I always use mouse + keyboard for FPS. Maybe a gamepad will work but I can't imagine you'd be competitive online.
I am currently using a PS2 to usb cable to use a PS2 gamepad on my PC which works great apart from the deadzone issues that seem to happen with the 360 pad anyway. So having to set deadzones is nothing new at all and not really an isssue.
I don't play shooters online much at all. Slow Australian net connection causes some lag and online gamers are for the most part a bunch of sore losers that need to remember that it is only a game. So I mainly stick to playing against friends.
Hell , they know my tricks and manage to put up a better fight than most of the online gamers anyway.

Sorry to revive a dead thread but... does the XBox 360 PC controller work on the ePSXe emulator? Also does it work on the DC emulator - nullDC? I've tried playing Jet Grind Radio on an DC emulator but I couldn't do the spray paint business, and was told that I'd need a controller to make this work. Would this one do?
Also would a PS2 controller (plugged into the computer through a USB conversion cable) work on Jet Grind Radio? Then I wouldn't need to shell out $70 CAD on a Microsoft controller and could just buy the cable to solve my issues.

Been using the 360 pad for a month or so now and it is fine for ePSX and PC games. Don't know about NullDC though, sorry.

Personally, I'd go with the Playstation or PS2 controller. I absolutely cannot stand the D-pad design on Microsoft products, so it kills my desire to play most fighters. It's too bad, too, because it's my only real concern with the 360 controller in terms of design.
