Best XBox controller?

I have big hands too, but the S controller's joysticks and buttons are much more thumb-friendly than the Big Kahuna controller.

Don't play button-mashers that often. The higher resistance in the triggers on the Duke is far superior for games like Rallisport Challenge 2.
 
japan has another version of the controller-s. it's a bit smaller and costs like $40 in the US. microsoft manufactured it specifically for the japanese because their hands tend to be smaller.
 
My biggest problem with the original controller, which I own 4 of, is that the black and white buttons are just too far to easily hit. I need to get me an S
 
The black and white buttons are too hard to hit in the S-controller, but i guess thats the tradeoff for having a smaller controller :frown:

The same thumb used to do the moving. It's very inconvenient, and a bad idea when some games don't allow mapping.


I'm for the big controllers too. I found using the S's triggers for any amount of time in racing games made my fingers very sore since everything was so close together and scrunched. The Duke let's you spread out. It's like a Civic vs. a Cadillac I guess. 😀
 
Once you go wireless you never go back. A 2 pack of Pelican wireless controllers are $40 at Costco. They're fantastic and just as responsive as a corded one.
