Product Description
Mad Catz xbox 360 GamePad is officially licensed by Microsoft for use on the xbox 360 gaming console. The xbox 360 GamePad features analog triggers and joysticks. A vibration feedback technology immerses you in the game letting you feel all the action.
The controllers are great. They get the job done but the rumble feature is really weak. Needs a stronger rumble for better gaming experience.
A great alternative to paying for the wireless or namebrand controller. We received the black controller, so it's kind of hard to see a few of the buttons/names on the controller. However, since we already have the white official wireless Xbox controller, and know all the buttons, it wasn't a problem. Buttons are pretty much the same except the start button isn't round, it's a tiny rectangle.
I don't know why they continue to advertise this feature, as it hasn't been on these controllers for a couple of years. So anyone trying to get a fix for Silent Hill Homecoming better keep looking.
Compared to the stock xbox 360 pad, it has a good d-pad, but the controller sticks are atrocious. WHy? b/c they don't have the slighly rubberized grips that the standard 360 controllers do. Plus, the buttons feel very cheap, and on my unit at least the left bumper is a little defective b/c it's squishy. I saved $5 getting this instead of the standard controllre. Get the standard controller.
I was looking for a wired 360 controller for use with an xbox 360 as well as a Mac and Windows. The store ran out of original controllers (which cost $40) and only had these for $25. It was well worth it!
It obviously worked right away for the xbox 360. For the computer, it was perfectly recognized as a MadCatz GamePad and worked with the XBOX 360 drivers for Windows and for Mac OS X. (Had to download both from different websites).
Controller wise, this thing is great. The triggers are much more concave than the original Microsoft controllers, which is how a trigger should feel. Also, the bumper buttons actually FEEL like buttons. They never really felt like anything other than a few clickers on the original controllers, but the MadCatz one makes them big and provides a satisfying click.
The D-Pad is also vastly superior to the original controllers. You can actually click the diagonal with ease. Of course, any D-Pad is probably better than the original 360 ones. But these are extremely good, it's definitely a big plus sign so you can hit the buttons.
My only complaint with it would be that the bumpers and the triggers are too far apart. I would of preferred if the distance were more close, similar to the original 360 controller. This isn't really much of a problem, except it made playing Castle Crashers slightly annoying since the triggers and the bumpers are both used and switched off quickly. However, it does allow the two buttons to be more defined and less prone to accidently hitting the wrong button.
I have not tried the headset input, so I can't comment on that.
I don't have many complaints when it comes to my XBox 360, but the standard controller was one of the few exceptions. The X, Y, A, and B buttons were way too stiff. The shoulder buttons weren't as good as they should have been, and at one point one of them fell off from being used too much, and worst of all, the D-Pad was beyond horrible.
Well no more. The D-Pad on this controller is much more reliable. Especially for games that requires you to use the D-Pad often. For example, I play Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 often, and before the other controller's D-Pad would make me do moves that I didn't want to. This one, however, doesn't give me that problem.
The one downside is the microphone interference. Whenever your using your microphone over live, other players your talking to may here static and such. It's not horrible static, but I'm told it's there. Just be warned that if you're the type of gamer who plays online with other people alot and want crystal clear communication with other players, this controller may not be for you. Otherwise, buy this controller.
