I really like the XBox's controller, mainly because of the analong sticks. the Analog sticks on XBox are argueably the most responsive, comfortable, and accurate. My problem with the PS2's analog sticks is that they feel just a little too loose and inaccurate. The face buttrons are practically the same, but I suppose I like the double shoulder buttons that I PS2 has.
In the end:
analog sticks:XBox
face buttons: PS2

Have you seen the controller for the Wii,Cyggie?

One day it will be mine, but for now... not really. I'm tempted at switching my reservation to the Wii and then getting a Wii when it comes out...

When the Wii comes out, I'll buy an obsolete used Gamecube for cheap with Smash, Windwaker, Twilight Princess, and Super Mario Sunshine.

Zelda is more of an action/adventure game although it does have some RPG elements. I'm replaying Majora's Mask at the moment.  I don't have the new one reserved, but I'm sure I'll be able to pick it up in stores pretty easily. If worst comes to worse, I will just wait (I'm used to waiting). I hope it's better than Wind Waker (which I never even finished).

The Deku Pipes were the coolest, they sounded like a Moogtron. I tried to play ELP songs. 
I picked the Zora, because I loved swimming through Great Bay, and playing the beaver race. The shield was really cool too. |
True as well. All things Zelda =  , and I've had my copy of Twilight Princess reserved for almost a year now.
