The PC (Personal Computer) is a highly configurable and upgradable gaming platform that, among home systems, sports the widest variety of control methods, largest library of games, and cutting edge graphics and sound capabilities.
does anyone know a good wired controller for the pc and I dont like the 360 controller since it's to big the best controller I've used so far is the gamecube controller
The Logitech Precision Gamepad 2 is a good choice if you're looking for a wired controller. I'm personally using wireless controllers for my controller-benefiting PC stuff, and I'm using the Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2, and I really like it.
If you need something with analog sticks, there's also this or this.
You like the Gamecube-controller the best? Um okay.
The 360 controller is by far the best one, but if you don't like it I guess you could go with the PS3, both Sixaxis and Dualshock work. All other PC-only controllers are quite subpar to the official console ones.
Buy the 360 wired controller and you can use that. Or any PS3 controller and you can just plug them in and they work. All the made for pc controllers are pretty shabby and bad. Just buy them if you don't mind the price tag or want quality.
I'm using the logitec cordless rumble pad 2 and it works great for street fighter and other games. However the button layout isn't the same as the xbox360's controller, might have problems with certain games.
I have this one and it works great. I've heard complaints that the analog sticks stop working eventually, but they work fine for me... I don't use them much though.
Loads of games dont work at all well with mouse and keyboard. 3d platformers (I got the above madcatz to play Psychonauts), fighting games,driving games.
Sounds like you're using excuses from 10 years ago.. The original Xbox controller was huge.. but they fixed that with the 'S' pad, which was fine. The 360 controller is pretty much perfect, and is no bigger than the Gamecube/PS2 pad.
womg huge
It's by far the best game controller out there. (save for a somewhat wonky d-pad)

Well obviously he doesn't think it's perfect... The Gamecube controller may be the same overall size, but the grip definitely feels smaller.
Hey everyone get off his back about the 360 controller. Dude doesn't like it. That's it. He doesn't want an argument. I personally love the GC controller even though everyone says it sucks. Loved the button layout and it was super comfortable.

how!? I hate that crappy controller yet loved the 360 controller because it has a weight to it and its not super fragile. Oh well to each his own I guess

I'm using the Cordless Rumblepad 2 as well, and I like it even if it gets minimal use.
