- No possble interference

Cons
- Limited distance compared to wireless
- Has a cable

Wireless

Pros

- Possibly slower by a few ms

I vote wired. I have gotten burned out on wireless batteries. I use this one .
 
Saitek P2500 :confused:
Probably I'll go with Logitech ones like Rumblepad, Dual Actỉon, or Cordless Rumblepad
They look good :D
 
I have gotten to where I stay away from Logitech. I have used the Logitech Dual Action and the Logitech Rumblepad 2. The analog stick on both went out in 3-6 months. :banghead:

I have used the Saitek for over a year now, and never had a problem.
 
@JATownes: Hardcore stuff. I guess I won't kill those analog in at least 1 and a half year :D

yea, maybe it is just me. I do game rather hard. :D

Edit: I just did a little googling, and I am apparently NOT the only one. It seems the left analog stick goes out rather often. Link
 
Haven't seen the Razer Onza Xbox 360 Controller. That looks amazing !!!
 
i just use a regular wired 360 controller. at least you know all the console ports will support it properly.
