Controller

Friday, 29 August 2008


Its time I told you about a guilty pleasure of mine. I first picked up Trackmania nations [the free one], about 3 months ago, when the paid version released, and was impressed with the simplicity, and the fact that, unlike most racing games i didnt have to go round the tracks very often, and races were often finished in under a minute.

After a successful week or two playing it, it had on my PC. Now, while i'm downloading the Dungeons and dragons online client, I got bored, and had an idea. Plugging my Wired 360 controller into the laptop, I was able to play trackmania without even changing any settings. A was accelerate, and turning was identical to if i was playing a Console game. A legend was born. I was racing far better and the game was alot more fun to play, call it the future of PC games if you will, I'm considering reinstalling Swat 4 and testing that out.

So, I put the question to you guys, Any of you used a Wired 360 controller to play a PC game? How'd it go?
