Darksiders

Darksiders is an excelent game, that needs a joypad to fully enjoy. You would need to install the xbox 360 joypad emulation in order to get it working with logitech Rumblepad 2 or the Dual Action Gamepad.

Download the file

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

and copy the files into the installed directory, :

\Program Files\Darksiders\

dinput8.dll
xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll

I've heard a lot of good about this game, so now let's see if it lives up it.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction

It'll be fun to see if this game can compete with the entertainment of Just Cause II from Square. This is rated "M" for a mature teen audience, Now let's find out how to get playing with a pad, this game will need the xbox 360 emulation patch in the following directory in order to work with logitech rumblepad 2 / dual action game pads.

Program Files\Ubisoft\Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction\src\system\

copy the files of x360ce vibmod 3.1.4.0 :

x360ce.ini
xinput1_3.dll
XInputTest.exe

Dont forget, you need to set "Use Controller" in the setup.

Finally with a great pc, with the powerfull gfx card, you can enjoy this beyond anything a xbox 360 can push out. I'll be playing this one in the late nights for the next week.

Edit: note one big pain with Ubisoft's DRM protection, is that you need a constant internet connection, and this caused a bit of a problem for me, when my internet was down, and you just want to play. I'm not a big fan of this "online" solution, as many of people I know, don't have a internet connection. Suddenly they need one just to play games? It makes no sense. I do hope they find a better solution, don't think everyone are constantly connected, and online when and where they play games. It's a bit sad, I hear from many people that stay away from buying any software / games, that require being online. One of their arguments is that what if I play these games a few years from now, when for example the game provider exists no longer? Are the servers still there?

Grand Theft Auto IV: Episodes from Liberty City

Finally I get my hands on this release, even if my current computer quite don't perform to well with this game, it's still worth while. It works fine with the logitech rumblepad 2 / dual action game pads. Just go to controller setup, and set direct input to on.

This game includes two stories, and hopefully it'll be as great as the previous versions.
