I don't know about 'Real PC Gamers' but some games are just designed and work better with a Game Pad. This includes Racing Games, Platformers and Open World Driving Games (such as GTA and Mafia).

What gets me know is Tactical Shooters that encourage you to use a game pad as the main choice of control (I'm looking at you Operation Flashpoint - Dragon Rising)

At the end of the day I guess you Play with what ever suits you. Me I would also use a game pad to play Mafia but never to play a FPS

Enjoyed - Tomb Raider: Anniversary Couple a months back ,Though probably more puzzle than action. Maybe one for a steam sale day.

Hi everyone,

I've been wanting to read PDF files on my PSP during lunch and so found an excellent article on the web article on the web on how to convert a PDF into individual png image files - http://www.cosky.com/reading_pdf_files_on_a_psp.

The problem is I have been uploading the files onto the psp only for it to complain about the file being up supported data. I think its because the files are too large but can not find what the file restrictions are. jpg files seem to be 2000 x 1800 but does anyone know this info for png files?

I think its got more to do with the big fat cheque Microsoft are giving the developer for Xbox exclusivity.

Like most multiplayer games it depends on whether your friends are paying it. If this is the case it may be worth picking up for both the multiplayer and the COOP missions.

Personally I have given it a miss. The main reason being how the game has designed to be unbalanced rewarding players who have a played it for longer by giving them better weapons and perks. Sorry but I do not wish to level grind to achieve success.

XBox controller is good for lazy PC ports from XBox :)

Mmm.. This really should be in the hardware forum.

However I can vouch for theMicrosoft LifeChat LX-3000 Headset. For the money they are a good USB Headset.

The sound quality is good and there are well made. My only complaints would be the cable length (6ft it to short IMO) and the design does heat up the ears after excessive use.

As for the other sorry I can not help you but like as said the Microsoft ones offer pretty good value.

Prey Mystery solved -

On Steam :-

'Our sale on Prey was so popular we ran out of keys!! If we can get more, we'll try to bring this deal back. In the meantime, 2K Games has added Bioshock to the set of daily deals on Steam, at 75% OFF today only. Happy holidays!'

Just as my wallet thought it was safe to go out again.

Thanks for Heads up
