Are asymmetrical joysticks better?
Result of the experiment showed that there were significant differences between the two types of console controllers in completion time and number of errors. The asymmetrical controller (the Xbox 360) resulted in better performance than the symmetrical controller (PlayStation 3) did.
Are Xbox and PlayStation Joysticks the same?
The right Xbox controller joystick is in the same place as PlayStation's, but the left joystick and the cross shaped button swap places. Like I said, the cross button and left joystick swap; Playstation's joysticks are right next to each other and the cross button is in the top left.
Which controller has better thumbsticks?
The Xbox One controller has more efficient thumbsticks than the DualShock 4 due to the texture. This small but effective feature makes it difficult for your thumbs to slip off the controller. The DualShock 4 features a similar design, but it is less effective.
Why are Xbox controllers shaped like that?
It's more comfortable to wrap your fingers around the controller and not have them straight. They may look weird at first, but it's pretty ergonomic for most people's hands.
