DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Fantasy & Gaming PC controller question

OK folks. I just picked up the entire EA sports 2006 collection. I intend to play online with my bro. I've never had any success with PC cotrollers in the past, and Madden is just really a pain with a keyboard, especially mine since its a curved job.

So, what controllers are good, have good button setups, and best yet, work well with EA games. The controllers I've had in the past are either junk, or very hard to get an acceptable setup and layout. Any opinions, comments or war stories would be greatly appreciated.

Here's the one I have.

Logitech Rumblepad

Reasonable price and pretty close to most console style controllers if you are used to those.

Thats the one I use also. More or less just like the playstation controller and Madden recognizes it. So no dealing with setting it up unless you want to.

Logitech is the way to go. Sturdy , reliable, responsive, fair priced.
I think Madcatz makes nice stuff too. but do not know if they make PC controllers or not.
Also you can use a USB wired 360 controller on your PC. 360 controller for Windows

Here's the one I use, I like it. http://www.keenzo.com/showproduct.asp?ID=1013181&ref=FRG1

Sounds good. The 360 controller looks pretty cool. It's important that the pad has some sort of pre config for Madden though. I used a logitech (forgive my nostalgic term)joystick and I could never get it configured just right. I was trying to use it for tribes and it never worked out.
