I shall compare this gamepad to its predecessors, the Logitech f310, which included two of them, as well as another Logitech Dual Action gamepad. 1. Ergonomics. The fact that the left stick on the Microsoft gamepad is located in a more accessible area is a minor advantage; but, getting used to any controller takes some time. 2. Your fingertips are far less likely to slide off the stick when you play with the Xbox 360 gamepad. 3. Positioning. In the gamepads manufactured by Logitech, there are in reality two positions: stand and forward. For instance, in Dark Souls, using a stick to capture a position that would only cause the character to walk rather than run is extremely challenging. Stick deflection on the x360 gamepad makes it incredibly simple not just to go from running to zod, but also to pick the speed at which walking (or running) should be done. Fourth, dependability. I got two years of use out of Dual Action. The first F-310 has been in service for a little under two years, while the second F-310 has been in service for close to a year. Since I've had it for more than four years, the only thing that's broken on the gamepad is the right trigger, which occasionally makes a creaking sound. 5. Assistance. All games that are compatible with gamepads support the Xbox gamepad in some form or another. Also, for instance, gamepads made by Microsoft are the only ones that are supported out of the box by games that are currently being sold in the Microsoft Store, such as Forza Horizon. Because of this, I have had nothing but joy throughout the course of more than four years of using the gamepad. There are instances when only the appropriate trigger will creak, and even then, it is not always the case. I strongly suggest it to everyone. However, costs have significantly increased since we last spoke.
