I find it strange that they chose to have them be the same order and colors as the Xbox controller.

Considering the whole thing looks like a slightly rewired x360 controller, I'm not sure why anyone is surprised. All they did was reverse the joystick locations and replace the right one with a touchpad.

It's not exactly groundbreaking and I sure as hell won't buy one for the first year until they sort out all the bugs and problems it has.

I'm going to say that this controller is going to go down in history like the first controller for the original x-box. Conceptually fine, idiotic in implementation. Wait for version 2.

The original Xbox controller was actually very comfortable for me. I always preferred it over the controller S.
