1 out of 5 stars Amazingly squeaky and now in the bin   November 10, 2008
Mr. M. M. Musselle (UK)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

When the parcel arrived I ran around the village twice totally involuntarily - great delivery. Very squeaky analogue stick after owning the product for under a month and using it rarely. So annoying that I had to smash it into tiny pieces and now lies peacefully squeaking no more in my wicker basket bin. Will be ordering a second time and KEEPING the packaging so I can send it back when the new one starts squeaking. Don't buy twice, buy once and keep your packaging (which is impossible not to ruin when you open it because it is heat crimped shut).


5 out of 5 stars Get Pinnacle Game Profiler!   November 7, 2008
James Schlesinger (Somerset, UK)

I always found the Playstation controller easier, until my hands got too big. Preferred PC games but the easy of console gaming was too much to ignore. Was a PS2 user for its lifespan, then "High Definition" gaming happened. Was unsure which to go for xbox360 or the PS3... both of which turn out to be happy with HD Ready/720p graphics, I am not.
Found the perfect solution, custom built(by me) gaming PC, with the ease and comfort of the Xbox360 controller.

One problem, joysticks and PC games never got on. And there is limited support for this controller with PC games, of the many games I own only Crysis has built in support for it.
To use the xbox360 controller with your other games i recommend purchasing the profiler. You get a trial period, and if you decide to buy there is fantastic support for a lot of other games. Profiles are made by Pinnacle themselves or by other gamers, or you can customise and create your own.
Costs about 12.

Am now happily enjoying STALKER, FEAR, The Witcher and Oblivion without the fear of hitting the Windows button.



3 out of 5 stars Good but not great   October 20, 2008

The good stuff:
This is really well made bit of kit.
Its dead comfortable
analog stick and triggers are nice and responsive

Downside:
The supplied drivers are awful (can be sorted using XBCD drivers)
I don't think much to the d-pad

Its a good solid pad, but I still like the old xbox Controller S pad more



5 out of 5 stars A great piece of kit!   October 18, 2008
Mr. W. J. Vallance (Sheffield, SY UK)
I must say I went for the more pricey wireless version of the controller, but they're essentially the same product. It's fantastically designed with excellent build quality. I also give credit for the fact that it's slightly weighty which goes down well when playing games, because it feels very robust.

I'm cursed with massive hands, and despite the compactness of the thing, it fits beautifully into my palms, and my ability to engulf it makes operating the thumb sticks feel much more sturdy. It's so tactile and you feel that you are playing with a very high quality device, yet at the same time it manages to slip from existence when you are fully immersed in game play.

I am certain that you will not regret purchasing this controller, as it makes the perfect companion for any PC gamer!



5 out of 5 stars Instantly supported   September 21, 2008
Mr. John G. Roscoe (Manchester, UK)
The 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 & Evil (or a Playstation/N64 emulator if you're being a bit naughty), this pad is invaluable.
