I'm partial to the MadCatz Dual Force Analog, but I have to give the nod to Sony for making the most compatible analog controllers for the Playstation.

Sony's controllers really are the only ones that are 100% compatible with all Playstation...

Cons: a bit heavy, weird and short grips, analog sticks can stick after a while, buttons can stop working, & a bit expensive
