I would like to get a good controller for playing games like the Overlord series. I am thinking about a wired one and probably some kind of an older model (cheaper). First idea was Xbox 360 controller but people say it's not easy to configure it. I also read about SC Controller GUI, but it is currently quite limited to a couple of models.
Can you recommend me one?

Official Microsoft XBOX 360 usb wired controller - really like this, tends to work very nicely out of the box, with minimal configuring. Remember being wowed that I load up Rocket League and everything working perfectly, with no tweaking at all.
Clone XBOX 360 usb wired controller - works almost as well as the official one, good to get one as a "spare" or if "on a budget".
Steam (Wireless) Controller - The most configurable. From time to time, I've had issues with it. Nearly every game, you're going to want to mess around tweaking and getting the config set up.
PS3 bluetooth controller - One day, I'll probably get this working. Haven't really messed with it.
Mini no-brand bluetooth controller - Looks a bit like a SNES controller. Got it for Android gamepad gaming, but have barely used it. Had real problems using it to play games on Steam. (Not recommended!)

After some consideration, I think I will go with the Xbox 360 controller.
Also, I'm no zealot, but I just don't see myself buying anything from Microsoft. :P
