The science behind the Xbox Controller and why the left thumbstick placement is superior
I will die on this hill till the end of time. The ps5 controller is the the most comfortable of all Playstation controllers but will never compare to Xbox due to left joystick location.

[Hogg] Everyone please pour one out for my mans here. Nothing happened to him, he’s just had to diligently operate the pitch clock for 450 pitches over 3.5 hours, and this game ain’t even close to over yet. And, yes, they use an XBox controller for the pitch timer here.
Microsoft has already spent an obscene amount of money developing an ergonomic controller, why fix what isn’t broke lol. I’ve heard the military uses Xbox or PlayStation controllers for certain things for that very reason

Steam Controller Pcgamer Review : 83/100
i read one review that said it’s ergonomics aren’t great, likely due to hand size. my hands are small (i wear child sized gloves) and the xbox controller is really uncomfortable for me. but my OLED steam deck is real comfy. idk

Steam Controller Price Leaked By Early Review - and It’s Expensive
If it comes with a solid warranty period i might go for it. It seems pretty close to an "end game" pc controller to me and a big upgrade from my 5 year old xbox wireless controller. How good the track pads are is my biggest concern.
