Gamepad bread

What controllers does Ganker use? My 3rd piece of shit DualShock 4 just breathed it's last and I'm sick of them at this point. I need something else.
Are the official XBONE ones reliable? I don't care about the analog locations anymore.

      Not him but dualshit 4 is literally the only controller i ever needed multiple of
      Anything pre 3 is nigh unkillable, 3 only had slightly worn sticks and dead battery after like 6-8 years (replaced for cheap, just works), joycons work great after replacing the crap sticks with non crap ones, pro controller is like new after minor cleaning, aqua shift xbox x controller still works perfectly fine and only with DS4 one got worn to the point it looks like it was used for like 20 years straight and another didn't even work
      garbage battery life only makes it worse

    50% of xbone dpads misclick or double click. Series are better but still need a membrane.

    My xbox one pad lasted like 6 years but then the dpad gave in due to abuse from fighting games. Tried replacing the contacts but it didn‘t quite work.
    The RB button on my xbox series pad stopped working after a little over two years, they use flimsy af plastic to engage the switches and it broke off.
    Bought some third party replacement part and repaired it and now it‘s working again.

        It works natively for COD and RE4, and even of it did not, gyro would be best on PC, when you bind gyro to the mouse, you get native-tier gyro for many games.
        see

        ?si=vIdfFSedo9ltrXFv
        Where gyro on PC is BETTER than gyro on PS5, cause gyro is basically mouse-aim, the gyro on PC that is working like a mouse is far better than what capcom does, which has sensitivity caps and large deadzones like it was a stick.
        the only drawback is some games do not accept simultaneous mouse and gamepad input, but this can be worked around.

        Not him but I use the touchpad and the home button on my DS4 a lot. I rebind it to take screenshots, toggle reshade, toggle freecam, or some game specific thing. Like I'm playing Dragon's Dogma right now and I bound the lantern to the touch pad instead of having to reach over and press 1. When I played TW3 a few years ago I would bind cape/hood toggles to it for comfy immersion.

        I'm having major success in my home with steam remote play. On my steam deck streaming from my PC adds but 10ms of latency (over WiFi nonetheless), on my big 4k TV via a dedicated steam link box it adds 20 ms which still feels great to play since my days of competitive multiplayer are behind me. Problem is the steam link breaks my chromecast so I'm gonna try the shield as an alternative. Plus the shield does 4k which the steam link can't.
