as long as you can remap the controlls and have a propper driver for your controller, i think pretty much every PC game can be remapped

Even if it doesn't, just use Joytokey to force controller support by mapping controller buttons to keyboard keys.

I use it all the time to map savestate keys in Project 64 and ePSXe to my L3 and R3 buttons. Plus the added turbo and combination key configurations are sweet. It's quite a powerful utility.

ControlMK also works very nicely. I haven't ever used Joytokey, but ControlMK allows you to map buttons to EVERYTHING...including your mouse X and Y axis.

Yeah I used ControlMK in conjunction with XBCD360 controller drivers. For some reason Windows doesn't like my right analogue stick with my 360 controller, I wonder if this will be fixed with further driver updates.

Hey is there anyway to use the control pad?Image I can get the 2 analogs to work but i cant seem to get the pad to work, it would be nice to have so you could add things like switch weapons the game i want to play is hitman 2 but i need more buttons. thanks for any help crazyrom.

Try out ControlMK, as suggested above. I've mapped every button on my Xbox joystick to some function or another with that program.
