    First original PLAYSTATION gamepad with USB adapter...and second X360 gamepad.

    I hate half of you...especially the dumb ones.
    Some of you are on my blacklist and so shall be any asswife that tries to prove he's worth anything.
    If this post somewhat offends your silly arse,then I proved my point.
    You have been warned so don't cry to your momma about it later on...or any mods for that matter.

    I don't know how many times I have to say it. Buy a USB adaptor for a Playstation controller. It is the best D-Pad in the world, and unlike all the crap you posted, it's not one solid piece that will ruin the whole controller

    Indeed. I'm using the PlayStation controller and it's so great.



    But this is the way it's connected to my PC:



    Yep, I made this connection. Kinda easy. It's connected to a LPT1 port (the one old printers use) and it's not powerful enough to make analog sticks and vibration work.

    I'm trying to get an USB adapter for it, but I can't find any here.

    Do Xbox 360 controllers have USB plugs? Sorry for the ignorance, but Xbox 360s are out of everyone's hands here.
