Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Instantly supportedThe controller itself is very good, a far better fit for my hands than Playstation's design, and the analogue sticks are better because the bowl shape cups your thumbtips. However, I prefer the shoulder buttons on the PS3 controller and the D-pad on this one is near-useless. It's the best choice for a modern PC gamer though, due to its instant compatibility with any Games for Windows branded game, and the third-party software "xpadder" makes it easy to get it working for any other game too, making it as close to the definition of 'plug and play' as any controller. The vibration feature is also strong and an excellent inclusion for the price you pay. For games like Devil May Cry 4 and classics such as Beyond Good & ... Read More: Rating: - The only controller to buyThe truth is that I was never too big on controllers, but having got a hold of GRID and Lego Indiana Jones, I decided that needed one. This is THE controller, if you don't already have one, or are not looking for a specialist type, I highly recommend this one! Pro's: Great design, comfortable in the hands, new games come with in built compatibility (no need to set the keys), great for football, action, platform and driving games, very responsive, same standard as an Xbox 360 controller. No need for batteries, drivers install in a minute. Can be used as a second controller if you have an Xbox 360, the wire means that you don't accidentally turn on the Xbox when you use it. Con's: It wasn't available a few ... Read More: Rating:  - Great controllerI love the design of the 360 controller, its chunky but not too big, and its not at all heavy. Its comfortable to hold for long periods too. Some reviews have comnplained about the vibration not working on that many games, but that is entirley dependant on the game not the controller, so this cant be blamed on the controller. Another review I have read complains the analogue triggers don't work on GTA. Well if this review refers to San Andreas, since GTA4 is not on PC yet, that game does not have analogue accelerator.brake controls, it is digital, again not a fault of the controller. Perhaps my main gripe with the pad is the oddly positioned left analogue stick. For me I would prefer the analogues to be adjacent to one another ... Read More: Rating: - Correct DriversIn order to get the most out of this you need the right drivers - if you google "XBCD 360" you get the correct drivers for this model (if you get just the standard xbcd drivers you can have a lot of problems). The drivers eliminate the problems other people had (i.e. all buttons work independantly, both analogue sticks work separately, triggers can be set to analogue). Glad I spent the extra cash to get something of decent quality, would recommend to anyone looking for a decent controller. Rating: - Just superb...I only use this gamepad for Fifa 08 on PC, but it is utterly brilliant for playing with. I bought a cheap gamepad before and Fifa did not let half of the shoulder buttons work, or the right analog stick, but it is fine with this gamepad. I might have to check out this other drivers to get vibration function however... I dont intend to use this for FPS games such as Far Cry or CS Source as I believe mouse and keyboard is better However I believe this is a great purchase as the quality of the item is robust and will certainly have a long life, and if I buy an Xbox 360 in the future [likely], then I have a gamepad to use... If you're looking for a quality gamepad, then this is the one for you |
