According to this thread I have been following closely for some time. There is an upcoming future update that will give proper Gamepad support to Bioshock 2.

Indeed I tried playing it with KB + M but having played mostly on consoles most of my gaming life I just can't play it. When the update becomes live I will definitely dive in.

It's the other way around for me. I have trouble using controllers for shooter games.

Why would I want to play a FPS with gamepad? Way too little way too late :P

Well the option is there for those who are used to playing with controllers such as myself.

yeah why not? A lot of people prefer to play games with a controller, myself included. I cannot stand playing FPS games with a mouse and keyboard. I just do not enjoy it and get sick of people that like to spew forth their ideas that it is the only way to play an FPS. WRONG! We are talking about a single player FPS where precision doesn't mean jack. SO yes, gamepad support for an FPS PC port.

Well i've seen all kinds of weird and disturbing shit on the internet but this is the first thing that left me utterly speechless. It's like i opened a portal to alternate universe where you can write anything you want as long as it's the complete opposite of common sense

Actually, while Bioshock 2 has reasonably fast paced combat, there's only very basic hitboxes and projectile physics and short engagement ranges (i.e. your targets are big, easy to hit, and your guns are simple to use). So compared to games like UT 2004, Tribes, or Shootmania where playing with a gamepad would just be stupid, I can imagine B2 with a gamepad just fine.

Nice, gamepad support and possibly the removal of SecuROM and GFWL requirements.

Don't care about the gamepad, but if they remove SecuROM and GFWL, it gets bumped up on my wishlist. (although given the amount of humble bundles etc, I'm probably not going to get round to it until 2020)

Thanks for the info. I like playing primarily single player games with controllers through Big Picture mode (though BP mode is having its only problems right now).

Nice. If they remove GFWL/Securom and put Minervas Den on Steam... That would be awesome!
