Been using logitech rumblepad, wired one last time bought around $50+/- at challenger, quite good, last for few years already but now the wire like something wrong always disconnect, but overall it work quite well for me. Been like many years though.

Use it to play GTA4, GTA5, FIFA, PES all no driver issues, dont have to download anything, plug and play.

Go for DS4..wont go wrong. Most sg console gamers will buy a ps4 over xbox one. U can use it as ur spare ps4 controller if ur thinking to get a ps4 in future.

There is a version which is charge and play pack.. that one got cable..

the normal version dont have and you do not need because xbox one controller uses the standard micro USB cable.. so literally any USB cable u use for your android phone etc is 100% fine.. the only issue is probably the length.

This is where DS4 comes in a prove useful cos it can connect via BT while XBOne for PC can only connect via cable for now.

Huh, XBone controller can only connect via cable? So the wireless only works with XBOX one console but not PC? But PS4 controller will need a bluetooth dongle on your PC if you have no built-in bluetooth right?

Yes XBox One controller can only connect to PC via Cable. But early next year they will introduce the wireless dongle similar to current xbox360 wireless controller that works with PC.

Yes PS4 works via bluetooth as well as cable. So yes you need to get a bluetooth adapter for your PC if you dont already have one.. but BT dongle not ex is ok right ? i bought a cheapo one from dealextreme many years ago and it works ok.. like $3 only.

I'm currently using DS4windows mapping for Win10 via BT and so far no issue... i use it 80% for emulator for MAME :D quite a hassle to do mapping but it's totally worth it :s13:.

I have both F710 and xbox360 controller for PC.

F710 's trigger button is not that good and spoil easily(I have replaced one and the replacement also spoil in the end). D-pad is good. Advantage is that this has both x-input and the directinput thing.

xbox 360 trigger buttons, and their left/right sticks are better, and overall more comfortable than F710 but the dpad is bad, not accurate.
