So I don't have a 360 but I was thinking about getting a 360 controller to play PC games with. What are your experiences with this? Is it easy to set-up? Do you prefer it over using a Keyboard and Mouse?

From what I hear, all you have to do is plug it in, and it'll automatically find the right drivers for it, someone correct me if i'm wrong. I was also thinking about buying a controller for games like Devil May Cry 4(although the pc controls were alright in the demo), Street Fighter 4, and driving games.

Its a excellent controller, and reletively easy to set up, but I definitely prefer keyboard and mouse when it comes to pc games. It just feels really strange to play a pc game with it, its not made for it.

If you have XP, you'll need to download drivers from MS's site. If you have Vista, they're built in.

It's a good quality controller, but not every game supports controllers.

Its only good for racing, fighting and sports games. If you dont play those kind of games, then stick to M&K. By the way, I have one and it works like a charm (used it with FIFA 07, NFS Most Wanted, NFS Carbon and TOCA Race 3).
