Which Controller To Go With for PC

Postby Matt on Fri Jun 03, 2005 10:15 pm

i bought the Logitech controller (looks like a PS2) for 04, but within 6 months it broke. Now i cant move forward, instead the player moves backwards by himself.

So, is there anything better out there? or is this the best one?

I'm still a fan of my Thrustmaster Firestorm Dual Analog pad. Haven't had any problems with it, I've had it about three years now.

I got the PS2 controller with adapter. Actually, I have two of them and they work perfectly for every game I have. Never had a single problem with them.

it basicly is a ps2 controller. the only difference is the built in fans which are there to cool your hands or keep from sweating or something like that. seeing as my hands never sweat(i dont grab the controller like my life depended on it) i never use the fans.

I tried the logi controller and they aren't that good and ever since I switched the ps2 controller with the adapter I never looked back!

All I know is don't go out and buy another Logitech. Cyanide bought me one a while back and I've had nothing but problems with it, actually it sucks balls. LOL sorry Cy. :roll:

LOL Thrustmaster? Sounds like a ....dildo? :mrgreen:

Check on Ebay.

By the way, I also have two Logitech Dual whatever and they both are damaged. They lasted less than 6 months. Now I bought an adapter for PS2 to USB and waiting for it to arrive.

I wonder is I can use wireless controllers with this adapter ????????
