What's a good gamepad for Windows 8?

✔ Answered

Hi all. I just got a new desktop that I can actually play games with (finally switched out my 6 years old laptop) and I am looking for a gamepad / controller. I was considering Logitech gamepads (F310 or F710) but a lot of people are saying that they don't work on Windows 8. Any suggestions?

360 controller is great, widely supported, and requires no driver or 3rd-party applications to use.

Dualshock 4 from Sony is fantastic. Comes with a touchpad you can use as a mouse as well, which can be toggled on and off.

Is it hard to make it connect properly? Can you re-map the buttons?

I dont have a Bluetooth enabled computer so I wouldn't know about that, but connecting it via USB is as simple as it would seem. Odk about remapping either, I haven't used it much. Try googling it. Ds4 on computer or something.
