Personally I don't have an XBox (and never do) but was wondering, HOW DO YOU PLAY GAMES WITH THOSE MASSIVE CONTROLLERS!

I always thought the best one was the N64, although it had the obvious disadvantage of only having the one stick.

the XBOX (large) controller is very good, although sometimes I wish the buttons were just a tad closer together.

yep

Personally, I think the Gamecube controller is the best. There might be a few problems with the placement of some of the buttons, but it's generally the most comfortable controller.

I think the original Xbox controller feels like you're holding a large china plate. The S is quite a bit better.

PS2 controller is average.

I think the original X-Box controller is the most comfortable available at the moment, after I used that then went back to the PS2 controller, I felt the PS2 controller was way too small, and the analogue sticks were terrible. And I've just never liked the GC controller, the buttons are all over the place and it feels very awkward to use.
