    I just hope they make an upgraded Stram Controller.

    I bought it when it came out. Been using it ever since. Still holds up and legit feels so great in your hands. I really have no idea what I will do the day mime breaks.

    That’s pretty cool, I didn’t realise there were so many folks using controllers on Steam. I also absolutely love Steam Input.

    I just want a steam controller 2 that’s basically exactly the same as the steam deck input scheme!

    Steam Input is the GOAT. If I’m playing a non-Steam game with a controller, I usually set it up to launch through Steam to take advantage of it.

    59% of sessions are using Xbox controllers 26% are using PlayStation controllers 10% are on Steam Decks

    Are other controllers registering as xbox controllers are do people really use them that much?

      Xbox controllers work with windows with pretty much zero configuration. Either use USB or the appropriate receiver dongle. This probably contributes a lot to it’s popularity.

      Also the older and newer style controllers likely all just report as Xbox controllers and the wired 360 controllers are dirt cheap

        They work on some Linux distros with zero configuration as well. Mint being one of those.

        (This is through bluetooth that I’m speaking of.)

    For those using an Elite controller, Bazzite handles the back paddles nicely (on Bluetooth in the Plasma version).
