XBOX GAME CONTROLLER review

Classic Game Room reviews the XBOX GAME CONTROLLER, the big fat one that first came with the original Xbox! This CGR video review looks at the Xbox Game Controller, the big fat one that came packed in with the North American Xbox. Many players find the original, old school Xbox Controller to be the most comfortable, especially those with large hands. The Xbox gamepad has two analog triggers for driving games like Forza and shooters like Halo, as well as the usual compliment of Xbox buttons.

Best Line: "I guess the big one was made for us Americans, with our giant fat hands."

when i was 14 years of age my best friend threw my skateboard on my couch and then sat on it, with the original xbox controller under it, some how it broke... tear

[thekid20x6]

the fat controller to me has to do with the rumors that is sometimes hard to prove that microsoft used dreamcast tech to make the x-box and improved it (some people say, but its all rumors but i think it did happen that the president of sega went to microsoft to help the dreamcast not die and showed alot of the specs, so people think microsoft stole them afterwards)

the original x-box controller looks so like a dreamcast controller and feels the same (except being a little heavier)

After this video, that controller became beleamic (or however you spell it).

The Duke will forever be my favorite controller no matter what you say : D

Actualy we missing something here whyy on earth do we need memory card ports on the controlers since our machine HAS A HARD DRIVE? Thats why that controler is so big bot because the logo but because of the memory card slots,Like dreamcast because they made it to have the memory card inside of it microsoft think hey its a good idea to put it like they did.Thast why ergonomicaly it is not good for our hand,its still better than the dream cast's but still big as a pig.Ps3-2-1 are the best by far.

I prefer the PS2 ones by far.

I found the smaller one way better when I switched to it, and not just because of the size. The main 4 buttons are wider and flatter which is easier on the fingers, they're better spaced out, and they didn't need such a firm push - a real help in hectic gameplay. I also much prefer the positions of the other buttons - all very handy - and prefer the thumbsticks too. The giant would be better for knocking someone unconscious in a tight spot, but that's the best I'll say for it.
