This thing's starting to drift, everything on google recommends

stiff buttons, stiff dpad.
it's shit.
throw it away and get a ps3 or ps4 controller.

>>55714529
>Is this just how these controllers are?
only 360 controllers, maybe xbone(haven't used cannot say)

from my experience the only thing to go bad on playstation ones are the rubber thumb pads

>>55714559
I don't like the feel of the ps4 controller compared to the xbone controller, but considering I'm getting a ps4 once the neo launches anyway, I guess I might as well just grab an extra controller for it. Any recommendations as far as that goes or is the regular ds4 good enough?

Get new Analog sticks and replace them, its the best controller ever made, i replaced both not long ago and its working like new

How bout you dont be a raging nigger and play with it like a normal person?

I had my 360 pad since 2008 and it still works to this day, not to even mention that my Nintendo and Sega controllers are still working after 20 years.

Analog sticks degrade over time I had to replace mine earlier this year after 3200 hours of street fighter and countless hours played on other games

>I really love how they feel, but would have a hard time justifying using it if this is going to be something I'm going to have to do often.
It's like a 30 minute solder job every 2000+ hours.

The problem is that you will probably buy some shitty knockoff analog stick on Ebay form China that will break in 100h of use.

Any suggestions on what sticks to buy, then?

Is there some way you can tell if they're any good before buying them?

>>55714761
nope, but this one has good rating so i guess its good

also i hope you know how to solder, because it has many solder points

>>55714529
You shoryuken'd it to shit, you dumb fuck!

A good rating on these chink sites means very little, 5 stars means 'it arrived and looks like it was the thing I wanted'

There isn't a single all-around good controller. Prove me wrong.

>Analog sticks degrade over time
As soon as I read this my first thought is you're a fighter player.
>3200 hours of street fighter
Yup.

Vast majority of cases where analog sticks are worn out are due to guys really into fighting games. Used to know competitive Smash players. Holy shit did those guys rekt controllers.
