I've never used a gamepad since like the early 2000's with my PC. Played mostly MMO/strategy/RTS game so keyboard and mouse was preferred. I am actually getting into playing some remakes and retro games on my PC and keyboard/mouse doesn't cut it.
So any recommendations on a gamepad for usage with PC. I have a lot of classic games on my Steam account and would like to play them on the controller. Also scoping out Fallout 4 for this year. Whats a good gamepad to play games like this, also is it a plug and play thing or do they need programmed, hows that work?
Would I be good with just an xbox360 controller thats got the USP or is there a better alternative? I don't mind spending up to $40-$60 if it's worth it.
