But now that you can actually use your t.v as your PC monitor and play on the couch with a controller.

Here's a list of all my experiences with PC controllers that worked:

@mdk Heh. I've gotten it to work with nearly everything. (quality of coomputer wise.) Xbox and PS4, Those gaming controllers do work with PC's without a hitch...So I don't know if that's anything but operator error. xP Did you install the stuff/drivers required to get it to work?

As for 'PC' controllers themselves. I have a phone application that's free and can work perfectly well as a mouse and keyboard, when I want to watch videos and lay down in bed. So I dunno about that...my friend got his PC hooked up to his t.v monitor without a hang up and he's the type of guy who isn't even that tech savvy.

I banged my head against the wall for an hour or two with a PS4 controller -- couldn't get it to bind the way I wanted, gave up, bought a PC controller. Banged my head against the wall for half an hour or so, couldn't get it to work, gave up and played with keyboard/mouse. Later, I bought a joystick, thinking "Hey, this'll be fun." It wasn't. Didn't work. And then I decided I'd had enough.

Other point of interest -- I use that phone remote app too, and that brings up another point -- if I put my PC in the living room, now I need to buy a whole nother computer for the bedroom if I wanna netflix my way to sleep every night like a heroin addict.
