I prefer playing games on my computer with the keyboard and mouse, but certain games just don't go well without a game controller.

For example, I played FIFA 2003 with my keyboard the whole time and I was pretty good, but with the release of FIFA 2004 and it's more realistic gameplay and controls, this isn't cutting it anymore. In fact, the arrows keys are becoming a little wobbly because of all the use.

So now I'm in the market for a game controller. At first, I was thinking of going with a Microsoft Sidewinder, but see that it hasn't changed much in the past years. Does anyone own a game controller for the PC that they recommend? I was thinking maybe one that was a clone to that of the PS2.

Why not just get a PS2 to PC converter? I got one for my xbox gamepad and it works just fine.

Because I don't own a console system.

So buy the damn converter and the controller together.

Converters run anywhere from $10-$30. I've got PS/PS2 controllers I can spare, too.
