Sure it's been discussed, but thought a poll would be nice.

Keyboard all the way! Been using a keyboard ever since live 98. Tho I might consider buying a controller now because I can't do any of the freestyle moves without a controller.

PS2 to PC adapter coupled with a playstation controller for me!
Why buy a controller to emulate the best when you can have the best? :)

Well said.

Is the adapter reliable? Who's the maker?

Thx.

oh some cheap ass company called Mayflash. Works perfect for me with my PSone controller in Live and NFS:U using the analog sticks and all buttons, except i'm not sure if the buttons themselves are analog (as they are on Ps2) on the PC since i don't have a ps2 controller. Rumble works just as it should too. Here i'll give you the link:
http://www.mayflash.com/pc/Super%20Dual%20Box.asp

I got it off ebay for $6USD. :)

I love your signature (sorry off topic).

Thanks for the link.

Unfortunately anything USD would be more CAD. (Oh wait, you're from Van, BC right?)

Oh well.

I'm looking around for the best deal. Thanks for link, btw.

haha i love that pic too :)

it's not too bad actually. I think i paid a little under $20CAD in the end w/ shipping and everything. Not extremely cheap for a crappy little gadget but oh well the cheapest adapter I have found here (for only one ps controller) is like $35. RIPOFF!

I'd like to play with "Logitech Dual action gamepad PC", unfortunatly, even though Logitech is a well-known Taiwan's manufacturer, gamers in Taiwan could not get "Dual action PC".If I wish to play NBA live using gamepad with 2 analog sticks, I could need to buy one PS2 joystick and connect it to PC through USB convertor . so....I keep playing NBA live with my M$ sidewinder (both USB and gameport version)

Which button pattern is closest to the X-Box controller? and is there a X-Box adapter?

I have the Wingman Rumblepad, but i am not feeling it.

I just got the SuperJoy Box 10 in the mail............. and connected all of it the correct way. Everything is working just as it does on the X-Box, except i can't use the triggers? It won't allow you to assign the triggers to backdown and for speed burst.
Has anyone had this problem?
And are there some updated drivers for this upgrade?

i just got the "Logitech Wingman" and its pretty cool, its just like an x-box and a PS2 controller, it is basically an X-Box controller, but it has 4 shoulder buttons like a PS2 one, instead of triggers

By far the best drivers for the superjoybox 10. That thing didn't work for my brother too when using the supplied drivers or the updated ones from mayflash.com.
Give these ones a try. The interface is more crude, but he said it works fine with all his games now.
