PC HD Games

After a few years of HD games on the "PC", compared to the life on the consoles, I must say I do enjoy my PC more... And why that is, simply because the lifespan of consoles are too long, today you get a far out PC that you can do a bit more with between the game sessions... And for the price that is pretty equal to a PS3 / XBOX 360. And what more is that there is just enough quality games getting released for you to actually be able to enjoy and play not to get bored of it. Sure the consoles might have a few exclusive titles, and they might be very well done. But PC has got a huge market, and it's growing fast, so I see no point why 3rd party companies should continue to do exclusive titles for just one brand. The further we walk into the future, the more these consoles will become more and more like just another PC, and then what is the point... You might just stick with your PC, and keep upgrading it every now and then. I'm sure we're already at the point where the next-gen consoles (PS4 / XBX 720), can't beet the today's PC's. The wii2 then might be a whole different story, Nintendo always liked to surprise the gamers with quality features not always available from competitors.

Let's enjoy a great coming game season... Thanks to the great rumblepad 2...

LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game

LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game works perfectly with a Logitech Rumblepad 2 and the Dual Action gamepad. This is one amazing game, and i'm sure i'll enjoy it greatly.

You can however get the xbox 360 controller buttons to show by using the xbox 360 emulation for the game, the way most of us out there like to see it...

Download :

http://rapidshare.com/files/422778312/x360ce.vibmod.3.1.4.1.rar

Put the files in the installed directory as follows...

\Program Files (x86)\Disney Interactive Studios\LEGO® Pirates\

x360ce.ini
xinput1_3.dll

Now it's possible to play it the way you are used to see the buttons...

Brink

I found no good way to get Brink working with the Logitech Rumblepad 2 or Dual Action Gamepads.

I'm not a big fan of playing with mouse and keyboard, so I'll keep trying to find a solution. The game itself may attract those who like this type of game. I myself is not that much for playing this kind of game, so you better give it a go before you thinking of buying it, some magazines only game it 6.0, and that is probably where I would rate it.

Section 8: Prejudice

If you want to get Section 8: Prejudice to work with your Logitech Rumblepad2 or Dual Action gamepad, then do as we did :

Download :

http://rapidshare.com/files/343322681/xbox360cemu.v.3.0.rar

or

http://xinput.googlecode.com/files/xbox360cemu.v.3.0.rar

Extract the files :

dinput8.dll
xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll
XInputTest.exe

and copy them into folder :

\Program Files (x86)\TimeGate Studios\Section 8 Prejudice\Binaries\Win32\

Then start the game, and now the controller should work the way it is supposed to. I did enjoy the first game in the series, even if it was a bit short, so hopefully this will at least be as good.

The First Templar

To get The First Templar working with your Logitech Rumblepad 2 or Dual Action Gamepad you will have to do the following...

Download :

http://rapidshare.com/files/343322681/xbox360cemu.v.3.0.rar

or

http://xinput.googlecode.com/files/xbox360cemu.v.3.0.rar

Extract the files :

xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll

and copy them into folder :

\Program Files (x86)\Kalypso Media\The First Templar\

This will activate the rumblepad 2 / dual action gamepads as a xbox 360 controller, and you can control the game as wanted, no off to enjoy this game.
