I think I’ve found the perfect Xbox 360 controller to cure my Xbox Live Arcade blues – it’s the Mad Catz Xbox 360 Arcade GameStick. I’ve been cursing at my standard Xbox 360 controller over the last few weeks as I’ve attempted to play games like Galaga and Ms. Pac Man. While I love the standard controller when it comes to games like Call of Duty or Gears of War, they pretty much suck for old school games like Pac Man. Hopefully this is where the Mad Catz controller will come into play. I nearly purchased it today at BestBuy but I decided to see how much the controller was online. It looks like I’ll just go back to BestBuy and pick up the controller after all.

In case you’re curious of the specs, the Mad Catz Xbox 360 Arcade GameStick features:

  • Full height joystick
  • 360 degree spinner control
  • Includes three Xbox Live Arcade games – Frogger, Timepilot, and Astropop
  • Free Xbox Live Gold Trial membership
  • PC USB Compatible too
