− | ===PlayStation | + | Why the DualShock over the 360 or FX10 series? For one thing, it has the best D-pad out of the lot, which when emulating older consoles is an automatic win, but it also has 10-bit precision analog sticks, pressure sensitive buttons, and it can be used wirelessly with just a Bluetooth adapter. You can also emulate the 360 controller, so it can play PC games natively too. |

They're all very similar and feature the 'DualShock' layout, and a floating D-pad. The main differences between them are as follows: | |
+ | *F310 is wired and has no rumble ($25) | ||
+ | *F510 is wired and has rumble (is also no longer being made and is $65) | ||
+ | *F710 is wireless and has rumble ($50) | ||
− | + | If you're going down this road, the Logitech F310 is the cheapest solution on this page at $25. | |

− | + | The 360 controller does offer good ergonomics and many prefer its analog stick layout -though there are a lot who feel otherwise- over other controllers. However, the poor D-pad means it's lackluster when it comes to emulating older consoles. | |
