The Dpad is some pur D ****

I seriously can't even play a fighting game with out the **** not moving properly. It also **** up my hands. MS fails for making just a horrible D-Pad. Am I forced to use this **** or are there any other controllers out here?

Uh. Well the D-Pad wasnt really intended to be used for primary controls. Its more of a one-press kind of setup (eg. changing weapons). I do use it on the Mega Drive Collection though and would on Street Fighter if I had it. So I know where you're coming from. But still it's not really their fault.Hotwire246

i dont like it either, i use the analog stick for everything though.. only game i use the dpad for is umk3

Yeah the d-pad is pretty horrible... You think they'd learn from the first xbox but I guess not... I hate it cuz even when playing RE5 and use the shortcut keys on the d-pad it ends up reading a different direction giving me a weapon I don't want... Street Figther IV takes the cake for me though... I think I'm gonna buy that fighter pad...

Agreed, the D-pad is awful!

For those who say that the d-pad isn't used much, one has to consider all the classic games and certain DLC that make better use of the d-pad than the analog stick would. These games are difficult to play using either one. I wish MS would make an updated first party controller with a better d-pad.

I don't use it to much so yeah.

im not a fan of the d-pad either... but i've played with a lot worse...i remember playing street fighter alpha 2 on the original playstation with a Mad Katz controller, and the d-pad would litterally tear the bottom of your thumbs when you try to pull off moves... at least the 360 one doesn't do that to me...lol

well this goes to show that u really cant make everybody happy in this corrupt world
