Xbox 360 Controller for windows is way better in my opinion. If you want a PS3 styled Controller try the official FFXIV one.

I have that, but unfortunately mine was poor quality. The rest position for the sticks would be a smidge up, so the camera would intermittently look at the floor when it shouldn't. Turning down sensitivity didn't cure it, neither did calibration. The sticks actually felt central, so not really sure what the problem was. Presumably dodgy wiring inside. Makes a nice ornament now though^^

After that, I ended up using my 360 wireless controller. I had a wireless receiver that I got with a Microsoft headset which worked with it, so I was lucky enough to have a decent option with no additional cost. Never had even a slight problem with the X360 controller.

This is getting to be pretty exciting. Beta is just around the corner and these screenshots and sound clips have been quite interesting.

As for the OP and trying to decide what Yoshida was holding I would have said PS3 controller because the UI screenshots for PS3 looked almost exactly like the screenshot from this developers blog. This could also be the controller UI though for the PC, either way its a good sign for progress and the nearing of all things good for FFXIV:ARR.

Take care when buying one though. Most of the ones on ebay are Chinese knockoffs, so best to buy one in person if you can or make sure it's an original if buying on-line.

Got a chinese one here as well, so far there isn't anything wrong with the controller but the RB Button doesn't feel right lol. It's about 2 months old now. So.. yea you gotta be careful!
