    Dualshock 2 was my favorite until the PS4 came out, which meant the appearance of Dualshock 4. I really despise the XBOX controllers, they have a weird shape.

    XBOX controllers do have a weird shape, but they are surprisingly comfortable. I owned every PS and to be honest I don't notice much difference between various dualshock controllers, except that the build quality has been getting worse and worse over time.

    I find the Dualshock controllers to be the most comfortable and easiest to use. I'm not a big fan of other controllers. The appearance of the Dualshock four is not all that different than the previous dual shock. They added a few things here and there, but I find them rather useless.

    I personally don't care, although I prefer the size of Xbox controller because my hands are maybe bigger a little bit and this size fits me perfectly. I do concede that Dualshock 4 is better than Dualshock 3. Not sure how it compares to Dualshock 2, though, I loved gaming on that thing.

    What's the difference? They all pretty much have the same shape. DS 4 is a little different but not much.

    Dualshock 2 is a little smaller isn't it? Or am I remembering it wrong? I haven't actually held a Dualshock 2 in years so I might have been wrong on that one.

    I think you're right, frankly I don't remember since I don't have a Dualshock 2 laying around here but it was comfortable to keep in the hand.

    Maybe your hand was smaller, since you were younger? :D

    I don't remember it being smaller at all. I'm gonna have to dig it out and see.

    Well, check it and let us know, we're dying to know :D
    You're seriously messing with my mind now, I think I remember it being smaller because I was surprised at how big Dualshock 4 was.

    Ok I just checked and while Dual Shock 1 - 3 seem pretty much the same as far as dimensions are concerned, Dual Shock 4 is not as wide as its predecessors but is otherwise larger.
