"How much was it?"

It was only like $20. I was ordering the AV pack from buy.com and I figured I would buy a couple things since the shipping was already $6 on a $16 order..:)

I actually have no problems with the standard Xbox controller except that I hate the force feedback "rumble" so I shut that off. My hands are larger so I have no problems with it and after just a little while, it's easy to get used to playing a FPS with it... I can see where someone with smaller hands might have issues with it though. :)

Ya i used them before when i was at best buy they let u play there system and i think that controller is not that good compared to playstation controller. I also think that GameCube controller is even better.

<< I read in one of my game mags that the Madcatz pad was the best one out >>



I have two of those which I really like. The top to bottom profile of the madcatz is slimmer than the originals; that makes reaching the top buttons a lot easier. They feel good in my hands.

The only gripe some people have had is that they vibrate pretty hard sometimes. It doesn't bother me though.

Do you guys find the Xbox controller is a little big? It hurts my hands after a while. I like the DC, PS2, and even N64 controller better.

My major gripe with the N64 controller was the stupid analogue stick. My thumb hurt after like 40 minutes of gameplay. And I also disliked the fact that there is a D-Pad that is almost never used.
