I am thinking of buying one of them. I read the 360, and even the PS3 one... will work with PC's.
I can understand the 360 one with windows, but the PS3 one? I saw a review online that says the PS3 one will work with the PC.

If it does work with the PC... That's awesome. They look good enough, but Madcatz is really hit or miss here. :(
MadCatz may very well be redeeming themselves (or close to) with this SFIV effort. They've put a lot of TLC into it, and collaborated with the right people for it.
Nuby's effort back in 2004 was forgettable. I own the PS2 Street Fighter Anniversary Edition pad (Akuma, $5 new at Blockbuster w00t) and it really isn't a good fighting game pad. The packaging is friggin' nice though, as is the included comic. I'm glad I only paid $5 for it.
360 one is wired, so it is penis to me.
Useless old man penis.
Also the art is ugly.
Half of the games I play on the 360 are 2D, and I do not have a controller for the PC so fingers crossed that this is at least worth the price tag.
I also hate the diamond mapped face buttons for Genesis games, so that is a plus as well.
I am not even buying Street Fighter IV. =/
I don't mind it being wired... I have like... I dunno... FIVE Double Cheese Burgers, oh wait, I mean USB Ports on the front of my case, and five more on the back. Plus I have enough friggin receivers as is on my entertainment center...
Thank God for these! I can't stand trying to play Super Street Fighter II HD with my standard 360 pad.
I also like to show off my dick... err I mean computer.Quote:

You know, when you said mad Catz controller I figured they would be crap, but those actually look pretty nice.
I'll Probably skip on them since there made by Madcatz, I bought a few things from them a while ago and they were total crap and everyone else I've known and talked to whos bought one of there products has had the same experience.Quote:

Wired is fine for me. I don't care too much for the shape, though. Also, the circular d-pad looks like it leaves much to be desired. If you are going to have a circle pad, at least have a raised cross on it like the Genesis 6-button and Saturn pads.
This is the one feature that the PS3 has, that totally blows the 360 out of the water. I have the official Gran Turismo force-feedback wheel from Logitech (PS2) and it works perfectly with PS3 racing games. The same can be said for the PSOne arcade sticks, used with a USB adapter. When I do get Street Fighter IV, it'll be on the PS3, because I won't have to spend the extra cash on another controller.
they also make a better one with either hori or happ internals instead of the bootleg Madcatz crap. Who needs that, though, when you have a Namco PSX joystick with Hori guts that you got for $10 :) . PS2 backwards compatibility FTW.
I am so in love with these controllers its not even funny. I was prepared to pay out the ass to try to get my Saturn controller to interface with my PS3, except apparently it isn't really possible or feasible but these look just as good. It'll also be great for the few shmup's on my PS3, and will probably give me the strength to go back through Mega Man 9, as I always just loose lose hope/interest somewhere in the Wiley castle.
