castlevania symphony of the night, the dpad is a bit glitchy imo (pressing up and youlll mash left or right aswell), definitely not accurate as it could (should) be. thankfully most games dont use it.

So using arcade stick compensate for the crappy d-pad?

Why do they even have the d-pad then?

No the article is spot on. The d-pad is broken out of the box.

Some days he might want to use the white ones and some days he migh want to use the black ones Wink

Plus its always handly to have 7 on standby charged up ready, its a pain in the ass when your battery pack runs out during a game of COD4 and you have to dig the AA battery holder out then find some charged AA batteries, by the time youve done all that the host has ended the game / left and everyones pissed off Very Happy

I have 2 pads so always have one ready incase the other goes flat. Plus the Charging station is good, doesnt take that long to charge them up.

3 controllers 1 is still in wraps as I got it with the new box (rrod). Controllers are in perfect shape even tho they have been thrown and dropped a lot. But then the MS wheel, I am on my 4th now and its not even 1o months since I bought the original. Doubt I'll get a new one when it breaks and the warranty is over

Yes I´m talking about the d-pad. Too bad, otherwise the controller is really, really good.

I read it but i dont understand what's supposed to be broken? That it doesnt have a membrane? Cause there is no issues with either of my controllers which ive had for 2 years+.

If he had 3 white ones and 4 black ones he would have been a racist. Its that simple.

That it is the worst d-pad ever made. That is the point.
