    Default Duke or S?

    What is the best controller..... I am sure that duke is so much more popular. Not everybody has "little hands"

    I like my Halo edition S-Type, followed by my Microsoft Japanese Import S-Type.

    I am an average sized person and I think the S-Type is just fine. I've used the Dukes before, and its not bad or anything, but I just like the S-types.

    S all the way. On duke, when I go to melee, I always jump instead.

    I perfer the S controller, I have one with the extra black and white buttons on top, alot better and easier than finding the little black and white buttons. The only thing I don't like about any of the controllers is the D pad wears out way to easy, I have three controllers two that won't go left and one that won't go right

    Duke is the origonal right?

    Anyway, yea, I still love the duke. My little bro bought a controller S because he has smaller hands, but I've always found it a bit cramped. The XYBA feel to seperated IMO, and I could never get used to the placement of the other buttons. It really just has to do with the size of your hand I guess.

    I like both of them. It just takes me a little time to adjust to each of them when I'm switching back and forth.

    As a man with extra large hands, I can confortably say that both controllers seem to accomodate the bulk of my hands with equal skill (neither one of them does that great a job though), and the S might even do better since it seems big in all the right places.

    I used to say that both were good for me but I find myself using the S all the time. The thing that makes me love S is the buttons. I like the round sorta flat-topped shape versus the Dukes oval bubbled out feel.

    I loved my Duke until the S came out. Now I have six S controllers and no Dukes.

    The s, I think that the grip in the big one is better but the niormal buttons, or the main buttons are not good , and the black and white buton are in the right place and not in a place (like the big one..) that u can press them suddenly, like in nija gaiden.. I am thinking of buying a S ...

    what I meant is that in the big one the black and white are in a very bad postion, while in the S controller they are in a very good place, and can
    t be pressed suddenly like in the big one ..

    Thats one of the biggest gripes I have about the S, is the black and white buttons just feels so....out of place. But that probably just because of my longish fingers. In order to press them I almost have to move my thumb back, down and press. Where with the duke I only have to go up and press. I've also found that the S's YXBA buttons seem a little to far apart, so to me it almost feels as if I lose some resposiveness and lose like 20ms personal ping...which can make a difference.
