I probably should've asked this before i bought and downloaded it off steam but it was kind of a spur of the moment deal...ANYWAY can i use my xbox controller to play this game cause i hate using keyboards and mouses to play FPSs and i really like TF2 but the 360 version has to pay for the updates which is ridiculous especially when valve wanted to give them away for free so.

you can.

that was easy thanks guy. someone can lock or move or eat this thread now...

i r the mighty kirk, im not no guy!

Yes, but you need to buy like one of those 40$ pc-360 controller dongles from Microsoft

Unless you use the wired ones of course

Can you use it for all fps games or? o.O I'll maybe try it out sometime then (got TF2 too so I can always try it with that then I guess)

I think you'll be at a major disadvantage to people who are using a mouse+ keyboard, since you can't aim as good as them.

I aim better and faster with a joystick...its not like a play a sniper anyway most of the classes i choose have shotguns lol

why just why, fps noob

steam = pc only (imo and even they think they should remain pc based)

takes more skill to aim with a joystick than it does to play point and click...nab

I wanted to play RE4 with my xbox 360 wired controller, how did you do it?

You just plug it in?

way to lie to me guys....they're not compatible i have to download this thing and do some stuff and program in some shit and omg i might just buy the console version so i don;t have to go through any of that

You should have expected to have to download some sort of plugin for it lol

I didn't have to for Bioshock....granted that was a console to PC port but still...

this just goes to show the console tards from the pc gamers, pc gaming is at a higher level to console just go stay with your xbox xD

i got it to work, had to go into some advance keyboard options and type in a config....kinda simple really

pc gaming is at a lower lvl cus u ppl require the use of a mouse to aim well.

PC vs Console is a neverending arguement. It is a matter of preference.

this man is right.

Well this is the first time I've heard someone say FPS with controllers is better for him. But whatever works for you.
I can really respect people who have mouse like aim on controllers, it's pretty sick.

lol CoD4 on 360 is the joke of "competitive" gaming.

I prefer a controller too for FPS

I wish I could have a mouse/keyboard for the 360, but I guess it is just not meant to be.

Just get your ass on a pc then

CoD4 on the 360 is like Low-Mid settings on PC CoD4

People that have been playing COD4 on control pad since it came out have built up the aiming competency of most pc gamers. It's a different interface, and has a huge learning curve because most of us have been gaming with mice, but it's definitely achievable to have the same aiming ability on control pad.

But for these people that have been playing hours every day for years, they not only have mouse aim with a control pad, but aim assist. It's ridiculous.

Following videos are on xbox

Same guy in both videos.
