 Defective Product, 2004-01-29
As mentioned the left analog stick is horribly defective. It will send input when centered, not send input when moved, lose it's calibration, whatever you want to call it, but in short, you lose all control of your game. Probably the right stick does it too, but I don't use it for movement so I wouldn't notice.I returned mine 3 times, so I tested 4 controllers. ALL were defective in the exact same way. My old faithful Wingman Rumblepad works flawlessly. I have been waiting now for 3 weeks on an RMA replacement from Logitech. They claim "The product is out of stock, and will be shipped as soon as possible". So, in 3 weeks Logitech themselves are unable to obtain their own gamepads? I suspect they are waiting for a new version with the defects remedied. IF...IF they fix the analog sticks, this would be an excellent gamepad. IF! At this point though, how would a new customer know which one they were getting, the new non-defective version (if it exists), or the same old defective ones from a stockpile in some warehouse?

 These people are on crack!!!! This thing rocks!, 2004-01-28
I have owned the microsoft and the gravis gamepads, and this one just hands down blows em away. If you play NHL2004, get this pad!!!!

 Everything is well until the left analog starts to act weird, 2004-01-25
Just like what everybody is saying, but it doesn't seem that severe to me though. Played NFS: Underground and Prince of Persia with it, when you constantly move the analog button, you won't feel any difference. It is only when you let go off the button and suddenly your guy started to walk by itself! Pity pity, it could be the perfect gamepad out there that resembles PlayStation gamepad...

Don't bother..., 2004-01-24
I just bought it, and I'm taking it back. It worked for about 15 seconds and hasn't worked since...cheap junk.

Mixed bag, 2004-01-01
On the plus side: The controller is very comfortable, the button layout is familiar and versatile, and the analog control is very good... at first.On the down side: The directional pad tends to go diagonally if not pressed exactly right, and the analog sticks wear out very quickly, becoming jittery and losing chunks of their field of movement sporadically during use. Also, the profiler software kills the use of my other gamepad when it is booted up. All in all, this is what could be a flawless pad - except for a couple of flaws, one of them major. Logitech is apparently working on a version with more viable analog sticks, and these should be available by april 2004.
