The only thing Sony's controller is perfect for is THPS. It needs analog buttons, and move the d-pad where it belongs. Sony, say hello to the 21st century. We no longer use the d-pad for 99% of games.

And Null, you obviously missed the numerous gamers who had Xbox's with HD failures, and either sold the Xbox, or the game because they didn't want to start over. Many gamers, including myself, don't want to play the game, we want to play OUR game. A lot of today's games (at least with Xbox) are online, and not all the games put everyone on an equal playing field. Don't even think about competing in MotoGP or MotoGP 2 unless you max our your bike stats. Want the good weapons in Ghost Recon? Earn them. Want to race as the Speed 12 in Project Gotham Racing 2? Get all Platinum medals, and there's about 100 of them. No one who has earned all Platinums in PGR2 would ever touch the game with Xbox 2 if they couldn't transfer their saves.

And when PS5 comes out, in the maybe 1 time in 5 years I'll play a PSX game, I'll hook the system up.
