  Everyone forgets how big that sucker really is.

  And how it was a blatant copy of the Dreamcast controller.

    If you really digest everything Microsoft does, it’s all stealing or acquiring and making worse.

    I really liked The Duke. It was one of the first controllers that actually fit well in my large adult size hands!

    Because the Xbox was built in secret while Microsoft and Sega collaborated on the Dreamcast. It’s actually somewhat compatible with Dreamcast games but MS never wanted to allow that feature.

    Also the Duke is the only comfortable controller I have ever used.

    The Dreamcast controller is ugly as sin but surprisingly comfortable to hold. It must have the widest delta between looks and ergonomics of any controller.

    The smaller (now regular) 360 controller killed those black and white buttons.

      It just moved them, and I’m glad they did

      I miss them. But I guess I’m in the minority on that one.

    The logo circle is so big and vulgar it looks like a fake gucci bag. It’s great they got rid of that.

  Using the white and black buttons on the Duke without moving your entire hand nets you an achievement.
