PC Controller rec? (hexbear.net)
submitted 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Mostly looking for a decent quality anyway in regards to button quality and comfort but the main thing is a good analogue stick with no dead zone and it means it. I mostly want it to play f zero x where tilt is crucial. Aside from that just generally decent is fine, but I need a good fidelity stick

That or something I can do to get a ps3 controller working on my computer thst isn't also a bunch of malware

Played F Zero on an original x box controller and it was really floaty. Could be nice for grip cars cause it had a great sensitivity range but it was also a bit too big of a surface to move on. Maybe I'll just get an x box controller for most.ga.es abd a repro n64 controller for f zero.

yea i dont know what to tell you when it comes to fast racing games like that, im not into those games. alls i know is the xbox controller doesnt need extra malware, it has the right amount of malware as is.

I only play one but it's one that having the right stick makes a noticeable difference. It's built for an n64 controller and it's specific range of motion, sensitivity and the octagonal surrounding thingy helps a bit too. Ya gotta be able to nudge around and have a decently quick snap back to center.
