Want to play GTA V on PC, but hate flying with keyboard plus mouse controls (driving is fine). Best options out there?

Xbox elite controller. Wait for v2 for Bluetooth or get the wireless adapter.

I'm not sure I play enough to justify dropping $150 on it.

I use this one, Logitech F310 (940-000110) Gamepad. Its $25 bucks on newegg. It does pretty well. NOT the best, but usable. You can change the controller settings per game. I use this with steam and non steam games. Not GTA V though.

ETA I haven't played GTA V.

I mean, you asked for the best. The elite is the best.

I just use a wired 360 controller. Works fine for me, and they're cheap.

I switch between a wired 360 controller and a Logitech F310.
Playing GTA on keyboard and mouse has never been a problem for me.

There's one for PS4 now too. The wireless one actually costs $50 more than XB1E.

That is fair - I just honestly didn't think they were that high. Of course they are though :)

Thanks, not sure how that helps answer my question though.

Congrats I guess?

Oh, I did. That's like saying, "The best version of Windows is Windows 7. Of course, I use a Mac."

Xbox 360 wired controller is what I have settled on after years of trial. It's great

But it can't be the best since it doesn't cost the most.

Thanks for the recommendations, fellas! Will be taking note of these.

By the way, just in case anyone’s interested, my contact is selling a few Foose Wheels. If anyone’s interested, feel free to PM me.
