Considering getting a controller to use with Steam games. What are the pros and cons of the various types?

8BitDo makes a super solid controller for an unbeatable price. I have am Ultimate 2C and while I tend to prefer KBM in most games, it works fantastically for games that really need a controller. It's a major upgrade from the old 360 controller I was using. Biggest selling point for me was the price.

This is a reminder to check your stick

One big difference in stickdrift/jittering if you get a controller with a hall effect sensor. It has a whole different working principle compared to normal ones. As I see that gamesir has those, it will be a whole new level after you get used to the new geometry. Since i switched to an 8bitdo ultima

Steam Controller Priced at $149 CAD

The Canadian experience is seeing a cool tech announcement for $99 USD (~130CAD) and then watching it transform into $150 the moment it crosses the border. It’s like a magic trick where my money just disappears. My 8BitDo Ultimate 2C cost me $40 CAD; I could literally buy three of those for the pric

It is garbage. If you want something decent and cheap, I recommend 8bitdo Ultimate 2C. It has wired and wireless version.

Стоит ли покупать геймпад для пк? Даст ли это какие-то новые ощущения от игр?

Я год назад решил попробовать геймпады, попросил на др дешёвую копирку дуалшока 4 с вб, теперь у меня 4 топовых геймпада и на клавомыши я играю только в шутеры, и то не все. Геймпады освежили мой игровой опыт и даже улучшили впечатление от игр, которые я дропнул(Елдарик и Сайлент Хилл 2 ремейк), в и

any good reliable alternatives to the regular nintendo switch pro controller?

8BitDo Ultimate 2C. It's about 30 USD and honestly very good value with Hall effect sticks and button feel. I prefer the D-pad to both the Pro 1 and Pro 2 controllers, if that's something that matters to you.

Where to get a feel for gamepads/controllers?

8bitdo Ultimate 2C. Stick are hall effect sensor. Won't encounter any stick drift. It's cheap and good. Battery are lasting as well. No physical feel though. But so far they took the shape of those major console controllers, so it can't go wrong.
