Released November, 2005
The Pros:Very nice ergonomics - fits well in hand. Many buttons, triggers, and thumbstick controls. Wireless.
The Cons:No motion/orientation sensors like the Wiimote or Sixxaxis controllers. Rechargeable battery costs extra. D-pad feels 'mushy' and you can accidentally get diagonal directions you didn't want.
