Those cheap logitech ones are solid as fuck. I have had my F310 since around the time they came out and it still works like the day I got it. Solid build construction, ability to switch between Direct Input and Xinput, DualShock layout, nice buttons… The only things it doesn’t have are rumble, gyro, and adaptive triggers. Nor are the face buttons pressure sensitive like an actual Playstation controller; tho that doesn’t matter since PC games never utilize those anyway.
I would be willing to bet the OceanGate’s F710 was the only thing of that sub still intact and operational.
Pretty sure the pressure sensitive face buttons were only a thing on PS2 and maybe PS3 anyway.
Sony has long since abandoned those, since most games never used them, and most gamers never got used to them even if they did. Awkward and imprecise at best.
I only ever really noticed them on Gran Turismo 3, and racing games use the triggers for that now.
