Thats how I feel too. I have both the regular controller and the smaller one, the S Pad or whatever it's called. The smaller one is ok, but the regular one is awesome. The only reason I bought the smaller one is because my friend hates the big ones.
I used to like the PS2 controller but after getting used to the Xbox controller, it seems cheap and way too small.
By far the best controller ever was the Dreamcast controller! It fit my hands perfectly. I wish I wouldn't have sold my Dreamcast, it was an awesome system with a ton of great games.
Chaos, did you try hooking it up to a different TV yet? I'm curious to see if that was the problem.
Cho, I wouldn't say that buying the PS2 was the problem, it's an excellent system. You can't argue with a library of games like that. The only thing I don't like is that there isn't an internal hard drive, so you have to buy the super expensive memory cards and they fill up quick. I guess the new DVD remote thing eats up 2MB of the 8MB on a memory card! Socom Navy Seals takes like 3MB!
I know you can get the 3rd party ones that hold like 30MB, but they always get screwed up and you lose your game saves. I only buy the official stuff, that goes for controllers too. I've lost too many saves to shitty cards. In my experience, most 3rd party controllers blow too.
I've filled up my PS2 memory card and have had to delete stuff to make room. On my Xbox, I've got everything saved with a shitpile more room to go. It still says I have 50,000 blocks left! I do have a memory card for my Xbox, but that only has a few things on it. It's damn near empty. Come to think of it, I don't know why I ever bought it!
