Every now and then, I&#8217;m just in the mood for playing Mario Kart for 15 minutes. But, it&#8217;s quite horrible to do that with a computer keyboard. So, I&#8217;ve been looking and looking for a good, cheap, PC game controller. I don&#8217;t need a joystick, analog pads, or rumble features, because I&#8217;m only going to play older games with it. But at the same time, I don&#8217;t want a really cheaply made controller that will fall apart after a few months. The Logitech Precision GamePad only costs $10, and has really good reviews on Amazon. Thus far, I&#8217;ve agreed with the reviews &#8212; it&#8217;s a really comfortable, sturdy controller, that really does just &#8220;plug and play&#8221; &#8212; no drivers or anything required. Recommended if you want to play emulated games. Probably not so good if you want to play modern flight simulators and first person shooters.<\/p>\n<p>This was actually a great birthday present from my wonderful girlfriend.
