On Wednesday I got my Cube. I was (obviously) very happy and I went home with it and played. I got two extra controllers (Unofficial- 4Gamers) and of course an official one it cam with. So here are my views on the controllers.
**Official**
Very Very Nice. Fits around the hand nicely and it is small too. Plus it has hardly anyspace inside. As if they vacum packed th wires. This makes it light and good on the hands. A button is great, Big and round easy to press. B button has a little getting use to.Because it is next to the A button u have to becareful when trying to press both at the same time. Small and round means no accidental presses. X and Y are similar in shape but slightly different in placement. They are very easy to get to and ar quite large in size to help with quick games. Z button is on the right side of the controller acting ac a shoulder button. It is quite large and has a little bump on it so U know it is that button when U are not looking. L and R are the trigger like buttons. The a pressure so U can push it in softly for, let say, low acceleration and hard for fast acceleration. Plus if u push it in all of the way it makes a button like pressing noise. The analogue stick is good. It doesn't stick at all and flows smoothly as anything. The C stick is the same. And the D-Pad is tiny. Altough very useful and sesitive to your touch. And last but most important Start button. It is small and round but away from all of the other buttons so you only press start. Can be got to quickly and smoothly.
**Non-Official**
Like the official one except these things. It has turbo capability and a light to see if it is on. It is slightly fatter than the official but it doesn't make much difference. The B button is shaped like the X and Y buttons. And the best (I think) Is that U can change the front plate. This is either Black or Silver.
**Memory**
My memory cards are unofficial but are great. They are tiny about 3.7cm by 3.5cm and are good. They fit into the console well and are very hard to brake. They hold 59 blocks and my Burnout game only takes 4 of those. So I have a lot of spare memory.
And the best thing is I got the Unofficial Controller, Memory Card (4Mb) and a game holder (8 discs and nettting for up to 6 memory cards) all for
£25. VERY VERY NICE.

I got my official memory card from Argos for just £12.99, I thought they were £14.99, guess not eh :0)

I bought everything official, otherwise my mates moan at me for giving them the lame controller...
