    Wider Xbox controller for better comfort


    Hello,

    I am not sure if this was ever mentioned but I personally would really like a wider xbox controller to help it be more comfortable in my hands. I think 1 or 2 inches wider would be helpful for me. Does anyone make this? My body is wider then normal people and when i hold the controller it gives me pain in my joints.



    Just a thought to see what others think and to see if maybe there is a better option for me.



    thanks,

    Joe

    WHY CAN'T WE HAVE A DECENT XBOX 360 CONTROLLER???

    [quote user="Emmp1"]
    Now correct me if I'm wrong but I've never seen a decent Xbox controller, if you know one and where I can buy it, please leave a link below please!

    Now to Xbox Team I speak to you, why cant we have a controller like this: http://www.engadget.com/photos/snakebyte-tablet-gaming-controller-hands-on

    Now really, its a perfect controller, you just need to switch the left joystick and the D-pad and have separated buttons for the D-pad and its a perfect Xbox Controller.

    Notice that this controller is wider for a better grip & comfort and the back of it is flat for great ease & comfort and the bumpers are straight instead of curved, because curved bumpers make your fingers slide off so easily and the bumper should not pivot
    like they do in the current Xbox controllers but they should slide up and down like the PlayStation controllers, also on these controllers there is no battery pack in the back that can block your fingers and the back is flat for great comfort and long hours
    of gameplay, but most importantly the triggers needs to be half an inch further back of the controllers so that our fingers can rest on them easily in a natural position with ease & great comfort and there you have it a perfect Xbox controller!

    Hope the next controller for the next generation Xbox (Xbox 720) will have all those features in it!



    Please community tell me what you think of this controller!

    [/quote]I like everything about the Xbox controller other than the d-pad and build quality...

    Would xbox be willing to make a controller with semetrical joysticks

    My thumb lays naturally towards the xbox Dpad not the joystick, plus the xbox controller is almost to small for my hands so I have to roll my thumb forward to even get to the joystick on the left side. The playstation controller is thicker and and wider which fits my hand size better. So my thumbs rest more naturally with its joysticks.

    [quote user="ArmyMedic75"]

    my main concern with the controller is the placement of the analog sticks although Im sure I will adapt but if a 3rd party controller based off the 360 or Ones design comes out definitely picking it up lol

    [/quote]

    Don't worry about it. That has been my main issue with the DualShock since it's inception. The placement of the sticks is far better given how you hold the prongs. Plus the sticks are placed wider apart so it felt really comfortable and the triggers are
    great. Haven't used it in anger or anything, but I can see how it might be my new favourite controller EVER. Obviously though I haven't held the X1 pad yet, and last gen the Xbox 360 pad was my favourite. But the DS4 is a massive upgrade over the DS3.

    How did it feel the first time you hold a 360 controller after the Original Xbox controller?

    Depressing because I owned the controller, but my Xbox still hadn't come in yet.

    .

    Anyways, to answer your question for real. It felt good. The Duke controller is on par with the Dreamcast controller as being the worst controller of all time. The "S" controller was much much better, but still not nearly as nice and comfortable as it should've
    been.

    The Difference Is I dont Cheat

    So by your logic , Someone using a comfortable chair is cheating because they are relaxed Or someone with bigger hands is cheating because they have a better grip on the controller?
