Put mine here for £75 and a couple of people wanted to split. Wasn't worth the hassle so I just looked to see what I could get for it. The cash price is crap at Game etc, but the trade in one seemed worthwhile when I could then get Steam vouchers etc.
Haven't used the link yet - was a bit of an impulse buy but will report back in a few weeks once I get around to it.
The controller is promising though. It'll take a little getting used to but you can configure it differently for each game (/use uploaded settings from the Steam community).
So far have played
Rocket League - no problems, I expect it'd be just the same as using an xbox controller.
Xcom - works surprisingly well with using one of the touchpads as a trackball and having the buttons/triggers/paddles as actions - enough to not need the keyboard or mouse at all.
Shadowrun - it's a mouse/keyboard RPG - and it works fine with the pad.
At the moment I'm trying to get 30mins turbo in each morning - nothing too OTT just light/medium spinning/active recovery etc. - and the steam controller looks like it'll let me play mouse games while I'm on it.
Still only a few uses of it, but promising certainly (and the thumb touch/trackpad thing is quick to get used to)
