I'm normally a fan of Hori, but this is one of the worst controllers I've ever tested
The Horipad for Steam controller is comfortable and has some neat features, such as its pressure-sensitive triggers and full Steam integration. It'd be a worthwhile Steam Controller alternative, were it not for the cheap, hollow build and listless feel during play. If you're looking for a dedicated PC controller, I'd strongly consider just saving up a bit and buying the Steam Controller instead. Or, you know, any other PC-compatible controller. Which is 99% of them.
Pros
- +Seamless integration with Steam
- +Sits comfortably in the hands
- +Cool pressure-sensitive triggers
Cons
- -Middling battery life
- -Cheap build quality
- -Shoddy d-pad
- -Fiddly Bluetooth connectivity
- --'Touch capacitive' sticks are a terrible idea
