printed on them too.
:wtf:

It's printed on the 360 too, and the numbers actually make some sense. They're not just randomly numbering the buttons, they're giving them a letter that stands for something logical. ...I can't believe we've sunken so low as to fight over which buttons are best named :facepalm:

Huh? What's that supposed to mean? Most FPS games I played on the PS3 has R1 for primary fire. And most other games seem to utilize L1/R1 more as well, with racing games being the obvious exception ^^

Well, R2 is far more trigger like. Perhaps it's because the PS3 trigger sucks? =)

Wait wait wait.....what?
And the PS3 trigger doesn't suck.

Just see that I got this right... R2 is the one underneath, the one that is analog, right? Yeah, it sucks because it feels like they put some paper or shit between the sensor and the trigger. Look at the 360 to see how it's done. That feels way more like the trigger of a gun.
