Looking for a gamepad
on: March 22, 2009, 07:01:12 pm
I am looking for a gamepad. it needs at least 10 or so buttons.
force feedback and wireless are a huge plus.

I own Logitech Dual Action and it's great. I also used the one with coolers and was cool(lol) too.

PS2 controller with a usb adapter FTW!  :yes:  Dual anaolgue sticks, digital d-pad, 12 buttons force feedback and there are wireless varieties!

In the uk, you can buy them at a store called GAME. I'm not sure where you are so I don't know where you would find them locally.

And this is the first I found on the web! I know there are wireless PS2 controllers as I picked up a pair, second hand, for a bargain £5.

My apologies, it's a rumble pad! You hit the afterburners and the thing shakes like mad, you get hit on the left hand side and left hand side of the pad buzzes away! Therefore you are getting some kind of feedback, but the actual joysticks don't move independantly, therefore not classed as force feedback!

It'd definitely be interesting, though you're thumbs would probably get very sore after a while. =/

I disabled the feature on my Logitech Rumblepad 2 because it did more harm than good during long gaming periods. On the other hand, I've never been sold on force feedback and its derivatives. A controller shaking your hands is a far cry from real immersion anyhow.
