Have you played a game on your laptop with a game controller?

if so what game?


Well my Dell laptop has 4 USB ports and well I want to try playing a game on my lappy with a game controller.Have you played a game on your laptop with a game controller?
While I don't own a laptop, I have played games on a computer with a game controller.





I have recently been playing Halo with an Xbox 360 controller. It works wonderfully. You should try it! Funny that I have that controller and no Xbox 360.





The controller requires drivers that can be downloaded from Microsoft's website. If you already have the controller, you still might want to consider checking this link out, as I have noticed that the drivers have been updated.





Windows XP SP1+ (32 bit)

Windows XP (64 bit)

Windows Vista (32 bit)

You would only have the 64 bit Vista if you have Ultimate, and your system properties states it.





My controller has been working fantastically. As far as I know, Halo and Halo 2 for PC are the only controller games I know of. You might want to explore a little bit.





I don't see any reason why the controller wouldn't work for your laptop.Have you played a game on your laptop with a game controller?
plug in the game controler to one of the 4 usb ports and then install the driver on the CD included (if it came with one)
yes, should plug n' play
