A big advantage is that you can use it both on the PS1, PS2, PS3 and PC. And all this is no cable required ideal for my needs.
The form is in my opinion a bit strange. Sure, this thing fits comfortably in your hand. However, I would have rather as a desired shape, such as those having the gamepad the XBOX from Microsoft. You just "more" in hand and above all something heavier / Wertigeres.
But the processing of this gamepad Thrustmaster's fine. The software runs properly under Windows 7 (x64). You can download the latest drivers / software from the Thrustmaster website at no charge.
The pad even offers the possibility to make a number of programming. However, this is a bit tricky, because it can not be programmed via software, but you have to press various keyboard shortcuts to accomplish the. It is, however, contain an illustrated instructions included, which proposes among other things, various gamepad options for the respective Games genre. Thus, you can program the pad individually. Because it has an internal memory, these settings are retained even if the batteries run out or go once you turn off the pad.
Turning off the pad is doing well after 4-5 minutes. A second press of the start button reactivates the pad then. Thus you will save batteries in the event that you should fall asleep in a boring game, for example, time ;-)!
All in all I'm very happy for the price with the pad. Sure, it is a bit older ... but as long as it works and if one has are just like me, a PS2 at home ... it's ideal. Especially since I do not play too often and now does not have to have lying around 2 Pads for the PC and the PS2 at home.
I'd put my heart every need of a platform-wide pad, which is yet to wirelessly.
Since it is apparently only be obtained from Italy this pad, delivery took a little longer. Approximately 5-7 business days you have to plan in any case. To 20.44 EUR for the pad again about 12.99 EUR will be added for the postage, which would have the dealer.
Nevertheless, I recommend the pad thoroughly!
