The controller itself is very good, a far better fit for my hands than Playstation's design, and the analogue sticks are better because the bowl shape cups your thumbtips. However, I prefer the shoulder buttons on the PS3 controller and the D-pad on this one is near-useless.

It's the best choice for a modern PC gamer though, due to its instant compatibility with any Games for Windows branded game, and the third-party software "xpadder" makes it easy to get it working for any other game too, making it as close to the definition of 'plug and play' as any controller.

The vibration feature is also strong and an excellent inclusion for the price you pay. For games like Devil May Cry 4 and classics such as Beyond Good & ... Read More:

After seeing the G25 about 2 years ago I finally decided to buy it. It is true that it feels of great quality and the smell of real leather is really cool you when you rip open the plastic for the first time. The purpose of this review is to highlight the bad things about it, I was slightly dissapointed when I recieved this, especially because of all the amazing things I have heard about it.

1. The wheel does feel "Notchy" or "Clicky" I have been told that you get used to it and it goes away after a while.

2. The shifter is slightly dissapointing, it is usable but has a "Plasticy" feel to it, at first I was very dissapointed but again you get used to it.

3. Force feedback is slightly unrealistic. This is pretty ... Read More:

Used Price:

I bought this to replace the keyboard that came bundled with my PC and to give me an edge when gaming.

This keyboard doesn't just look good, it feels solid and when playing certain games the LCD display is amazing. On Battlefield 2142 I can see my kills/deaths, my ratios, and my scores on the LCD panel. I have the macro keys set up with common functions I need in the game.

Outside of the game this keyboard performs well with media keys that work well with Vista and media player.

Used Price: £25.31

It is well worth the money as it has several toggle two way switches, other buttons and a hat-switch (8-way). Plus it has a good dual throttle function. It has a light-up missile switch and this joystick is incredibly easy to programme and install. It has a military design and is a perfect shape and is very light-weight. Now the 'BUT...'

The reason it is cheap is because it has cheap plastic so if you are looking for amazing materials look further up the price range. On the other hand this joystick still works fabulously. The missile switch is a bit gimmicky and the buttons are slightly flimsy and cheap looking but for this price the joystick is a bargain.

Problems i had: The 'universal' attachable wrist rest is very difficult to attach ... Read More:

Used Price:

Bought this steering wheel as i wanted to play NFS underground on my PC. It works great with it. Plug in and play, no messing around with drivers etc. Been playing around for a few hours and its great fun, gives driving games a different feel, instead of press left/right on 2 buttons.

There are 6 levels of sensitivity, so should suit your needs, and has vibration. Which you can switch on/off.

Good value for money, recommended.

Venom USB Joypad Controller (PC)

Having purchased this item way back in July 2007, I have to say it truly is superb. I'll cover all the relevant topics regarding this controller, ranging from value to durability, the pros of each and the cons (if any).

Durability - Top stuff so long as you keep it in a good safe place! You will drastically reduce its lifetime by chucking it around, banging it and using excessive force while playing, just like a usual controller for a gaming console (Dualshock etc...) Nevertheless, after over a year of use, my controller is still in prestine condition and hasn't come up with any faults whatsoever. 5/5

Design - Hrm, well the design is where things get a little ... fat. It fits perfectly well into the ... Read More:

I bought the Saitek Cyborg EVO on the recommendation of a friend and on the back of many of the positive reviews on Amazon.

I have to say that it is a a really nicely designed joystick and I did manage to get a fairly full year and a few months out of it. The adjustable hand positions, the multiple button settings (i've had no problem with changing the presets) and the roll bar are all excellent and well placed. So, given all of this, why did I only give this kit 3 stars?

Sadly, I have to agree with one of the other reviews about it's durability and/or craftsmanship. The trigger button barely lasted me a year and I am not such a devoted gamer to justify it breaking. Now, the sensor gets stuck and I find myself firing constantly (using up ammo ... Read More:
