Microsoft,wassap with you?; You know that in years B4, PS3 was more xpensive than XB360 and that was your advantage and was one of the reason why you sold more XB360 for that time.

The PS 4 controller, as well as its predecessors is not as ergonomically suited to my hands as the XBox controllers.

If Sony had made an ergonomically pleasing controller suited to bigger hands, I would surely have purchased a PS 4.

I would willingly have paid more for a better controller.

The current one makes game play more difficult than it needs to be.

I have a similar, but different issue with the xbox controller: I cannot get used to the d pad where the other knob should be. PS controller is a little on the smaller side, but at lease I can use it easier than the xbox one. MS one does not feel right to me. I guess I need to learn.....

What's wrong with your hands that they don't work as well as most others'? ;-)

Many equally hate the standard Xbox controllers, finding them awkward to use or just not feeling right.
