I've never really used my p.c for gaming, until i built my new one, so i dont have a clue about games, so i got a couple and i'm loving life mouse/keyboard at one person shotum ups, but need for speed without a gamespad is fucking shit.
So i'm wondering if anyone could recommend me a good one, where to get it, and under the price of £40 please .
I've heard xbox 360 controllers work with drivers? but some folk said thats deffo not true.

You can buy a 360 controller thats meant for PCs.

You can use Ps2 controllers through USB.
For racing games i'm sure everyone will recommend a wheel and pedals set

You can also use a PS3 Controler which need no adapter's etc! Just a downloadable driver

Nice one Mike, i've bought the 360 pad was £25, so getting a ps3 pad would be about the same, but i might get a ps3 pad also, for 2 player.

The normal wired Xbox 360 pad works fine with Windows XP and later.
The "For Windows" version is just a con.
