Xbox 360 or Xbox One remote are the best in my opinion.

Xbox controllers are the easiest to use on PC but you can use the PS3/4 controllers but it's a little more complicated.

I've got to agree with the guys saying to use the Xbox 360 controller. I use it for quite a few games and it works perfectly. Also, it's about £30 for the controller and an adapter. The controller can be used on any adapter and any Xbox 360 console effortlessly - ie. no setting up different configs for different games, etc.

I use the cronusmax adapter lets me use my wiiu pro controller on the PC and my PS3 for 3d games. For 2d games I use a adapter to plug my snes controller into the cronusmax and it shows up as a 360 pad on the PC.

The best one is Xbox 360 controller. If you can't buy that, get something from Logitech! . They're good in making 'em too!

My favourite is the XBox One controller. Very comfortable and works great.

I swear by Logitech F710. Wireless and works as easily as X360 controller (Xinput = no drivers needed) but also has a switch for DirectInput for older games. It uses the DualShock layout instead of X360, but the icons/labels are X360. The directional pad is far superior than that of X360 controller; it has a nice mechanical feeling to it.

The XBOX360 controller is rock solid and works great. It´s just plug and play since it has got full Microsoft support. Sure there are others out there (like Logitech) that work great but to me the X360 is awesome.
