Just got an XBOX controller for f-day.

Curious what games you prefer to use yours for. I wanted one to play the Batman series, Darksiders, and try out a few others.

Any suggestions on what you like?

Only played Skyrim a little with Keyboard and Mouse and in my opinion it's better, Easier to navigate inventory, Combat is easier as well as the fact you can get some great mods for the Elder Scrolls series (Skyrim in particular to expand the game once you've put 400+ hours in to finish it :3)

I prefer a gamepad for Skyrim. I have friends who cry when I tell them that though.

Pretty much every single platformer, fighting game, TPS, FPS, RPG that lets me use it and does not require accuracy to the pixel ;)

I'd assume a controller is good for most platformers, 3rd person adventure/action games, and obviously fighting and racing games. I would never consider using a controller for a shooter (either 1st or 3rd person).

Basically every platformer (including Awesomenauts), sports games, driving games (GRID, Dirt 3), Audiosurg, Beat Hazard, LEGO games. I have tried some FPS games too - if you want to have a good laugh you should try it. It's fun when you play Battlefield (or COD) multiplayer and own people while playing on PC with controller.:D

-1 for Just Cause 2.. Just tried it. quit after an hour.. mouse + keyboard is just much faster.. aiming on controller is shit.. especially stupid in this game where you have to aim fast when you are falling for example and need to hook to something..
