I hated the Xbox controller when it first came out, probably because my child-sized hands couldn't reach the buttons comfortably. So it was Playstation style for a long time.
Now as an adult I've switched over to the Xbox style (easier to plug and play for Steam gaming) and I like it a lot. It feels a lot more durable than any other controller I can remember using. Though I feel the size and weight of the controller makes it slightly more difficult to use the bumper and trigger buttons compared to PS controllers, it's not a big deal because I'm not playing FPS these days.
