I'm contemplating buying the 360 Silver Controller with the rotating D-Pad for Fallout New Vegas, as my current controller isn't very responsive to the corner 'Hot Keys'. Is the new D-Pad responsive?
Yes, the new D-pad is really good at what it does. Makes playing fighting games and games that need use of the D-pad a lot easier (classic games, platformers, etc).
The only thing is, its also way too expensive. $65 just isn't worth it. I bought mine for $30, and I think thats a more realistic price.
As a side note, once you try the rotating D-pad, there is almost no reason to ever switch it back. Its that good.
