GameTrailers video editor: "The 360 controller is a far superior gaming device than the Sony controller"

A GameTrailers.com video editor, "Dblock," has put his nuts in the vice, as it were, and written on the site about how he feels Xbox 360's control system is "far superior" to PS3's. As you'd expect, the post has caused something of a "backlash".

From the piece:

Look, I'm sick of all the kerfluffle about how GT is biased towards 360 and how GT favors 360 and how GT hates on PS3. That ends now! The fact remains that 360 has just released better content than PS3. Period. See what I did there? I put a period after Period. That means conclusion; the end of discussion. The reason why GT gives 360 games better scores in the reviews is because the games are simply better experiences. The main reason for this--and it is often an overlooked and underestimated one--is because the 360 controller is a far superior gaming device than the Sony controller.

He's added a caveat at the bottom on the passage saying his views don't reflect those of GameTrailers as a site. Full thing, including more than 400 angry comments, through the link.
