Think pritty much all new games support 360 pad, certainly all games for windows games.

This.

It was one of the requirements for the GFW brand that were a good idea (along with 64-bit compatibility). Remember that time when it seemed that Microsoft actually wanted PC gaming to succeed?

Shame the developers of bioshock 2 and COD World at War took no notice of this...

Bioshock 2 still till this day doesn't work with a Xbox360 pad. COD 5 world at war had Xbox360 support on the back of the box, guess what.?? didn't work until patch 1.6 and you need to enable it via the console and it works for Single Player only... MP mode, back to WSAD, but then FPS games with a controller online you'd be creamed anyhow..!!

Not all GFWL have native xbox360 pad support. The total war games are GFWL and they don't support the pad, and erm wouldn't be a good idea anyhow..

Sorry, I should have made it clearer. It WAS a requirement but, as you rightly point out, not any more. I think it was RTSs wanting the GFW branding, but not the gamepad support, that forced tham to make the change.
