That controller looks kind of cheap. Better off getting a Logitech or better yet, the Microsoft 360 controller, which offers built-in compatibility for all Games for Windows branded titles.

I have a very similar older Saitek gamepad (no rumble) and my only complaint is that for some reason the axes on the left analog stick are backwards (left<->right is up<->down, vice versa). No response from the one time I emailed them about it, but it was only ever an issue in games that didn't have an option to remap controls. No idea if this is even a widespread issue, IIRC I bought it 3-4 years ago.
Definitely worth $8, IMO.

Oh, also, there are six face buttons and two shoulder buttons.

I'm trying to buy this with Paypal, but there is no "Free Shipping" option at checkout. There are three levels of shipping, with the cheapest one starting at around $7.

It's getting harder to find controllers with six face buttons, and this seems like a good deal for one (if the free shipping worked). I've never owned a saitek product, but they seem to be pretty decent from what people say.
