Hi Steve, Well, I have been looking into this issue myself, and unfortunately most manufacturers are no longer producing game pads for the PC. Your best bet is to get an XBox 360 controller from Microsoft with a PC adapter if you care about Windows 7 and Windows 8 compatibility. For some reason Logitech, Philips, and others are still making controllers but not 64-bit drivers for newer PCs. Meaning if you get a new Logitech controller and you have a 64-bit PC you have to depend on the generic Microsoft drivers which may not fully support the controller such as force feedback and some programmable buttons etc.
Cheers!
