>Argonian thief< Posted July 19, 2004 Posted July 19, 2004 ok so my almost brand new 5 day old xbox controller brakes. Now im really pissed because i havent even slammed it into a wall or anything yet and i dont have the reciet or anything
FlightlessBird Posted July 19, 2004 Posted July 19, 2004 ....(waits for moderators to see topic)...sorry about the controller....
>Argonian thief< Posted July 19, 2004 Author Posted July 19, 2004 No wait a sec this topic isnt totally useless. Does anybody have any recomdations as to what controllers i should be using. this one that just broke was a pelican elclispe. ive used a mad cats one as well and that lasted for a few months. Ive also used some other weird one called intense or somthing. any ideas?
valdir Posted July 19, 2004 Posted July 19, 2004 Sounds like you just got unlucky. I've put my original Xbox controllers (the DUKES) through hell in the past seven months, and they still work perfectly. A tad bit greasy though... ~Valdir.
UberBender Posted July 19, 2004 Posted July 19, 2004 I really enjoy the Controller S put out by Microsoft. They are the highest quality controllers on the market and the most comfortable. (out of any console) The price is worth what you get. 10/10
FlightlessBird Posted July 20, 2004 Posted July 20, 2004 I just use the plain controllers. They work fine and arnt that hard to hold. Plus i didnt feel like buying new-fangled ones... although i heard about one new controller with a built in fan to cool your hands... Sounds good to me :D
UberBender Posted July 20, 2004 Posted July 20, 2004 The one with the built in fan can not use the Live headset because it uses the extra power for the fans. Just thought you might like to know that in case you're considering buying one.
>Argonian thief< Posted July 20, 2004 Author Posted July 20, 2004 well you see i would buy controolers with fans built in and everything but theres 2 things stoping me. 1. i dont know were to get one and a trip to fargo right now seems alittle out of the question. 2. im broke! i can hardly afford to race BMX tomorrow. todays monday i dont get paid till friday and im trying to save up for a new comp.
>Argonian thief< Posted July 20, 2004 Author Posted July 20, 2004 nope right now i only have 15$ dollars and BMX is tomorrow so that will eat up some money as well. EDIT: ok i found somthing out. the controller isnt completely broken, it only wokrs half the time. so i get it to work and feel good about myself for about 5 minutes then it cuts out again. Has this ever happened to anyone? Is somthing maybe wrong with the cable? Ive noticed no ones said anything for 2 days so any help will be greatly apprieciated thanks!
