The new Xbox controller.

unless you're willing to manually place .dll files in all steam directories of games you want to use it with (and still no guarantee that it works afterwards), get an xbox 360 controller. Everything else requires work (installing non-manufacturer supplied third party software and so on) to get them to function.

Depends on your budget.

If you have enough cash, get 360/xbone.

If you're on a budget, get a logitech/pro ex.

Xbox one controller is really slick. You already have the drivers if you have windows 10. If you don't, you're shit out of luck. If you wanna splurge the elite is worth the price.

The Wii U gamepad. Typing is a bit slower on it, but it's still alright, and you can map buttons to motions on the pad

Granted you'll have to directly program it yourself, but it can be done if you can program competently. You can, can't you, /v/?

If you're on a budget you can't go wrong with a Dualshock 1 or 2 and a converter. I personally prefer the Dualshock 1 since they're more responsive. You shouldn't be spending more than $14 total for this and it works with any game that supports Xbox controllers, you've just gotta learn how to use the very easy x360ce. You can find a converter for just about any first party controller you might have laying around and they'll all work for that too. If that doesn't work for you get an Xbox 1 controller or a Dualshock 4.

None of the Xbox controllers are remotely sutable for fighting games. Just because it doesn't have one of the worst dpads ever doesn't redeem it.

Just get an XBox controller. It's cheap, it's plug and play and they tend to be reasonably durable.

>>334249245
Cool butt.

I use an xbox 360 controller, I heard the xbone controller is good.


Don't get a PS3/4 controller unless you really like them for some reason and want to spend 5 minutes setting it up.

DS4 is simple to setup with DS4windows if you're connecting via USB. Wireless is a bit more involved with bluetooth dongles and shit.

Works fine once setup though. Even rumble works. Something I could never get working with the DS3

Bunch of console ports which are the majority of new games on PC these days.

emulators and whatever works well with controller (FF14 for instance, is actually pretty great if you aren't super hardcore)

I am actually considering getting actual console controllers and their adapters for emulators instead of using the DS4.
>>
>>334258447

Why?
Are you playing the controller and not the game?

From my experience with just PS2 controllers on pc, you are inviting al ot of pain into your life for no good reason

>>334258585
Because I want to?

I've never had issue using any playstation controller on the (PC 1-4. I've even used the twin flight sticks and the PS2 HOTAS).

And the adapters have been plug and play for years now. The adapter I use for my PS1 and PS2 controller is probably like 5 years old and was easier to setup than the DS3 or DS4, since windows just detects it as generic wired controller and works right away.
>>
>>334258739

>buy adapter
>only 70% of the buttons work, one stick doesnt do shit
>buy another
>everything works, axes are inversed and clicking sticks kills everything else

I think I bought one more but obviously that didnt work well either.
>>
>>334258938
>Because I want to?

Why?
>>
>>334258940
I'm not even sure how that happens. I bought an adapter from a Radioshack of all places back in high school, and it worked perfect. Still does for that matter, but 360 controllers are compatible with almost everything making it the best choice.
>>
>>334249245
the steam controller is the best one

How are the analogs or whatever they have instead of it?

Honest question, they feel a bit clunky for something like a souls or any Third person game.

I need a enw controller too, my PS3 one is starting to broke after all these years and it's so fucking hard to get it working on PC.

If you already have a controller, use that. If you don't, get the 360 one. I'm personally on the PS3 controller, no point in getting the 360 when I already have this.

Also used a logitech dual shock in the past and it worked with only its base driver installed

>>334257890
Most genres benefit from a controller over KB/M, where you get really awkward control setups (example: Dragon's Dogma).
>>
>>334258154
That program is some wild shit. Adjusting dead zones, sensitivities, rumble, touch pad use, gyro use, macros, light bar color customization, etc...

It's worked without issue too, games just work with it. Nothing more I can really say.
>>
>>334263887
I used a controller for DD but no idea why it wouldn't work with kb/m, seems fine bro
>>
>>334258026
i agree with this. also i'm less shit at FPS when everyone has to play with a controller
>>
>>334264046
No, not really. Clicking a fucking mouse for light and heavy is some ungodly garbage. A affront to a game with gameplay as good as DD.
>>
>>334264175
I dont think so, in fact attacking without the shoulder buttons on a controller feels like a massive slog after playing souls games for a couple hundred hours, and mouses have been used for click combat since forever.

Works fine bro. and DD gameplay is meh anyway
>>
>>334249245
It highly depends on what you'll find most comfortable for your hands
Alot of people recommend the Xbox controllers in general due to people generally having big hands.
I however dislike the way the Xbox controllers are designed, with the left analog stick being placed in a bizarre spot, so i prefer the Playstation 3 controller over any other
It is all a matter of opinion and there is no best controller.
If you only have a small buck on you, Gamestop sold me a big bulky PS3 controller which i used for many years on PC, so try stopping by Gamestop, in case they have a cheap USB controller

Who am i kidding, no one is gonna read this shit

tl;dr
All official controller are good in their own way, but something cheap can work too
>>
>>334264414
I always thought the xbox layout was weird too
>>
>>334264175

It was completely fine for me, I'm more comfy with kb+m and it felt better too once I mapped enter+escape to the mouse too for all the menu hopping.

Also, strider/ranger aiming with mouse >controller
>>
>>334249245
Personally I'm a fan of using either the DS3 or DS4 but that's only because the Xbox layout weirds me out.

Remember, if it's DS3: Use SCP.
>>
>>334265204
SCP just werks
