Logitech F310 Wired Gamepad, Controller Console Like Layout, 4 Switch D-Pad, 1.8-Meter Cord, PC - Grey/Blue

Bought this to play on the Tesla. Works perfectly with Tesla AND PC. All I needed to do was plug this into a usb hub connected to the car and it works straight out of the box. No hassle of recharging etc.. great quality, responsiveness is instant with zero lag due to being wired and very comfortable to hold while playing. I’ve gone and bought another one the next day. A+++

This is a great controller, and a real "Life-Saver" for those people with Windows 7 and Steam.I did decide to stay with Windows 7 on my PC, rather than upgrade to Windows 8 or 10. However, I did find it incredibly difficult to find any controllers which would work with Windows 7, since no new drivers were being issued to it.After buying several controllers, all of which didn't work with Windows 7, only Windows 10, I had the good fortune to find this on the Amazon website. I downloaded the software in the "Instruction Booklet" it came with, and it worked straight away, both with Windows 7 and Steam.I have some photos above for clarity:[Photo 1] The photo shows the controller to be of a good quality design, with both the top and underside being of a solid smooth good quality plastic like an Xbox One or PS4 controller. It has a very dark blue/black top, and a black underside with a selector switch for the 2 main industry standard modes of either the modern "XInput" mode for new modern games, or "DirectInput" for the older classic games.[Photo 2] Shows the included "Logitech Profiler" app working with the controller in "DirectInput" mode to program the controller for an older classic game, like "Star Wars: TIE Fighter" were setting may not exist on the internet due to the age of the game.[Photo 3] Shows the Steam app on Windows 7 accepting the controller in "XInput" mode for new modern games, and assigning its own game settings automatically to it.[Photo 4] Shows the Steam app on Windows 7 accepting the controller in "DirectInput" mode for a older classic games, and assigning its own game settings automatically to it.I have found this to be a great controller, and if I had another Windows 7 PC, I would certainly buy another one of these excellent controllers!

I would recommend buying this gamepad, but to also buy another good one from another manufacturer. Here's why.The biggest feature of this little beauty is the D-PAD, It's an absolutely lovely microswitched beast. Feels and plays great!The buttons are clicky and they do the job nicely, no complaints there. The clicky shoulder buttons (LB and RB) feel a little cheap though and the squidgy (LT and RT) ones take far too much force to press.The controller is reasonably sturdy (Not as much as a modern Microsoft or Sony one though). I'd put it around PS2 level sturdiness.The one critical flaw is how big it is, the nubs are really irritating to get to and juggling them with the shoulder buttons is absolute torture with constant hand position switching.It's not just a little thing either, after about 30 mins of a hat in time my thumbs were killing me :(It's a real shame as the rest is absolutely killer and I wanted to support logitech more because microsoft can eat a fat one for making such an insultingly horrible D-PAD for their controllers. (Sony's D-PAD is quite nice but not on the excellent level of logitech's)Buy this for 2D retro games that work best with a D-PAD but if you want to play something 3D, Microsoft's controller is actually really well designed for that purpose, same with Sony's so pick which of those you'd prefer and put it in the basket with this.

As it says in the headline best I've used, my main controllers in the past have been an old Microsoft xbox 360 controller and a Steam controller to me this is better than both. I've been modding Skyrim for years on and off but could never get it to work with the SC and on the 360 controller which is larger I always used to catch button B during combat that opened the menu this got very annoying but has been perfect on this f310. In fact everything I've used has been great, I originally brought one of these for my friend and his daughters to use as I've just given them my old gaming capable PC and they are more used to consoles. I liked the look of it so brought one for myself.The only things to watch out for are the extra button below the back button that switches the roles of the left stick and dpad is easy to hit by mistake and the buttons needed to be reprogrammed islightly n Assassins Creed 2 which I got for one of my friends girls as she had the first game on their old second hand xbox 360. Not exactly huge problems.

brilliant value for money , solid build with a very nice feel, comfortable with sturdy forceback buttons, Ive bought a few controllers over the years, this one is the best yet for pc use and xbox. Absolutely amazing value and exceptional quality and value for money.....and a long lead too!

Without a doubt one of the best gamepads ever made, it may be an old design but the build quality is top class and puts to shame some of the so called premium brands.
