I need recommendations for a new GAMEPAD!

[NotoriousJTC]

Just found out mine isn't compatable with WindowsXP... Thus explaining the probs i had playing NBA Live.

I've been looking at a couple gamepads from Logitech.

Logitech Wingman RumblePad
Logitech Dual Action Gamepad

The controller i have now most resembles the Dual Action, but the Wingman seems to be more popular. And im sure there are a couple others i haven't seen yet. Any suggestions/Input?

I'm also curious about this. Been looking for a gamepad for awhile now. Figure that it will last me quite a long time, so I might as well go all out and get the best one available. Any suggestions guys?

If you want a No Frills straight up Gamepad, GRAVIS GAMEPAD PRO is the way to GO

Original Microsoft Sidewinder. Those babies are by far the best gamepad I've ever used. I wish Microsoft had just used those for the XBox.

Hello,

I've read that the Saitek Gamepads were very good.

Bye

Yep.....but Argh!!...mine isn't USB and it uses the Gameport instead. My new motherboard won't have a gameport.

Hands down the PS2 controller with a usb adapter. The best by far.

How is it's compatability with games? Or more specifically, sports titles? Any troubles configuring it or getting it reconized in certain applications?

Oh, and thanks you guys for the other suggestions. I don't think there is any place around here that sells Saitek, but i will have to take a closer look around town.
