It's possible there was something else involved, but between me and the one friend I play madden most consistently with, the player with that controller was significantly affected. We both do a lot of relatively high precision passes and it seemed to provide much less control.

I have big hands.. The Sony controller just doesn't fit right.

Isn't the Xbox controller more compressed than the playstation's? The handles are fatter but I could swear your hands have to be much closer together to use it.

Something else to consider:

I was looking around to see if there were numbers on the precision issues I found and that was one suggestion provided. It's out of stock and you would obviously need a different part for the next gen, but it may make it fit your hand better without the loss of responsiveness. The forum that suggested it did have similar issues to what I did with the sticks, so that is something to consider depending on how seriously you play.

Meh. Even with all the negative press ima buy the Xbox one. I think it will still be a good console. None of the changes effect me much.

Xbox One Needs To Connect To The Internet Every 24 Hours For Gaming

Finally got a straight answer on internet connectivity. The system has to access the internet at least once in 24 hours. If it doesn't, you can't play games.

There's also another article on the site about Microsoft attempting to clear up the Kinect always on issue but its still murky.

Nothing really news worthy so far from Microsoft at E3 other than the XB1 is $500. That's pretty steep.
