Dpad. It's way more accurate, which is great for fighting games.

That is one of the pros, the con is that your fingers get sore and tired easily.

That's true. The morons at Sony designed the D-pad as four seperate buttons.

acctualy, the D-Pad is one "plate". It tips to select the direction. this makes it physicaly impossible, for example, to push <-- and --> at the sam time. that makes it impossible to play DDR with it, i know because i have tried. :meh:

Oh yea...it does tip to the side, but still not as comfortable as the analog sticks. Analog sticks = racing games. BEST EVER. Or the steering whell thing...Now that kicks ass.

The D-pad is much better for racing games than analog sticks. Same principle. Better accutacy.
