I think the dualshock playstation controller is underrated because of the marshmallow shoulder buttons on the ps3. The PS1 and PS2 did it really well and I think it works better than even the 360 controller.

Always been a fan of the PS Duelshock, but i was in dead heat with that and the 360.

As for that list, Nintendo have made some of the crappiest controllers ever. The Gamecube controller looked like it was put together by children, as for the N64 why build a controller with 3 grips when we dont have 3 hands. And i hate the Wii, so that hasnt got a chance.

But i still love the Super Nintendo controller, spent countless hours playing Super Internation Cricket and Donkey Kong 2.

Edit: thats the PS1 and PS2 Duelshock, i hate the PS3 one

EDIT

i went with the 360 controller even though i honestly dont know if they can be compared, they are each used for the style of gameplay that their console is based on, the 360 controller is built for fps's such as halo, gears and COD, while the PS3 controller is more for fighting games such as Unreal Tournament and Tekken. so i really dont know if its possible to say which is BETTER
Unreal Tournament is not a fighting game.

The game cube and the Xbox 360 have always suited me nicely. Though, at this point, I'm far more used to the 360 controller, and it's come to fit my hands very well.

my favorite so far is def the 360 controller, the old nes controllers were good for the amount of buttons but would obviously not be able to handle the games today

Woah, just get those rubber grips for it. I think almost every controller has them, for you "death grippers".

Seriously, those controllers are expensive.

I said that the Dualshock 3 is my favorite console controller. You will be the first we execute when the revolution comes.

Apart from the D-pad, the 360 wins. The Game Cube controller misses out o the top spot for two reasons; It felt like I was going to break it if I got even a little rough with it, and the face buttons were wierd to use compared to the standard diamond layout.

Sorry. I really shouldn't have added the "'tard" part.

I'm just kinda tired of PC fanboys, is all. It just seems like they always poke their heads where they don't belong (namely, threads discussing CONSOLES)

And saying PC gamers are a "Master Race" isn't that funny.

Until the 360, my vote would have been for the Dual Shock. Now, I'm firmly in the camp of the 360's controller. I don't know who's hand the original xbox controller was desgined for, but they probably crush the heads of children for fun.

I don't get what's so good about Keyboard, I can understand the mouse being Godly though. The keyboard has the most number of buttons, but you can only move in 8 directions and go at 1 speed, that's why they have to use the shift key to switch between walking speed and running speed.

Keyboard+Mouse only excel in FPS and RTS games, but for everything else, a dual anolog controller beats K+M by far.

On topic: I agree that the Gamecube controller is god, but fail to see how the PS controller is shit.

I can't really speak for the others, as I have only played with 360 and original Xbox controllers. The 360 one is damn comfortable, though. I relented from voting, though, as those are the only ones I've used.
