Gamepad on a PC

I’m a gamepad-hater and I always wondered how console players can have something like that as a controller. Now I got one that very much looks like a PS3 gamepad from Speedlink (Striker ²). Yesterday I tried a few games on it and I have to say that the PC version of Ghostbusters: The Videogame is much more fun with the gamepad. Nearly unplayable is Collin McRae Dirt 2… although there is a vibration effect depending on the road you are on the control is inaccurate (comparable to the keyboard).

Need to check Streetfighter IV, Batman Arkham Asylum and Star Wars Force Unleashed with the gamepad.
