PostPosted: Mon, 1st Jan 2007 21:43    Post subject: Gamepad supported games! -=[Updated 8/26/2012]=-
I've spent 4+ years keeping this thread updated on another forum, figured I'd bring it over here. Some games people just like playing with a gamepad better.

Games I test are with an xbox360 wired gamepad. Wireless xbox360 gamepads using the receiver don't work in some games for whatever reason.

Also if looking for a game, use ctrl+f to find your game easier

Gamepad Software

Xpadder lets you map keyboard mouse movements to any pc game
XBOX360 Controller Emulator v3.0 will add more controller support for G4W

If you haven't played Psychonauts try it out. It's a fun console style platformer but it was actually ported properly, very fun with a gamepad or a keyboard.

http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/gaming/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=090&active_tab=systemRequirements

seems it's already out? might just need to d/l the drivers for it and it might work. I dont know anyone around here that I can borrow their controller to test it.

@ike_pl just the first one, those kinda games annoy me with the shitty aiming system and lack of a decent camera.

Currently playing Top Spin 2, thats not a bad gamepad game.
Basically any sports game is good with a pad.
Phantasy Star Universe is a recentish RPG thats for pads.
Cordless RumblePad 2 linked in 1 of posts above is an awesome piece of machinery btw, 100% recomended.

If memory serves me correctly there was a sex scene/Mini game thing which was cut out.I'm not really 100% sure though so it would be nice if someone could correct me.

That's criminal! Fahrenheit was one of the best adventure games I've ever played - I'm very much looking forward to Quantic Dreams next project: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_Rain

I used a PS2 pad to play Fahrenheit, it's a must due to the games consoley nature.

You still need the receiver for wireless controllers but you can use your wired 360 controllers with your PC if you download the drivers.

You're right Fahrenheit is the uncensored one.

From Wikipedia:
"The original title of Fahrenheit was changed to Indigo Prophecy in the United States. The change was made to avoid confusion with the film Fahrenheit 9/11. Besides the name change, it is significant to note that the US version of the game has also been edited. Scenes depicting sex (one of which is interactive) and other "adult content" were removed"

Smile

btw, this game is amazing
