I've heard from several sources that on the PC, this game is best enjoyed when using a gamepad. 2 questions:

do you all find this to be true?

if so, recommend any good gamepads?

Yes, the keyboard is mega annoying to play on. I find the joystick alot more enjoyable.
I use a PS1 Analog stick, and soon prolly a Xbox 360 controller.

I personally recommend the wired Xbox360 controller. Gamepads I usually buy are cheap and never work the way I want them to. Spend a little more and get a controller you can be proud of! =)

That officially settles it then. Nearly everyone recommends that 360 controller. Thanks you two

Hey guys, in addition, what stores sell them?

And this may be a nubstick question, but what's a gamepad? XD

A gamepad is a controller lol. And I see them in Gamestop, EBgame, etc etc...just check your local shopping area or mall for one.

This is what I'm getting.

Copy of the X-Box 360 controller (very comfortable, even though I don't own a 360) and it has fans in it. I had an older controller that had fans in it. I also have a mouse that has a fan in it. Very comfortable option that will spoil you forever hehe.

The thing i hate hate hate about Xbox the most is the controllers - they were just too big, but the one I found at Gamestop was small and almost like the gamecube controller (which i was just about to get a GC USB adaptor).
