Playstation 2 always struggled with FPS games whilst Xbox never did, same can and is said about Xbox360. The closeness of the 2 joysticks, the left stick being too low, the pad being too small and the triggers being abysmal all count against the PS3 controller.

An argument between the 360 pad and the PS3 about which is better for FPS is like arguing whether a bottle of shampoo or a tube of a pringles is better for playing football with

Almost as annoying as the utter lack of ability of anyone on here to take a bloody light hearted joke for what it is.

I hope you're directing that comment at yourself, as the wink in my post indicated I was joking.
