I'll look into those, thanks dudes.

How are the Rock Candy ones? I kinda want a bright pink controller.

Been trying to play Contra and Super C with the default 360 controller. What a nightmare.

The Rock Candy ones still have that weird floaty disc thing going on.

No, more like the official 360 dpad. Mushy poop.

I thought the 360 has a bad d-pad thing was a myth until I started playing modern fighting games with it. Trying to do the fatality sequences in Mortal Kombat (MK9) is a nightmare. Look at me! I'm jumping in the air over and over until you die!

There are throws and moves I found impossible to perform on the 360 in Virtua Fighter due to that D-pad. God, I hate that thing.

Same.

I never had issues until Contra / Super C.

360 pad works really nice for shmups - not for fighters.

I am a big fan of the Rock Candy pads - use them as my go to for 360 and PC gaming.

I'll be very late to the party at best.

The lack of worthwhile games is mind-boggling.
