I really think it depends on the driver.
As a not so great driver in '07, I liked the xbox controller (similar enough to ps2 for this argument). I had played a lot of halo, so the control and fine movements with it worked well for me.
To the average kid in FIRST, i suppose joysticks would be easier because they are easier to get fine movement out of.
I know it wasn't the question asked, but after seeing many teams run it, and trying it out myself, I'm very favorable to a joystick for throttle and a wheel for steering.

He's talking pure functionality, not coolness. But yes, a wiimote would be cool.
