Re: speedlink xbox 360 gamepad
I would go official personally always found 3rd party controllers to be of poorer quality.

Re: speedlink xbox 360 gamepad
I guess this doesn't help if you're maybe trying to save a few bob, but I'd agree about the official one too. It's £6 extra, but money well spent.

Re: speedlink xbox 360 gamepad
There are sometimes good deals on the wireless one, bundled with a game. The bundle is usually cheaper than the pad itself! Worth keeping an eye out

Re: speedlink xbox 360 gamepad
I think looney wants it for a PC so the wireless is bad value if you have to buy the wireless usb thing first and the game would be useless to him

Re: speedlink xbox 360 gamepad
Yup, yup, yup get the official one, all of the 3rd party ones i've seen, change things for the worse and arn't as nice to use.
some of the analogue sticks arn't very grippy on 3rd party ones aswell |
