Xbox Controller Question and a small rant.

The Rant. ( The Question Follows ) I'll be clear. I can't stand the xbox controller. To the point that I do not play the xbox very often. I gritted my teeth thru Halo Reach, and that was the last time I played thru a game on the Xbox 360. Now that I have moved, I have met a whole crop of guys to play online with via the xbox, and would like to partake. Without using the monstrosity that is the 360 controller. The PS 3 controller fits better in my hands and does not cause me to cramp. The button placement is just easier to reach. And jesus fucking christ in a hand basket why in god's good name did Microsoft decide to offset the thumbsticks. Seriously. Microsoft Engineers. Put your hands in the neutral position. If your right thumb juts off at a 45 degree angle from the palm of your hand, you need to seek medical attention. Maybe its broken. Maybe the tendon dont work the way nature intended. Most peoples thumbs stay within 15 degrees or so of offset. Not only that, it is an artisticly displeasing. Yeah. Lets make it look edgey and shit with the offset thumbsticks. That's retarded like putting 3 20 inch wheels and 1 26 inch wheel on a god damn honda civic. Ooooh. Edgey and Practical! Mostly its just giving the shit car enough clearance to allow for that stupid muffler you attached to it so it sounds like a cracked out lawnmower. The PS 3 controller is superior in every way. Not trying to start a flame war, because I know some people are delusional over the the 360 controller. ( my wife for example) :D The Question Is there a controller out there using the PS 3 design on the 360 that anyone is aware of? I don't care if you have to dongle it to the usb slot, or if it connects wirelessly automatically. I just want an xbox 360 controller that uses the (inherently superior) PS 3 controller design. I have looked online, and managed to find a few interesting dongles you can add, but I one requires that you also have a wired x360 controller, the other doesn't seem to actually sell, but no controllers.

It's your lucky day. Lifehacker posted a video how to mod the xbox 360 controller for small hands.

Personally, the 360 controller is the nicest controlled I've used for my liking. PS3 controller is maybe better for fighting games, but I don't play those anyway.
