(Spork) Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 5 $ new could not pass it up . so im asking what games are worth playing on the pc with the controller ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiallG Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 I find it best for racing games like GRID, NFS etc. However loads of games like Crysis, Ninja Blade, Gears of War, Devil May Cry etc work perfect as well. Most 'Games for Windows' games are compatible: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Games..._Windows_titles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donkey88 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Some games will natively pick up the Xbox 360 controller and will automatically use the console button mappings. Burnout Paradise does this and is quite good fun, and if you can get the PC version of Mirror's Edge cheap it's great while it lasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceBreakerG Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Depends on what you're looking for. Every 360 port I've played on the PC I've used my 360 controller (including Borderlands). I've gotten so used to using a controller, I seriously doubt I'd be "better" with a mouse and keyboard. Plus using the controller lets me sit a little further back too.

Flash Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Definitely play Batman Arkham Asylum , the 360 controller works like a charm in that game. I use my controller in that game since it doesn't really require the precision of a mouse like in FPS games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoneyardBrew Member Posted December 26, 2009 Member Share Posted December 26, 2009 Games like Grand Theft Auto 4 aren't compatible with many controllers, so the 360 controller is completely necessary. I'm assuming racing games are excellent with it too. Anyone know where I can get a wired 360 controller really cheap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Majesticmerc MVC Posted December 26, 2009 MVC Share Posted December 26, 2009 Most XBox 360 ports work pretty well with the XBox Controller. Most "Games For Windows" games work well with it too. The three games I use the XBox controller for: GTA 4 Prototype Braid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raa Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Don't mind if I ask where you snagged the controller from for that price? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solardog Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 360 controller works well with most racers on the pc, but is horrible and just a sluggish mess with any types of shooters. You really see the difference between the mouse/keyboard and a controller in these situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WastedJoker Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I am a long-time console gamer who recently switched to pc - much prefer gamepad for all game types (except RPG/RTS, of course). I used to use mouse/kb loads a couple of years ago when I played Battlefield 2 but I seem to have lost the "knack" *l* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
