Still, nothing tops the Gun Metal DS3 and PS3.

Barf. I dislike the every iteration of the DualShock. It's all based on an afterthought on the PS1 controller -- basically, "oh crap, we need analog sticks because the N64 has it". The controller layout is clearly catered to using everything effectively but the analog sticks.

The design made sense as an optional add-on for the PS1, where most games wouldn't use the analog sticks. It didn't make sense to carry over this terrible design to the PS2 and PS3.

Microsoft's original Xbox controller was pretty terrible too (in my opinion), but at least they realized it and improved.

They hate it because they don't have one.

I've never understood why Microsoft, Sony & Nintendo can charge so much for their controllers if they are mass produced and sold to millions of people? I see why consoles are priced at a reasonable 300-400 dollars, but why is it that the controllers cost 40-50 dollars (depending on where you buy it). Even after the console has been out for a long time. Strange.
