Poll: Xbox Controller or Controller-S?

Well, the new Controller-S is out, and I am curious who likes which controller better.

I currently have 2 of the regular controllers, as they fit my hand perfectly, but my pick up a Controller-S to try out, and as a 3rd controller.

I prefer the original. If the Japanese controller had the same diamond pattern for the buttons instead of the plus pattern like the PS2 controller, I would've liked it more than I did.

Recently bought an Xbox and i prefer the S controller by far. I think the original Xbox controller is one of the worst designed controllers ever.

The design of the original controller is very ergonomic, just one problem too big for my hand. I went ahead and bought the S-controller and I think its quite nice. They are both very good, just the S fits my hand better

I picked up the "s" but find the black and white buttons really hard to find on the fly. They seem to be recessed into the controller and pushing them seems to take a real effort. Original for me.

I have freakishly large hands. Give me the original, any day.

I purchased the s controler when i bought my xbox last week. I've used both and definately prefer the s controler. Maybe it's b/c its a little closer to the playstations controlers and thats what im used to.
