I personally think Xbox controller is the best for me. |

What, the OG huge Xbox controller? I couldn't use that at all :S I'd probably say PS3 - The pre-dualshock affair. I just like the lightweight feel of it |

The Classic Controller for the Wii is awesome, and then maybe the ps3 controller. |

It is hard for me to pick an out and out favorite because I am pretty comfortable with them all. But I will say this - I can not stand wireless controllers. I just grew up with my controllers having cords and I like that old school feel. I mean really, who needs to be 50 ft away from their console to warrant a controller needing to be wireless. Okay off soapbox. I can say my least favorite is the N64 controller. It looks like an alien from mars created that thing and it is a little cumbersome plus the fact that the analog stick feels really wonky on certain games. |

I will have to go with the original 3 button Genesis controller. Its very comfortable to hold, its the perfect size with nice big buttons. I found the D-pad very easy to use for games like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. |

Snes controller will always be my favourite, always. I'm sad that through each generation Nintendo has revamped their controller to look so much different than the last. Take the N64 controller, not the greatest. Than the Gamecube controller, an improvement by far, I loved it, and now with the Wii, again a completely different look. Sony has pretty much kept the same concept for a very very long time, only changing to add analogs. Same goes for the Xbox, however the 360 controller improved upon the big waste of bulk that the original xbox had. I'm quite fond of the 360 controller, I just find that little added weight, the way the triggers are designed and the analogs being on different levels help me out with more shooter intensive games. When I switch over to the PS3 controller it just seems too light, and there have been a few times I set the controller down to get some cola and the trigger fire off by themselves.  I do really enjoy Sony's controller don't get me wrong, like Nintendo has inspired other companies to have that same sort of button layout and control scheme, Sony has influenced the whole analog thing. My only gripe is the trigger buttons are curved too much downward and don't contain much of a grip, otherwise it's perfect. |

For shooters it is by far the 360 controller. For RPGs and Platformers though it goes to the ps3. |
