Ive recently discovered the joys of blasting hordes of zombies with a 360 controller on my pc in house of the dead 3, i was just wondering if anyone knew of any other games like this e.g. resident evil survivor that are on the pc? and suggestions would be thankeed.

It's bloody scary is what it is.

Are you on about zombie games or Op Wolf style shooters?

I think I played that, once. It was awful. I have a copy of the original House of the Dead, though. I haven't ever opened it though.

I have typing of the dead, somewhere.
I'm chuffing awful at it.

I decree that this is information that you need to know.

I have typing of the dead. I find it to be cocking ace.

Terribly programed. I mean *terribly*. There is no exit button, for example (that I could find, anyway). I had to exit every time using ctrl-alt-del.

But still, just for originality and plain bonkers fun, its worth a try.

(its also easily obtainable off the floor, being small and utterly devoid of copy protection)

Actually I think he's using a 360 controller on his PC, it's USB and fully compatible with windows. Also Silent Hill is more like Resident Evil I believe, never played it though.

For obvious reasons (lack of gun hardware) HOTD type games are thin on the ground on PCs. I used to love L.A. Machineguns: Rage Of The Machines in the arcade but I don't imagine it would be as much fun at home without the huge, RIS inducing machine gun peripheral.

This. To make the games a challenge with a mouse, you need a hell of a lot more targets than they come with as standard.

I presume you have checked out the 5punk arcade though? Theres plenty of pointy-shooty games in there, specifically designed to be challenging with a mouse.

Plus they are free.
