How is the D-pad? Xbox 360 Controller

I just bought one this afternoon. I'll mainly use it to play Pro-Evo, but I mucked about with it a bit this evening to get the "feel" of it.

It seems a decent controller - nice weight and feels sturdy. Both the analogue sticks and the D-pad seems responsive without being overly twitchy (if you know what I mean). Very little axis flicker in the Windows game controller applet too.

HOWEVER, the packaging is a right pig to get into - there is no way you'll be able to repackage it and take it back to the shop if you decide you don't like it (I had to shred the packaging to get into it). I recommend you find a store with a demo box to try out the controller and see if you like it.
