Thread: Best PC Controller

  1. #1

    Default Best PC Controller

    So, I tend to play most of my PC games using a Xbox controller, but recently, my wired Xbox 360 controller went kaput. Now I'm looking at buying a new controller and trying to decide which one would be best for PC gaming. I'm really looking hard at the steam controller, but I'm so used to the Xbox 360 controller that I'm not sure if I'd like the steam controller. What are your opinions on the steam controller, and would you recommend it over an Xbox 360 controller?

    Nothing beats the 360 controller in my opinion.

    I don't like the deep indents on the xbox one controller, but I suppose it just takes some getting used to. Either way you can't wrong with an Xbox controller, I think they have the best compatibility with almost anything on PC.

    Yeah, not to mention they are super robust!

    I'm enjoying the DS4 these days. Native support in most recent games and full backwards compatibility using DS4Windows.

    Some of those Speedlink controllers use the same X-input as xbox controller so there's less setting up if any, nice for a spare

    I should really try to get used to controllers, I am like a cripple with it, esp FPS games. I have the XBox 360 with the wireless controller. Like some have said, that thing is robust, its like those old Nokias.

    My son plays a lot of those Lego games and I played Portal 2, Life Is Strange, some other games. Basically no setup, just works.

    I'm also using the DS4 with my PC. It works great with DS4Windows . All I need to get is a Bluetooth adapter so I can go wireless.
