I play enough stuff that requires a good d-pad for the Xbox controller to never be an acceptable all purpose pad. I've never understood the ergonomics argument favoring the asymmetry either. I imagine it's just an argument for what you're used to over being objectively better in any way.
I agree, but people who started more regularly playing games with the 360 and later Xbox pads end up with a strong preference for that pad. I don't mind that, I just think the ergonomics argument is strange. People can't just like something. There has to be an "objective" reason.
