You signify how poor these boards are getting, with inane and trolling responses.
If the Six-Axis is 'pap' please tell everyone your reasoning as to say it?
Trolling response? Get real.
If you really want me to regurgitate all the reasons that have already been posted in this thread (as well as others) then I will do so..
Firstly, it feels cheep. Really cheap. Like a mouse that you can pick up for a fiver cheap. Apparently the DS3 has a much sturdier, better quality feel, which will be good but the Sixaxis really feels like a few pieces of cheap plastic poorly put together.
Then of course there's the godawful triggers. People say 'ps1 pads were OK', or 'well nothing's changed since the PS2 pad, and that was OK..', but they seem to fail to realise that neither of these pads had triggers.
A big downer for me personally is the deadzones. They are huge. Apparently this too has been rectified with the DS3, but as it is there are large areas in the middle of the analogue sticks which I find I have to compensate for, particularly when playing FPS games.
If the controller was fine, and the majority were happy with it, then magazines wouldn't be giving away cheap modifications that make the controller more usable.
It's a modified, outdated design that has been (in the case of the Sixaxis) poorly implemented. So yes, 'pap'.
Few, if any consoles have had their controller overhauled and replaced within the first year of release, such as is the case with the Sixaxis, so it can hardly be called a rip-roaring success.
