I was looking for a 6 face button pad to play retro 2D games and of course fighters. I've been using it for a few weeks now, and I'm very glad I invested in this pad.In a Windows PC, all you have to is flip the toggle on the bottom of the pad over to PC, and it registers as an XInput device, no drivers necessary. The top of the controller allows you to change the behavior of the shoulder buttons and triggers. The options are to use it normally, or map the RB, and RT buttons to LB, and RT buttons, and the LB and LT buttons are mapped to L3 and R3. Also featured is a Turbo button which fires approx. 20 button presses a second (measured roughly using joytokey, notepad and a stopwatch). Turbo has two functions: turbo on button press, or full auto which registers button presses continually until you tell it to stop. A green LED on the pad tells you that Turbo is active. One more toggle switch allows you to change the behavior of the D-Pad. It can act as the D-pad, Left analog stick, or Right analog stick.In your hands, your index fingers wrap comfortably around the controller and onto the triggers. It grips with your middle and ring fingers, and there is almost no pressure at all, making it great for long gaming sessions. The controller is lightweight in construction, but the shell is solid and has roughly the same texture as a PS controller. The USB cable is of a generous length, measuring about 10 feet.My inaugural play session was with Killer Instinct 2 on MAME. I was initially worried about thumb fatigue on the D-pad since it sticks out a fair ways from the controller base, but its slight concave shape and surprisingly natural rocking motion makes sure that it doesn't dig in to your finger. This made it easy to pull off KI's fast-paced combos using quarter and half-circles and F,D,DF motions. Play sessions with Mortal Kombat X and Killer Instinct (2013) solidified this opinion. I prefer the Hori over an X360 or XOne controller, even.There's only one real fault I can find with the controller. On games that require you to press or hold multiple buttons at a time, like say Primal Rage, the pad isn't comfortable to use "claw style" (detaching your right hand and using two or more fingers on the face buttons). If it's an option, try to map multiple button presses to the shoulder buttons and triggers. However, that's a minor gripe and not worth knocking a partial star for.For anyone that's on the fence about the purchase, I understand. At the time of writing, it's nearly $45 for yet another gamepad in your home. If you're a retro gamer or a fighter, this is an easy recommendation and absolutely worth the asking price.
