    I've always used the tips of my thumbs when using the thumbsticks, but I just recently realized that lots of people use them differently. Do you use the middle joint of your thumb, tip of your thumb, or right in between those two?

    I use the middle. Probably because my thumbs are double jointed, so they curve up naturally when I'm playing.

    I have gigantic thumbs, so I think I am going to go with the thumb tips one.

    My left thumb is double jointed, but I still prefer to play with the tip. :)

    Tips of the fingers are more accurate for me and my finger normally rolls off the stick when playing with my fingers pressed flat on the stick.

    Yeah, same here.

    I've just begun to notice that all of my friends that play 360 use the middle joint of their thumb... Its just so odd. They can still do well using their method, too.

    Middle tip.

    I just feels so right, although probably not the best way to hold it.
