Just like the original 'Duke' Xbox controller... they had people testing it... doesnt mean its perfect. Short time later Microsoft launched the Controller S which is far more comfortable, and now is the standard xbox controller. If Sony is smart, they will come out with a newer version of the controller that does not look like a boomarang, and you can just look at it and say "That looks comfortable."

Seriously when I first saw the PS3 controller, I thought it was a good thing, because it just seemed vastly inferior to the xbox 360 controller, and I am rooting for Microsoft in this next round of consoles. Now weres my damn TES IV Oblivion??? Hurry up already.
