What's the best gamepad for PC or dolphin/pcsx2? - tuanming - 01-09-2011
I think my Logitech Cordless Rumble 2 just died, buttons don't work and i changed the battery, change usb ports, and no luck.
I'm thinking about getting the Xbox 360 or the logitech Wireless Gamepad F710. Anyone have experience with either of these gamepad with Dolphin or Pcsx2?
Edit: I purchased the PS3 DualShock 3 Controller (world's best controller ever made!) and a fairly high priced USB Bluetooth adapter and now I'm gaming with dolphin! The best purchase I've ever made!

A Xbox Controller is actually pretty good, because it works with much games.
But it still sucks cause of the batteries !

Is there a difference between wired and wireless on the xbox 360 controller? Does it feel lighter or different?

Difference is one is wired and other is wireless.

I love the PS2 Dual Shock, I baught an usb adapter and now i am happy.
There are pieces of software that can emulate the xbox pad with any other pad, so you can play all the games that work with the xbox thingy too.

I use and prefer the wired 360 controller, as Anti-Ultimate said batteries sucks
Also the 360 controller is better for new PC games and emulators in general. Old PC games doesnt aways support it.
And the wireless one is heavier.
Also imagine a guy like me, 2 meters tall uh, I think you would call it 6,5 feet tall, so I have pretty long fingers lol, the wireless controller just dont have space in its back for me to hold it comfortably

I was at a similar situation and went the F710 way, can't say i regretted it. Only the analog triggers placement seemed weird at first but was just a matter of getting used to them. The addition of analog triggers is also the strong point against rumblepad 2 since you can utilize them for gamecube games. The builds at my sig have ready xinput profiles made for them too. Rumble is a bit weak though.

Bought the PS3 Dualshock 3 controller and Targus USB bluetooth 2.0 ($20) and now I go google to set up my controller.
