Looking to buy a wireless gamepad for my PC.I am looking at the Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2 with Vibration Feedback (963326-0403) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/customer-reviews/B0002XJBGE/ref=cm_cr_dp_all_top/103-2852878-8115032?ie=UTF8&n=172282&s=electronics#customerReviews.
The pad has to be wireless but doesn't have to have the Feedback feature.Any and all feedback would be apreciated.

I don't know much about game pads; but for that price at amazon, I'd buy it. In fact, I might.

RWB if you have a Ritz Camera near you you might want to check them out. There online price is $31.69. I don't know if they carry it in there store fronts but if they do it would make returning easier if you don't like it.

Honestly the Xbox 360 wireless controller is the best controller I've ever used on a PC. You can get the controller + the wireless adapter kit for the PC.

Thanks prime have you used the Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2 ? RWB if you are going to get the Logitech (or the 360) check out the following site,the prices are ok and if you are a first time Google buyer you get $10 off.

The 360 at that site is only for XBOX they don't have the one for PC.

The wired 360 controller works natively with Windows XP and vista, trust me. You can also buy the windows wireless adapter if you want to use a wireless controller.

Thanks again. There is also a wireless 360 for PCs now it is a bit more costly than the wired but there is no need for the adapter.
