Top 10 Best Controllers of All Time

10. Steel Battalion Controller (Xbox)

True, it may only work with one game – two if you count the now-defunct online counterpart Line of Contact – but the functionality of the Steel Battalion controller is unbelievable. It comes in a huge box and then folds out as a big dual-stick unit with dozens of buttons and a pair of foot pedals. It even comes with an "eject" button, in case you're not feeling confident in your robot's stability. If you still have an Xbox and $200, invest in this immediately – even if you need to set up a table in front of your television.

    I think the 360 controller is the most improved. Really in my opinion its tied for the best with the ps3 controller. I cant believe the wii controller or the dreamcast controller didnt make it, but 2 perhiperals did. (the racing controllers! oh and i forgot, the gun con) hey and really if you wanna get into it, the psp is a controller itself!

    I TOTALLY AGREE BC I LOVE MY 360 BUT I ALSO AGREE WITH THE GUY THAT MENTIONED THE DREAMCAST CONTROLLER!!!! THAT WAS DEFINETLY DESIGNED FOR COMFORT AS WELL! THAT WAS A GREAT CONTROLLER AND IT SHOULD DEFINETLY BE TOP TEN!

    The very fact that an GC controller is even on there screams foul.

    The only pain thing with the 360 controller is that you have to let go to right analog stick to use the buttons in a lot of online games I find this very frustrating.

    dreamcast shoulda been somewhere near the top. as for 360, thatd probably go 4th or 5th with that atari first. love that 1button action!

    The Wii remote and nunchuck aren't on here? Take off the guncon which is still a light gun ( La Nintendo NES Zapper) and put on the Wii controller.

    Mouse and keyboard should be number one

    Um just to clear things up. It's the SNES that first had L and R triggers not NES.
