Grid

Recommded me some please

i was thinking of tomb raider? which one is the lastest?

GolfBryan · 8 Feb 2009 at 17:48

Grand Theft Auto, Need for Speed, and driving game works well.

Burnout Paradise and Devil May Cry 4.

Prince of Persia.

Burnout Paradise maps it auto and changes icons to the last input pressed on the fly, quite useful.

Any of the Console-to-PC ported games from the last couple years should easily be suitable with the 360 gamepad. Few examples,

Devil May Cry 4
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition/Colonies Edition
Grand Theft Auto IV
Need for Speed series
Splinter Cell series
Tomb Raider series, especially Legend, Anniversary. Underworld is the latest one.

ringed work nicely with 360 pad

Crysis and Fallout work stress free with 360 pad? Might get one, been trying to play some games with a Ps2 pad + usb converter, Grid menus dont work, nor does many others, need to setup everything...

Rybo89 · 8 Feb 2009 at 19:43

both work perfectly with the 360 pad, both already mapped for the 360 pad aswell!

iamTakeo · 8 Feb 2009 at 19:52

Should I go for wired or wireless 360 pad?

Rybo89 · 8 Feb 2009 at 19:57

either really, depends if you like wires or not

Frapple · 8 Feb 2009 at 19:59

Either, wireless requires small adapter for £5-10, wired doesn't.

Already had a couple of pads for 360, so just bought the adapter and away I went.

Works well with Mirror's Edge, Saints Row 2, Bully ..

As for ones i'd recommend.. GTA, GTA3:SA, Devil May Cry 4. Burnout Paradise is alright too, playing that now

R34pz · 9 Feb 2009 at 03:47

Bioshock is surprisingly great on 360 pad too, I highly recommend it.

snowdog · 9 Feb 2009 at 03:58

Devil May Cry 4
Tomb Raider Underworld
Assassins Creed
Perhaps Mirror's edge, but personally I think it's terrible to play on a pad.
Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved
Sega Rally Revo
Prince of Persia

Don't forget Dead Space.

Yulaw · 9 Feb 2009 at 08:05

Devil may cry 3 if you can get it to work

smogsy · 9 Feb 2009 at 08:24

i bought XBox 360 pad wired (to lazy to change batteries :/)
Tomb Raider Underworld
GRid
Rollercoaster tycoon 2 (not for pad)
Prey (not for bad)

going to look into your suggestions

wheelman should be a good game to on pc

ali825 · 9 Feb 2009 at 09:10

i got the wireless, very much worth it, nice not to have to worrie about a wire over the desk, just less mess, and only for a little extra

zytok · 9 Feb 2009 at 10:48

just as a quick note, the NFS series are not fully compatible with the 360 pad as they do not feature rumble support. Don't believe even Undercover has rumble support though I didn't play it long enough to test it fully.

Another vastly underrated (imo) game that works perfectly is Overlord.....
If you like driving games, don't forget Colin McRae Dirt.
