I had the original G-15. (With blue backlighting, and a flip up LCD screen. It was a good keyboard, but I replaced it with a Razor Lycosa. This is a badass keyboard with great feel on the buttons as they have a rubber-like coating to them. Also, you can press at least 5 keys at once.

As for a PC controller, plug in a XBOX 360 controller and be done with it. (Or buy the USB wireless adapter and use a wireless 360 controller.)

How do you program an Xbox 360 controller to work with your computer?

I've tried it, but the middle button just keeps flashing green as if it's "on" but it isn't reacting with anything.

I'm currently using a Universal USB Converter which allows me to use a PS2. Gamecube or an XBox (original) controller. I sadly bought it at Wal-Mart for a surprisingly cheap price (5 bucks)If I could find it online, I'd send you the link.

You need the wireless gaming adapter for the 360 wireless controller to work with a PC. Otherwise, the wired 360 controller works out of the box.

Hope I'm not too late. Any controller or combination of controllers you buy, DO NOT buy a game Elements Recoil Analog Pad. Worst controller ever, this thing has me dying on the Butter Bridge levels of SMW, and Sabin's blitzes on FFVI are near-impossible with this controller. Worst piece of hardware I've ever bought. FYI everyone.

I have a Logitech Precision which is basically a cheap-looking USB Playstation controller. I've punished it viciously through the years and it seems to be pretty indestructible. You can get them for like 10 bucks. Worth it, IMO.

...Same controller I have, and yeah, it's pretty indestructible. I also have a Logitech Dual Action, which is great for side-scrollers, and some 'GGE909 Recoil' controller that doesn't get used at all...

GGE909, that's the one that is truly the worst input device I've ever plugged into a piece of electronic hardware. Terrible. I'm not surprised that you say that it doesn't get used Arcane. That things garbage.
