it fits the hands so much better than the dual shock or xbox S/360 pad it's ridiculous
I guess this is different for everyone because the shape is terrible for me. The grips are so thin, they are practically useless, but I don't mind much because I normally just hold controllers using the pressure of my hands vs actually gripping them.
But the worst part is the sticks. The main stick is so flimsy and the plastic spiky top is not comfortable. It makes a cool sound when it's all clackity clack, but still. The C-stick is ****ing bad. It's too small, and it feels completely different from the main stick, so there's no real synergy in control there. D-pad is bad, like you mentioned. You can't even click in the sticks, either.
But the worst part for me really is the shoulder buttons. The triggers are SO terrible squeeze in. It's like an entire centimeter you need to squeeze to get it completely in. The Z button is just sitting there all alone, too, making you use your right middle finger for the right trigger when you might want to use your index finger.
Face buttons are fine, but that's it. They aren't even analog. Honestly I don't know why this isn't a standard already. Maybe Sony patented it or something? Because IIRC, only the DS2 and 3 have analog face/shoulder buttons. Sure, pretty much only MGS actually uses the analog functions, but it's great to have that.
