Xbox 360 controller on PC

[Raksha]

I would rather have a controller that feels light than one that has a "nice heft" to it. I'd rather be holding a bundle of feathers in my hands than a candlepin bowling ball.

The "lightweight" controllers just feel cheap, and i've never been satisfied with the analog sticks. The xbox360 controller isnt too heavy, its just right.

Majority of the 360 controller heft for me comes from the stupid batteries, which creates the hump that annoys my big hands. Shame they never released a version of the controller with a built-in lithium-ion battery.

@ above: ummm.... where are the buttons?

HINT: It's not really a gamepad.

I don't trust cheap non computerized lipo chargers which is what a lipo powered gamepad would almost certainly use. Non computerized chargers have a way of damaging lipos over time and damaged lipos have a way of exploding and burning down your house.

No worse than the generic chinese AA-rechargable batteries the official Microsoft rechargable battery pack contains.

Almost all batteries are made in china no matter what brand they are. Also NiMH batteries don't literally catch on fire and explode like a firework the way lipos do.
