Customer Review: Good Controller
Summary: 5 Stars
This is pretty much everything you need for a USB controller, and fairly priced. I use it for video game emulators I have on my computer and it works very well. There are one or two games it doesn't work for, but I blame the ROM and not the controller. There are a couple of issues: The way the joysticks are designed, they seem to favor toward the diagonal, which can make it a pain to just move your character in a straight line. This isn't a deal breaker, but it does take getting used to. Also, though I've only had it for a couple of months, one button that I seem to use a lot has started sticking a bit, which makes me wonder about the controller's longevity. Nonetheless, it does feel very durable, and I wouldn't judge it so soon. Other reviews highlight its durability, so it's probably fine. Overall, these issues are negligible next to the simple pleasure of using a controller, rather than a keyboard, for games designed to be used by a controller. It is a worthwhile purchase.Customer Review: Great gamepad!

Rumblepad 2 Gamepad PC
Excellent gamepad to use with Lego Star Wars2: The Original Trilogy and Star Wars LEGO 1:The Video Game. Identical with the XBOX 360 version except it does not have the lights to indicate if you are player 1 or 2. Also, the PC version of these games does not provide vibration feedback, so the Dual Action Controller is less expensive and is identical to the Rubmblepad without the vibration. Both games will suport two controllers and require remapping the keyboard controls to the gamepad which is very easy to accomplish (assuming you know which buttons are used on the XBOX version). One drawback is that the PC version uses the same button for start and pause, where the XBOX version uses separate buttons. (The logitech has both buttons, but the software restricts the mapping to the same button).
Customer Review: An excellent gamepad
Summary: 5 Stars
This is close to the perfect gamepad. Neither too light nor too heavy (I find some Saitek too light for instance), sturdy, good vibration, holds extremely well in my hands (I have big hands, PS2 controllers are almost too small for me and I can't hold Gamecube). I have not used the force feedback yet so I can't judge that. The joysticks work really well though, and never get stuck or loose (yet, at least). All buttons answer well, the d-pad is confortable (unlike some Saitek, again)... Yep I can't find a flaw... except one minor thing : the 9 and 10 buttons shoud be in the place of the mode and vibration buttons and vice versa. But that's VERY minor. An excellent controller indeed.Customer Review: As good as it gets folks
Summary: 5 Stars
It costs about the same amount as a controller for any console. Why do you hold it under such scrutney!? These controllers don't last forever! As conrollers get more complicated and have more buttons, yes they will break with excessive use. My N64 & PS2 controllers last for 2 months and I would consider that a normal lifespan considering heavy wear and tear. All my Gamecube controllers creep when they move and I have 4 of them. Deal with it! The joystick is a mechanical part, it fails quickly. Have you compared this to other controllers. Frankly I don't think you are going to find a better controller short of something gyroscopic and wireless.Customer Review: Great Pad
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't know what the other review is talking about, this is a great pad. I just got it the other day along with Madden 2005 and it works beautifully. I also have Fifa Soccer 2004 and it works with that too. The drivers it comes with are valid and the program it asks you to install I would recommend installing as well.
Anyone with Windows XP, XP will install the gamepad automatically, but I took no chances and installed the drivers as per the instructions that came with it.
This is an amazing pad, it's so good I'm thinking about buying another one so I can play with my friends. I reccomend this to any and all!!!
