Currently plugging a 360 controller to my pc and enjoying Ducktales Remastered and wondered what other fun i could have with some racing or platformers on pc with a pad ?

My rig is 3.2ghz q6600 and 768mb 8800gtx.

Check out the original Grid. It was going cheap last time I saw. There isn't any multiplayer for it though (they shut it down), but you can use a 3rd party software to solve that.

Ridge Racer Unbounded is really good with a pad and runs and looks good in PC.

There's also Burnout Paradise.

Mark of the Ninja is great platform/stealth game.

Rayman Origins is worth considering and I really enjoyed Clonning Clive.

Alice: Madness Returns is a wicked little dark platform game,

Burnout Paradise is great. I've put so many hours into it!

Super Meat Boy is an excellent platformer

it can get pretty tough at times, but it's oh so very rewarding.

It's old but if you haven't played it yet it's well worth it - Psychonauts. The PC isn't really known for it's platform games but this is a real gem, so much fun, great humour and hours of gameplay.

I'd go for Spelunky, just come out recently on Steam.

Brilliant little platformer and endlessly frustrating! But in a good way...

+1 played at a mates house and loved it, not bought it as I've a feeling I'd waste far too many hours on it.. I've got other plans (in other games) for those hours
