Default Which console controller to PC adapter do you use/recommend?

Hey guys! I know a few of you out there use Xbox controllers on your PC for games such as Psychonauts. I just want to know... how well does it work and which adapter would you recommend? I'm also looking for a PS2 controller-to-PC adapter as well, any recommendations on that as well? Thanks

I use one, and it works awesome! Granted, some games it doesn't work too well with, usually because there aren't enough button on an xbox controller to fit all the functions a keyboard provides, but when it does work, it works flawlessly. Two games in which it worked perfect was Physconauts and Obscure. It didn't work too well with thief 3 though. I got mine on ebay for about $6, This one to be exact. When you get it, you'll have to download drivers for it. There are a few choices out there, but I use and reccomend XBCD drivers. All in all, for $6, it's well worth it.

ahhh, coool.. thanks for the tip! That looks like a great deal for an adapter, and I'll look into it. How about it folks, any PS2 controller-to-PC adapter users out there? Or can anyone recommend one to me? pretty please...?
