Best 3rd party xbox 360 controller?

Post by sega dude »

I need new 360 controllers. On one on my controllers the X button is worn on and its hard to get it to respond. On my other controller the RB button is SO bad. Its EXTREMELY hard to get it to respond. It doesn't even click at all. It just makes a weird springy noise. So what is the best 3rd party controller out there? Also wired, or wireless?

Why not get another Microsoft 360 wireless controller? I don't think you can find another one that is better quality for the 360.

Other than the D-Pad, it is a perfect controller. So yeah, just get another 360 controller.

The point is to save money, not get a better controller.

Then try Craigslist?

Personally, I use a PDP (formerly Pelican) PS2 controller with a Joytron PS2-to-Xbox 360 controller adapter.

Works flawlessly. Absolutely no lag! Nice responsible d-pad. Comfortable.
