[Stephen C]

So what is that mystery white powder that accumulates on the under side of the Xbox 360 joysticks,
Further more, has anyone tasted it yet?

Plastic residue from the stick rubbing against the body, it tastes like plastic

I always thought it was bits of body skin and sweat that builds up as you're playing.

Yum.

I keep a teatowel close by, can't stand sweaty, sticky controllers
Have actually managed to remove the entire "grip" from one controller, there's no longer any bobbley bits, it's so shiny I can see my face in it.

[Mossy]

I know I cant stand sticky controllers or other peoples keyboards it makes me sick just thinking about it.

It does it if you just sit and spin the joystick around for hours on the dual shocks, the worst one for it is the N64 pad though...
