Aaaaand the XBone gamepad I use for all my PC gaming just broke and is now sending spurious inputs, rendering it useless for everything.

Any recommendations for a wired X360-compatible gamepad that'll last more than eight months and doesn't treat the D-pad like an afterthought?

@ElectricKeet At least for the time being, you can borrow mine. You get much more use out of it than I do. At least when I'm not home while you're looking for alternatives.

@literorrery Thanks, love! I'll go ahead and test with the DS3 first, since we have those Just Sitting Around, but that'll be a good fallback plan if if I do have to purchase Yet Another Gamepad. (I have the worst luck with these, so I kinda wanna spare yours if I can!)
