Wireless game controllers?
Howdy,
I have a handy wireless Saitek P2900 Game Pad that I added to the overall package when ordering this Alienware system. My question is - what the hell games work with this? The computer recognises it fine , but it does not show in any of my games that would hypothetically use it. That was not a surprise for me as they are all 5-12 years old. Should/would this work in any newer games? Not that I have any clue what kind of newer post 2004 game I would want to buy in the first place.

Almost any game should work. Once you have the pad installed it's basically just like adding more buttons to a keyboard. When you go into control options of any game just map the keys to the button you want. Obviously it's going to suck for RTS games or anything where you really need to use your mouse to quickly grab and highlight things.
It should work with newer games better, especially multi-platform games that were designed to work with consoles.
