You all really need to keep up with each other's idiotic comments and quips. Otherwise you just make these threads look like fucking train wrecks of self-righteous stupidity.

Oh, too late.

No they didn't. Are you talking about triggers or something?

They're talking about the placement of the buttons. The designations.

Far be it from me to police the Xbone thread, but I'd recommend backing away slowly fellas.

Still don't know what they're talking about. Placement of what system, and what designations?

Can you go with them? I was merely making comments. If you don't like them, fine, but no need for your pompous attitude.

A&B, X&Y are flipped between the SNES controller and the Xbox controller.

Oh. Since I was never talking about button placement in the first place, I understand why I was confused. I was talking about the overall design. Guess chess and others have nothing better to do than to jump to conclusions based on nothing I was talking about.

You think you made a point here? Sorry, but no.

In my defense, those are two seperate systems that use simple names. What does Microsoft or Nintendo have to do with my displeasure of the ps controller? If you're able to answer, you win!

Yes they did. Chuck spelled it out for you since you can't be bothered to look at the picture you directly quoted and compare it to the "perfect controller" in your mind.

When did I call anything a "perfect controller"?

The names of the buttons are switched, did I ever dispute this or have a problem with this? Xbox never "changed" their button names. You're saying they have the same names as the snes controller but changed the placement. Those are two different points.

Re: The Ironically Thoughtless Xbox One Thread

Is that your way of speaking under your breath? What is this, a forum or a comic book?

No, there's a minimum character limit on the forum and it felt more appropriate than using " ".

Sadly I have a feeling that console version was the last console version we'll see. I'm sure they're doing just fine on Facebook, and it's a platform they can easily grow.
