Dreamkiller

Also released this week was Dreamkiller, It as well available only for the xbox 360, so I got some doubts on the quality of the game, and if I should check it out or not. It also got quite a low score on popularity already.

More to follow...

Resident Evil 5

Finally it's here for the PC, I do hope the controller support is working fine.

Let ya know when I get it tested out. As my controller broke down, before I got a chance to try this one out. Talk about bad luck. Now I gotta wait until I get it replaced. Only a few months old, I'm getting less and less confident in Logitech, same stuff happened to a few of my keyboards as well (newer ones, while the old stuff just keep ticking).

1. If you haven't you should modify the registry to alter the name of your controller to say "XBOX 360 Controller for Windows".

Then download :

Extract and copy the following files into the game directory :

xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll

This is a truly great game, will be playing this one to the end. Currently I'm stuck in batman.

Darkest of Days

Despite that I previous decided to overlook this game, the pure lack of good games for the past months and that it was also released for the xbox 360 made me to give it a go.

I'm now off to give this game a try, and hope it will be worth the installation time...

No matter what I did to get the joypad working, it just would not work in game.

My first emotion to stay away from this game was right, it is horrible. My advice is to all to stay away from it. I've not seem anything worse than this for a long time. My rule usually is right that it's not released for the PS3, don't bother with getting the PC game. All good titles that are worth your time is released on all the 3 major platforms.

Raven Squad: Operation Hidden Dagger

This is a not to good, but not to bad game, some like it some don't, whats good for us is that it fully works with the xbox 360 emulation and it works perfectly.

Download :

Extract and put the files into :

Program Files/Evolved Games/Raven Squad

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

For me it's not a bad game, I'll give it a shot this weekend, and we'll see how well it will play.

Wolfenstein

After a dry month of no real good game releases for the PC, we're back with a cool game that we all been waiting for, wolfenstein. Playable out of the box with a rumble pad 2, you just need to change the controller.

But to enjoy it fully, you have to install the xbox 360 emulation and it works perfectly.

Download :

http://rapidshare.com/files/249164419/xinputemu3.0.zip

Extract and put the files into :

Program Files/Activision/Wolfenstein/SP

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

Then start the game, select controller "xbox-360...". And now you see press "A" & "B", etc... instead of just the Press [Enter], [Esc]...

This is quite a nice game, with patch 1.1 you will be able to enjoy the single player mode with save fully working.

I've not yet had a chance to fully evaluate it. I hope there is some way to turn of the blood & gore. :) So far I give it easily an 8.0.

Crysis

This is a great game. Put the files in the :

Electronic Arts/Crytek/Crysis/Bin32/

xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll

And it works fine just like crysis warhead.

Released : 11 November 2007

Crysis WARHEAD

Wow, this is the first game, I've played all to the end with my logitech rumblepad 2. And it was a great pleasure. It runs really well on my HD4670, with some settings tweaked.

Place the files in :

Program Files/Electronic Arts/Crytek/Crysis WARHEAD/Bin32

xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll

One of the best games I've played this year. I'm going for a second run.

Released : 17 September 2008
