    I was wondering if the XBOX 360 controller works with bioshock. I have the wireless adapter for my pc I'm just curious if the game itself supports it. Thanx for any help.

    Since it's part of games for windows, and there is an xbox version of the game I'm quite sure it does.

    That was my logic too, I just wanted to find out for sure or not.

    I don't think it does because I used to have it for windows when I had a vaio and never saw it as an option in the menus. Of course it never worked ( beyond the first cinema ) with the 8600gt drivers that were available at the time, so I took it back and bought the 360 version. I would make sure that it works from someone who has firsthand experience with it before buying it. COD4 is on pc and xbox and the controller does not work with the pc version.

    99.9% sure it does - remember seeing it in my instruction manual.

    Aside from the pure ability to aim, this is one of the very few FPS-style games I preferred playing on the XBOX360. The controller made more sense for what I was trying to do.
