My mate got one. I played him at Halo for about 45 minutes. This game rules! Even though I kept on dying in increasingly embarasiing ways. I also enjoyed watching him stroll through a level. Don't ask me what it was like, I wasn't paying attention :-)
Anyway, XBox isn't as bad as I thought, although I did at first have to put the controller ont he floor and use it like a keyboard.

I actually quite like XBox now. The controller isn't as big as it is made out. I think it's just because people are used to GC/PS2 pads which you can basically cover up with your hands. The controller is only big in comparison.

is it worth getting a controller s as I might get just one just to make my pad count to 4 but in my eyes the bigger will always reign supreme!

I use both pads depending on what game I'm playing. I tend to use the Controller S for Phantom Crash as I think it feels better for the game. But for games like Halo, I prefer the big controller. :-)

I like your attitude Mr D.

Most people think "Oh the Xbox controller looks massive" without even touching it, I think its actually quite comfatable and if others don't MS have gone one step further by releasing a smaller sized pad.

I assume its when the player is shot at and the controller rumbles around the table
