    Just buy an usb adapter for either a ps2 or xbox controller. Theyre pretty cheap, assuming you already have one, you can get one for around 10 dollars or less.

    PS3 controllers can work with PC I believe. Might just need a driver update or something.

    i owned a logitech mx510, currently using the mx518 and some webcam. the mice they make are amazing, and i would put the mx518 above any laser mouse i have used, including the logitech g7 and razer copperhead.

    Have the mx518 mouse, great product.

    Have a logitech gamepad (controller) it's blue...don't know the model. Too lazy to check.

    Also have Logitech surround sound....keyboard.

    Oh yeah, and Logitech joystick for flying.
