Thrustmaster Run-N-Drive PC/PS3 Wireless Gamepad (BmR)

(Benchmark Reviews) Since testing computer hardware products is a PC-centric task, Benchmark Reviews has never wandered very far from what we know. But after writing my editorial Year In Review: 2008 Computer Hardware Industry Failure it seemed wrong not to taste the forbidden fruit... so we purchased a Sony PlayStation 3. Aside from the PS3 system, which quickly received an Editors Choice Award-winning Solid State Drive upgrade, I also purchased nearly two-dozen games and a Blu-ray remote control. I soon discovered that my racing skills were lacking... and I needed an edge. Enter the new-and-improved Thrustmaster Run'N'Drive wireless gamepad, model 4160527. Now unplugged and built around the 2.4 GHz wireless radio band, this PC/PS2/PS3-compatible controller takes the Sony SIXAXIS to the next level and adds an optical wheel and under-belly triggers.

I have noticed with all 3rd party controllers is what they can't do is - you cant press the left analogue (L3) while the stick is in fully forward position. Only official Sony pads are able to do this correctly so therefor all others just dont even compare with official products.

I mean..I have enough USB ports for adapters..just it would be nice ya know?

onijutsu6262d ago

that dpad looks like fail to me

catastrophee6262d ago

single button d-pads blow and 3rd party controllers almost always have that. not sure if its a money saving thing or what but i hate it.

Matpan6262d ago

I stick to the XBOX360 wireless controlller plus the PC adapter... I somehow find that controller far superior to the PS3´s. If it had a better D-pad, It would be my choice for best controller ever. Anyways. This looks quite sleek!

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing42d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit42d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing42d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9242d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
