Game pad Saitek P2700R


Recommended Posts

One of the most comfortable gamepads to use is that of the Xbox 360

I use it on my PC to play grid and it is a joy.

 

I have a PS3 which has this controller

This I find less useable in driving games. I use the triggers to accelerate and brake and the left thumbstick to steer. The position of the thumbstick is perfect on the Xbox360 controller.

 

But as you can see the thumb stick and pov buttons are inverted on the PS3 controller. This puts the thumb in an awkward position and I cant use it. I also find the triggers curve inwards and my fingers seems to want to slip off. So I end up using the buttons like I did on the PS2.

 

I have just bought the Saitek P2700R and as you can see it allows you to swap the position of the thumbstick and pov button on the left hand. Also the triggers dont curve inwards so my fingers seem to stay in position.It works on PS3 and PC. I tried it on the PS3 in GT5 prologue and it responds similarly to the Xbox 360 controller when playing grid. If you are having trouble with driving games on the PS3 I recommend this controller.
