    Hi there

    I'm looking at buying MotoGP 07 for the PC, but I know that previous versions would only work with certain specific gamepads.

    I intend on using my Xbox 360 pad so can anyone tell me if the game supports the 360 controller?

    Thanks in advance for any advice/help :)

    I don't know if it support that controller I'd say try it and see,have you tried using the keyboard ? It's pretty straight forward to use. The last version I've is 06 so I'm sure its change since then, BTW where did you get 07 for PC ??

    It's all over the place - I just googled for it and I found it for £24ish here and there.

    Anyway I haven't bought it yet but a comment on Amazon.co.uk I saw after posting this says it does support the 360 gamepad so I'm going to give it a go.

    But if anyone knows for sure if it will or wont work then you advice would be appreciated :)

    Ok so I got the game today.

    Plugged in my Xbox 360 controller, went to play the game and found the steering is terrible, and because I'm running it under vista I can't use anything other than the M$ Xbox 360 controller.

    The steering is hyper sensitive and just keeps oversteering, I can't do anything about it as there are no config settings for the controller in Vista because vista doesn't allow the games config util to run and you can only use the M$ Xbox 360 controller, apart from the keyboard which is even worse...

    Overall I'm not at all happy, luckily I'm planning on dual booting my laptop with XP so I might get some XBCD drivers and be able to use my 360 controller on the settings I want...
