I'm in the need for a good gamepad, one that is comfortable, has all the necessary buttons, and such. I'm looking at the Microsoft Sidewinder USB version for $29.99, but can anyone suggest a good gamepad for me to use? I'm looking for one for use with Madden 2003 in a few weeks. Thanks a bunch.

I've had the original Sidewinder for 4 years now and it still works beautifully. I've probably dropped it way more times than I should have but it's still going. I've used it to play Madden 2002 and it's very comfortable. Can't wait til Madden 2003 comes out. :cool:

Try Gravis Gamepad Pro. It comes in USB flavour and no software needed. It looks and feels exactly
like a playstation controller. I like it alot

Fry's has had the USB Gravis Tilt Destroyer for like $7.00 for a few weeks now. These are almost exactly like the Gravis GamePad Pro, but they feel much more solid. The price makes these unbeatable.

I use em mainly for playin NeoRAGE and stuff like that - I bought like half a dozen of these and gave them to friends so we could team up on Samurai Showdown and Metal Slug between classes..

good luck!

Man, out of all my gamepads - the Gravis Eliminator Aftershock has to be the nicest & most comfortable.
