Good PC Games to Play with a GamePad

[Clocker]

I bought this Gravis game pad thinking it would make playing Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell more fun to play. But, as it seems, I think that the game does not support a game pad (only KB/Mouse in the PC version).

Should I return this game pad or are there any good games I can try with it on the PC?

Thanks,
C

The Microsoft Mechwarrior games work pretty well with a joystick, but if you're going to use one, it has to have lots of programmable buttons.

Most of the EA Sports games work quite well with a gamepad, if you're into those kinds of games.

I'm using the Gravis Gamepad Pro. It's old but tried and true, and many games have built-in GP configuration support. I use it for NBA Live 2003. Since it's cheap too, there's no hesitation about buying up enough for 2 or 4 player games.

If your gamepad has dual analog sticks, you can use them to control NBA Live 2003's freestyle dribbling control.

the only game I play regularly is EA's Madden, and almost always in franchise mode. It works well with my Microsoft Sidewinder.
