    I bought a generic USB controller and for some reason, P.o.P. is not detecting the controller. It did include a USB driver and I installed the drivers.

    The controllers works fine on Grid, Assassins Creed and Legos Batman.

    But for some reason, not with P.o.P... On the option menu, I do see a selection for Xbox controller.. So, is this game only compatible with a Xbox360 controller?

    I looked for one on newegg but the controller, plus shipping is about $40.. Almost as much as a new game...
