    recommend me a game controller for the pc!

    for all/any types of emulators
    what type of pc controllers should i get?




    i'm looking for ones that cost $20 at the most, but works well.
    i'm planning on getting 4, so don't wanna use too much money.

    if it has rumbling capabilities and all that, that'd be even better.


    suggestions please!

    I use the 360 wired pad, works very well, two analogs, 1 d-pad, plenty of buttons and rumble. Although Microsoft drivers arn't the best so im using a third party driver.

    On topic, my adventures into the realm of buying-cheap-360-controllers turned up bad. Stick with Microsoft for high-quality working products.

    I liked the ol' Microsoft Sidewinder pads, but I don't think MS makes them any more, so you might have a hard time finding them.

    Otherwise, more recently, I got a Logitech Cordless RumblePad 2 - basically the Logitech equivalent of the PS2 controller. Works great for everything I've ever tried it with... well, save N64, where you'd really just want to use a real N64 controller with an Adaptoid, imo.

    I also own a Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2, it's nice, like a PS2 controller, very good, but man, if you want a good controller you are going to spend more that $20 each, for 20 you're going to get junk only, maybe for 30-40 each you are going to get good controllers.

    I use a PS2 Dual Shock pad, with an adaptor. Also great.
