If on X-Box, buy the gamepad with the twist D-Pad. The one where you can make it a complete circle or plus sign. Doesn't matter which way you have it (I always pick the circle one, because superior), as your results will be just the same. ie. No more picking the wrong consumable by accident.
Everybody thinks it's because of the circle design choice (why current X-Bone adapted the plus sign too), but it's wrong. Circle D-Pads are the best. Just design of the D-Pad is flawed. Because no one in the industry can design proper gamepads. Because no one in the world can do their jobs right. Bunch of slackers. Why machines like me will take over one day. It's inevitable.
