Thanks donkey and Toonces. Wish I saw the Amazon link earlier, then Dark Souls would have been a gift...anyway shopping for a controller now. Probably going to go fancy and get wireless.

Gus just spend the money and get a Xbox 360 controller for your PC.  Something like this http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Xbox-Wireless-Controller-Windows/dp/B004QRKWKQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1356824730&sr=8-1&keywords=xbox+360+controller+pc  I have the white colored version and after having tried several others the Xbox 360 controller is the best one.

Agreed...I use this and works great.  Except I use the wired version since I game right next to my pc.

[Arctic Blast]

Yeah, if you don't need much distance between yourself and the computer just walk in to the console area and grab a wired 360 controller. Plugs in to any USB port and you're good to go.

[donkey_roxor]

I second (third?) the wired controller, if you don't have to be very far from the PC.

[Bison]

I have a wireless.  I like to kick back and put my feet up on my desk and not worry about cable tangle.

[Huw the Poo]

I prefer wired because if a leprechaun happens to pass by you can garotte the little bastard.

I bought Avernum and have an hour or two into it right now. Seems to be standard fare.  Looking at Conquest Of Elysium.  If you get it, and some time with it, post your impressions

I have a dog.  A big dog who eats little rainbow chasers.
