Most people complain to me that the xbox controller is too big, or there fingers car'nt fit round it. I find the xbox the most comfatable controller ever!, the various controls are east to find and the 2 joysticks are postion perfectly. The shoulder buttons are comfatable and people moan to me that games that use the black and white buttons are annoying because there hands cannot reach there, my hands can, i find them with relative ease, In halo the white button is your flashlight so i say stop moaning about the controller and enjoy the excellent power of the xbox and its brilliant games!

From xbox.ign.com :-
Nyko innovates with an anti-sweat controller, the Air Flo. PS2, Xbox, and GCN models to come.

May 16, 2002 - Nyko Technologies unveiled today the first anti-sweat controller, the Air Flo, for PlayStation 2, Xbox, and GameCube.
Using Nyko's patented, dual-speed Air Flo technology, the new controllers push air through the controller grips, preventing controllers from becoming sticky and wet.

The controllers feature rubberized grips, a 10-foot cable and other regular features, including dual analog control sticks, 8-way D-pad, built-in variable vibration function, and pressure sensitive analog buttons. The Air Flo controller for Xbox highlights dual expansion slots for two memory cards.

The Air Flo controllers for PlayStation 2 and Xbox will be available in July 2002, while the GameCube version will appear in October. The Air Flo will debut at E3 next week.

[I got the chance to feel one of these things last week. While I am not ready to make a judgment yet, it worked pretty damn well. Expect to see a full review of the entire line shortly after E3.]




I'd prefer if microsfot made this type of controller....Make it an Official one

i find the controller extremly comfatable, a smaller controller would suck, in my opinion...

Oh yeh apparently, some company is releasing a controller called "air flo" where small jets release air around the various controls to cool our thumbs down....

Yeah I'm fine with the buttons too. I think the smaller controller has this solved for players like you as well fosbe. Might just be the way the picture looks, but the buttons seem to be a little more spaced apart. :-)
