Where would games be without controllers? Nowhere, that's where. We'd probably be restricted to arcades, where a pocket of quarters would be lost in about twenty minuets. So I started tot think about controllers, what what were the best.
5: Nintendo 64 Controller:
At first glance, the N64 controller leads to reactions along the lines of "WTF!?" Regardless of how odd it looks, it turned out to be a really good controller. Although I'll admit that the directional buttons were hardly ever used, and the analog stick kind of felt stiff at times, it was still a great an inventive controller.
4: The Wiimote and Numchuck:
It really isn't the controller that's bad, it's the crazy crap that developers try and make it do. The wiimote and numchuck are fairly good controllers if you leave it to just simple shacking and such. My only complains are how the 1 and 2 buttons are way the hell out of reach, meaning that nothing too useful can ever be mapped to them. And not to mention that the speaker is ****. But even though it has these flaws, it's still a fairly good controller.
3: Xbox 360 Wireless Controller
I may give the 360 a lot of crap, but I don't hate it. I actually really like it's controller. It's lightweight, wireless, and has a really good layout. My only complains are the that the left and right bumpers feel like you have to press them harder than you have to, and that it eats through batteries faster than a Gameboy color.
2: The Gamecube controller:
Another odd looking controller from Nintendo, but like the other ones it works. It fits really comfortably in your hands, and while the whole "big A button tiny B button" thing looks kind of weird at first, it works because it's hard to get them confused. And... wow, now that I think about it I don't have any complains about something in my life. I feel.... strange.
1: The Playstation 2 Duelshock 2
this is my favorite out of all of the controllers ever made. First off, it's a little bigger than the previous model, so it's easier on the hands. The buttons feel great and well placed, the control sticks feel really good and not stiff. And... well, I can't think of anything I don't like about the Dualshock 2.
