What is the best controller/gamepad for the PC?

Hey all-

I'm wondering what the best controller/gamepad is for NBA Live 06 for the PC?

Is the wired XBOX 360 controller any good? I've seen a few threads mentioning problems they had with it. Do these problems still exist? (I might buy an XBOX 360 down the line so that's why I'm wondering)

Thanks for your help.

What ever you do stay away from logitech. So many people have had problems with it. Just click the link and read some user reviews in my sig.

The wire Logitech dual actions screw up but i have had the wireless 1 like ceewah has and i havent had any problem. I highly recommend the wireless logitech dual action because it doesnt mess up and it is basically a ps2 contoller

looool that's what i've done to my $15AUD controller, and it still works. Its missing all its screws so I taped it up, the knobs on the analogue sticks are ripped off, the 2 LEDs to mark if Rumble and 'analog' is on have been ripped out. The vibrator motor things have been ripped out.

Terrible. Still works though.
