Pretty nifty about the Dualshock controller (when used with the USB adapter). Thanks for the feedback about the d-pad being horrible. This is probably why my original Sidewinder was so bad (it only had a d-pad)...
Yes, I noticed, while configuring the controls for Robotron 2084 or another game, that the d-pad was seen as a POV hat.
