Decent game controller?

TPro is good yes, still got mine but gave it to my nephew as I use the Hexgaming Phantom and G7 Pro.

@mrk speaks highly of it, but I don't know of another DS4-styled controller that matches the features of newer controllers such as the G7 Pro...

It certainly looks like it is feature packed. I'll do some digging on it. Everything else seems more XBox style control.

TBH I just plug my PS5 contoller into the PC and enjoy it that way. Can occasionally be irritating with a cable but I don't think I'm ever really noticing it after 30s.

Agree, never bothered me playing with a cord using the PS5 pad.

Yeah most probably do something like this and see how I get on.

Get a lightweight USB cable like those that come with gaming mice, that's what I use and it will feel wireless at all times vs those stiff USB cables that twang about.

Nobody likes a twanger.

I use a PS5 pad but without the cord. Works well enough wirelessly just drop it in a dock when it needs a charge (have two so swap between them)

You’re wrong actually. Twanger is a very nice cheese.

Smell my cheese you mother!

Has anyone done the rise back paddle mod on a ps5 controller? Tempted to get a used controller and play about with that (so I don't ruin two basically new controllers)
