Toy Story 3

Have I been waiting for this game, just like a kid, since I found out that it was in the making. I'm a huge fan of the toy story movies, and watch them every now and then. I'm looking forward for the 3rd in the story, and being able to play the characters in a game, now I just hope they did a good job, this should be a A++ title for kids.

The game got native joypad support, but to be sure it all works as good as possible with your rumblepad 2 or dual action game pad you need to do the following...

In the directory :

\Program Files\Disney Interactive Studios\Toy Story 3\

rename the existing : xinput1_3.dll to xinput1_3.dll.old

and copy the files of x360ce vibmod 3.1.4.0 :

x360ce.ini
xinput1_3.dll
XInputTest.exe

I'm now off to enjoy this game. First impressions is that it's a very much a kids game.

Edit: After playing this game, it's truly a game your young kids may enjoy. It got multiplayer possibilities, with split screen, they can enjoy the story with a friend. The game itself is quite well done, and if you and or your kids are toy story fans, it's worth a look and maybe a buy. It'll take a few hours to play the story, then you can mess around with the "round" up for as long as you want...

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

Ice Age works perfect with a rumble pad 2, you just need to copy the following files into the path.

Program Files/Activision/Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs(TM)/
xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll

As a lover of the previous ps2 games, I expect quite allot from this game as it is the third in the series, hope it will live up to it. So far it looks like it will live up to it, some info from the box. One thing I notice is the audio is a bit bad, but that might be adjustable, I did not tune the audio yet. I'll be on this one for a couple of hours before I get back to overlord II (my current top game).

Join Ice Age's unlikely herd of prehistoric pals for their wildest, wackiest, most exciting adventure yet! For the first time, play as six beloved Ice Age characters as they embark on a rescue mission across melting snow to the mysterious Dinosaur World - an all-new, fur-raising jungle of carnivorous plants, lush foliage and fierce dinosaurs.

Based on the highly anticipated Fox film Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, it's a rollicking ride of mammoth proportions! Revisit the humor, characters and prehistoric environments from the movie - Players relive adventures from the film and beyond with all their favorite characters - earnest but goofy Sid the Sloth, big-hearted Manny the Mammoth, courageous Diego the Saber-toothed Tiger and inadvertent troublemaker Scrat - as they all frozen Ice Age to the lush Dinosaur World.

Experience continuously changing gameplay through more than 15 levels - Every level presents new and exciting challenges as players learn and master each character's abilities in order to defeat enemies, traverse dangerous landscapes, avoid obstacles and escape from perilous situations.

Another game that only works with the xbox 360 wired controller, but thanks to this tool you can play it fully with a logitech rumble pad 2.

LEGO Indiana Jones

LEGO Indiana Jones works just fine with the controller. It's also a great game for all LEGO gaming fans.
