Product Information
The top aspects on any gamer's wish list are precision, comfort and control, which are features found in the Microsoft Xbox 360 Gamepad. The wireless 2.4 GHz technology supports playing distances of up to 30-feet from a personal computer or Xbox console for unbounded freedom and enjoyment, especially when plugging in headsets. To ease hand fatigue, the close proximity of thumb sticks, two triggers, and the eight-way directional pad ensures users play for hours without succumbing to aches and pains. For a more exhilarating, real life experience, use the vibration feedback feature to feel every bump, shake, and jerk from crashes and weapon fires.

Pretty good, but maybe not for modern systems
Its a pretty good keypad. It has a easy to use configuration program that you can program to do alot (though I was having problems mapping macros to the scroll wheel :/). The main flaws, in my opinion, is the lack of support for the program in modern days, and the device likes to 'forget' its loadout whenever the computer goes to sleep or after long periods of time without use. I'd recommend the Razer version instead, though beware they tend not to like USB Hubs or having other Razer devices plugged in at the same time.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Good for macros and MMO's... Absolute trash for FPS.
I also own a Razer Nostromo and a Belkin n52te. This pad works just as well as those two except in two major areas. Probem(s) #1: The orange button above the D-pad required FAR too much pressure to be usable. I usually use that key for weapon switching in FPS games, but the amount of pressure required to activate the switch throws my hand balance all off. The 15 key that also acts as the Space Bar is one of the worst designed keys I've ever used. It's a wide key with a very small piston to hit the button underneath. You have to press the button dead center and only push straight down to make it work. If you hit the button on the side, or push at a slight angle, it won't register. These two flaws were fixed in future designs. Prolem #2: The software that manages this keypad is a nightmare. Later versions fixed this by utilizing Razer Synapse.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

If you play FPS games, this is a must.
If you want a little bit of an edge over mouse+keyboard players, this is a good option. I bought this as an upgrade to my n50 (to the n52). The n52 has the 3rd row of keys with places your fingers in perfect alignment for shift/ctrl addtions. Great product from Belkin. From what I have heard, there is a Nostromo n52 by Razor... that is not as durable and the lights on it are distracting.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great product to elevate your play.
Sturdy and reliable, with a multitude of programmable keys to fit any gaming style. Save loadouts for different games and even for different characters or situations in the same game. This is a replacement for my previous one, which easily withstood fifteen years of use and abuse.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

New Really
The keys are terribly sticky - I've had to order another due to the unwieldy character of this one. The others I have used are great for the job - this doesn't match up at all - not for a "new" product.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

brokes after 11 days of use
The price was lower than I'd seen for most of these so I took a chance. Unfortunately it broke within 11 days. Scroll wheel stopped working and then the d-pad too. I opened it up to try to fix it but couldn't. It's a used product but it was a lot more used than I thought.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Works like a charm.
I'm testing the other gaming pads and so far I'm leaning towards this one so far of em. I've tested the tartarus v2 and nostromo and nostromo n52.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

You will love this gaming device the minute you start using it, guaranteed.
I have been using the Belkin for 15 years. This is the second one I bought in 15 years. Are they reliable you bet. Made gaming a so much easier, I don't know why everyone doesn't own one.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
