Opinions on this bad boy? Should I buy it? Don't really have a budget for the Xbox and PS controllers, so is this the next best thing?
>>
>>331292561

My dpad got busted after 3 years of use
>>
You can get x360 pad for like 10-20$...
>>
It's fine. I'd use it over a PS controller.
>>
>>331292653
Not where I live. I can get an x360 gamepad for like 40 euros at the absolute least. The logitech one goes for like 20 euros.
>>
I have it, it's not bad. The back shoulder buttons are kinda hard to push down though, so any games that require you to use those buttons a lot are going to be a bitch to play. Other than that, it's alright.
>>
>>331292751
30€ from amazon de/fr

>>331292561
D-pad and shoulder button suck
>>
>>331292751
Its literally worth it m8y.
>>
>>331292561
>Don't really have a budget

Spoken like a true pc friend.
>>
>>331292561
It's perfectly passable but there's no reason to get it over a 360 pad. That or an Xbone pad if you're willing to spend a bit more for a not shit-tier dpad.
>>
>>331293268
What this guy said.
The D-Pad is very flimsy, and the shoulder buttons will get really uncomfortable if you're playing a game that uses them heavily.
You'll have a much better time if you save your money and buy something of higher quality.
>>
>>331293505
Yeah, I'm a student, and in kind of a financial pickle right now, so can't really spend a lot of money.

Thanks to all of you guys for your opinions, I've decided I'll just save some more and get an x360 or an xbone. Don't wanna end up with a shitty/uncomfortable controller. Thanks again! Have this nice pic in return.
>>
>>331292815
>>331293268
Not him, but how hard? Does it get softer with time? Do you get used to it? I'm used to long fingering sessions, but I've never had one of these in my hands.

>>331293815
I want to fuck that guy on the right.
>>
It's alright, but I have an issue with the diagonals of my analog sticks not registering all the way, so your character might slow down when doing that.

Still good for pretty much everything that needs a controller though.
>>
>>331294213
Sorry. I forgot to turn off the trip. I've been posting in a hackjima thread.
>>
I have it, its alright. It was recommended by Steam back in the days as alternative to 360 controller.
>>
>>331293815
Yeah id buy 360 too. Good luck!
>>
>>331292561
my solution (from years ago)
>$10 Xbox S controller (used but good condition)
>$5 Xbox USB adapter from a chinese shop
first party quality for $15

dunno if it's worth the trouble these days since you can probably get a used 360 controller for pretty cheap now

NEVER EVER BUY A THIRD-PARTY CONTROLLER

NEVER
EVER
NEVER

Get a 360, Xbone, PS3, PS4, or Wii U Pro Controller. They're INFINITELY better than third-party shits.
>>
They're okay, but really anything other than a 360 or other console controller is a poor purchase.

The big console companies go through infinitely more R&D than companies like Logitech, and the controllers are better for it. I used to use an F510, had all sorts of issues with it.
>>
>>331292561
10/10 d-pad
good face buttons
mediocre to bad everything else.
Worth it for the price.
>>
>>331292561
It's like a shit 360 controller.
>>
>>331292561
It's pretty good

I use the wireless one though

I prefer it over x360 and ps3 controller

>shitty dualfag placement
>shitty xfag circle pad

Why would you buy something that brings the worst of both worlds? It's like you want to get fucked in the ass willingly.
>>
It's not a bad controller. Logitech has been making game controllers forever. It also has Xinput so you dont have to get some adware ridden key mapper from a shady site.
>>
>>331300205
That older model must have been especially shitty if that one's reviews are legit.
>>
>>331300389
Those d-pads are nothing alike. I bet you think the Saturn d-pad is shit because it's round.
>>
>>331292561
>>331300205
I have both of these and use them for games like saints row 3/4 and sometimes fighting games if I'm lazy. Both have very nice qualities. the PS" lookin chinese one being pretty good for being a ps2 ish chinese one. And the Logitech stuff for being an Xbox 360 controller
I like both a whole lot, either are great for any number of things, duck game and Dark souls being the things I use them in most.

fuck the F310 for fighting games that D-pad is so shitty for fast inputs
>>
>>331292561
It's a good controller. If you have issues with the shoulder or d-pad it's easy as shit to fix.
>>
>>331300420
nah it's pretty much the same

it's solid black and there are only two buttons in the center instead of 3

it also didn't have xinput support like the new one does
>>
>>331292561
It's fine.

>>331292730
Agree with this honestly, at least for modern PS controlers. ds 3 and 4 are just uncomfortable.

>>331292751
I got the logitech for like 14.99.

Here, let me help you with that

>>>/vr/
>>
>>331292561
bought the F510 and it's already a piece of shit I never use anymore because the right trigger is all fucked up now.

DS3 from Sony is superior.
so save up some cash, fuccboi.
>>
>>331300684
>I'm shitposting
okay
>>
>>331300559
yeah i can definitely confirm the logitech pads are awful for anything that requires you to go at an angle

i only use the pad for emulation and trying to use sabin in ff6 or any of alucard's spells is fucking impossible with the logitech pad

i bought the thing easily 5, 6 years ago when steam and all these indie games was not really that popular yet, so there were not many options for gamepads because there were not many PC games that needed one
>>
>>331300741
>DS3
>Superior to anything
Yeah no.
>>
Have had mine for two years. D-pad is great. The sticks are like the Dual Shock. The buttons are loud but reliable. A lot of people dont like the triggers, but I think they're fine. Best controller I've ever used for the pc. Got it for $20 on Amazon.
>>
>>331300757
>hurr disagree with me and its shitposting

Nigger please, if you really got a saturn console you must be a very sad person. That shit got nothing going on for it, only Nights.
>>
>>331300842
do you really wanna question my own first-hand experience with two controllers I own personally?

F510 was completely fucked after 2 years.
DS3 I have for almost 3 years now and it still works great and I use it for every type of game.
>>
>>331300896
Wait what model we talking about here, mine doesn't have triggers, only buttons.
>>
http://www.amazon.com/Sega-Saturn-3D-Controller/dp/B00002STV2

Should I buy this + USB adapter? I want it for the hall effect sensor + magnets technology and I hate the potentiometer modules that get all loose eventually.
>>
>>331301001
I'm not questioning your "experience"

I'm questioning your terrible fucking taste.
>>
>>331300842
Considering you can map the motion controls to shit on Dolphin like tilt/shake, etc. Sure, it has some form of superiority to F510 in terms of mapping, regardless of how much you want that to be not true.
>>
i should probably also mention regarding the chinese knockoff i've only had the thing for like 2 weeks so i have no idea how long it will last

the logitech pads will last a very very long time though, easily 5+ years. before i had the solid black one with the thumbsticks i had one that was basically the same shape, colored like a super famicom controller, but it had no sticks, and that one lasted about 4 years

this chinese knockoff seems sturdy but it could break in less than a year for all i know
>>
>>331292561
I have the wireless version. The 360 pad is better.
>>
>>331300926
m8, I was arguing about the d-pad

The trigger has the most fucking powerful sping on them they could cram in it Jesus fuck

nice brand loyalty, you microcock faggot.

>hurr i bet you think some controller not even remotely related to the thread bla bla bla

Move the goalposts more, please, it's amusing.
>>
>>331301101
>Motion controls
Yeah, something never ever fucking used or usefully mapped to just about anything.
>but if you use dolphin you can map some of the half assed motion sensing to do some stuff
Wow great.
>>
Does the F310 have actual triggers? Only thing I want to play are driving games and I want to control how much gas I give.
>>
>>331301229
That guy said that the d-pad is the same shit as the x360 one. The only resemblance those two have is the circular shape, while they function and feel nothing alike. Same with the Saturn pad.

>>331301148
There's foam inside the spring. Take it out to make them easier to press.

Fucking sonyggers can't into proper arguments.

My PS3 controller is beginning to give up on me, like sometimes it will register input I didn't make (like the start button, or a move forward from the left pad for no reason). Is it possible to fix without paying too much or am I bound to get a new one ?
>>
>>331300404
>It also has Xinput so you dont have to get some adware ridden key mapper from a shady site.

Easily the best thing going for this controller, glad that you mentioned it. I didn't even know the controller had it before I bought it, when I found out, I was overjoyed.
>>
It's a real good gamepad for the price point. Only problem is that the deadzones on the analog sticks are kinda shitty and the back triggers are sculpted in such a way that pressing them for long periods of time hurts your fingers.
>>
>>331292561
It's a fine controller. Onlt real issue is that the triggers are a bit harder to push down on than on other controllers. You can also switch the function of the dpad and the left stick.
>>
>>331301020
Logitech F310. The L2 and R2 are analog triggers.
>>
>>331298951
do you even know what third party means?
PC has no party in the first place
>>
>>331301436
>My point still stands
What point? That you could bind some barely ever used or useful motion controls, to an emulator and do nothing of any importance because the actual motion controls required are much more than tilting a controller a bit?

Wow anon, that sure is Sony superiority right there.
>>
I really dislike the triggers
>>
I like it. I wished it were just buttons instead of triggers and that logitech would change their flimsy ass wires into something better. Dpads are nice for casual rounds of fighting games.

Why do you even need a D-pad, d-pads were nearly always digital, if you have a keyboard you have an digital controller right there.

It's not as comfy

This thread is a prime example of why 4chan is such a retarded hellhole. A thread about controllers and you virgins just spew shit on each other. Pathetic.

Shoulder buttons and dpad suck ass. My shoulder button got stuck so I can't play shit with it anymore.

Goddamn, why are you willing to ignore everything right in front of your nose? First you don't admit the superiority of a controller that has more functions than another, so you're just an elitist fag, secondly you miss any points people make, are you mentally retarded? Or does the truth hurt you so much you want to avoid it at all costs.

but yeah dpad is iffy
the whole product is an offspring of ds3 and xbox360 controllers
i use it on every game on pc, works without any problems even with the emulators
its great for its price id say
>>
>>331305048
Considering Sony has never done circlepads either, your assumption of brand loyalty is hilarious to say the least.

Sony d-pads are shit though, well apart from the Vita.

But you know how sonyggers are, they'll defend it to death.

>>331297395
That specific logitech controller is flimsy. The 360 controller is literally the best option for anything if you wanna play with controller
>>
>>331292561
It's not too bad, but it has two fairly significant issues.

>Analog stick deadzones
>Very stiff triggers

If you're in dire need for a budget pad it's alright but you do get what you pay for.
>>
>>331292561
I think it's fine. It works pretty well, it's fairly comfortable, and it's lasted me over a full year and it's still in perfect condition.
>>
>>331300896
Pretty much this. Buttons are pretty loud, but I'd say it's a great controller for the price
>>
>>331300404
There's an excellent opensource program for that so it's really not that big of a deal.
>>
Anyone try these out? I wanna play the Banjo games to see if the shitter argument that BK is better than Spyro holds at all; and I want the authentic feel.
I've seen some youtube reviews it seems pretty good.

I liked it and used it for like 3 years.

Only bad thing i can say about it is the lower buttons at the back, theres quite a lot of space there so it will collect dust and other shit quite easy. Other then that its good

That D-Pad looks like shit

If you can find it, Alienware made a PS2 controller that also doubled as a USB PC controller.

You'll have to use a program like Joy2Key but it's a really nice controller. Feels solid and well built, and I haven't noticed any issues as far as responsiveness.
>>
>>331308219
The Mad Catz we have to day is nothing like the Mad Catz from 10 years ago. They actually have quality shit.
>>
If you're on a tight budget, sure it's not too bad.

I don't like the d-pad too much, but the 360 d-pad isn't any better.
>>
>>331292561
I use it. This model doesn't have vibration though. I'd recommend take the similar model with it.
