Yeah, I have an official US 'S' controller, and one of the initial Japanese 'S' controllers, imported from NCSX.com and I definitely prefer the Japanese version to the US one cuz of the buttons (the triggers also have a slightly different feel to them, the US version is a little more stiff I think).
I think the arms on the Japanese S are thinner and not as "full" as the US version. I like the overrall feel of the Japanese S better as well, but I'm still lobbying for something in-between...maybe an "American M" version (medium ).

I picked up one of the refurb xbox's that came with the original controller, and I've got to say I'm pretty happy with it. Now when I go back to my ps2, the controller feels small and cramped, sort of like trying to "write" with a pda stylus.
Am I the only one who likes the big controller?

two things... fyi, cause its not on the list yet: max payne is 26.99 at compusa.com
2nd order of business: are you sure the compusa add is saying 10 off any xbox game? the way i read it, you get 12 off ghost recon w/ purchase of xbox live, or 10 off any other game if u purchase it w/ xbox live... i could be wrong, though... i sure hope i am
I would prolly do the Buy.com deal with the $20 off $200 for new customers.Originally posted by: xxxxxJohnGaltxxxxx
Which deal is best for people who plan to buy an X-Box? ...was thinking the Cosco one:
Xbox Sega bundle, 2nd S controller, DVD Playback kit - Costco.com - $239.99 (posted 12-05-02)
Not sure I need the DVD Playback, but might in the future
If you want Live support, then Fever or Sega's NFL2K3 are your only options right now. Madden does not support Live (thanks EA...ya asshats! :|)Also, I hear NFL Fever or something like that is better than Madden...any thoughts as to the best F-Ball game for the X-Box?

Anyone know how this works on the web? It's available, but the site is very vague. Do you basically get a GC that works at the website? Or do you get an actual card that has to be used at the B&M store?$10 GC instantly with Panzer Dragoon Orta @ $49.99

Thanks for the info, TallGeese...yea, looking for one that supports 'Live' when I purchase one, so I guess Madden is out

That CompUSA thing is a nice deal. How is Ghost Recon? Worth $39.99?
Thanks, but after reading some reviews and replaying the demo last night, I'm gonna take it back. While some stuff is very cool (hot chick, no-limit bullet time, lots of blood), other details are really rough (funky controls, clipping issues, so-so graphics) and even with the rebate, I'd rather play Buffy or hang out at goth clubs instead.Originally posted by: sxr7171

I went to CC tonight to pick up Bloodrayne and get the 110% adjustment and it was priced at $49.99. Sweet, I'll get $2.50 back tomorrow, but when they scanned it, it came up at $29.99. Oh well, only gonna get 50 cents, but TallGeese may want to note that the regular price is $29.99 now at CC.
You may want to get that from EB since EB is offering the game at $29.99 and they are offering a $20 EB gift coupon by mail for BloodRayne

Thanks for the tip, though.
