Play WoW using your Xbox 360 Controller

Posted by Jaren as Computers, Cool Stuff, Games, Online Gaming, PC, Software, Windows

I’ve been using my Xbox 360 Controller to play every game installed on my Vista Laptop, starting from Doom3, Civ3, Oblivion, Half-life 2, Halo, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Battle for Middle Earth 2, Etc.. Even Using it on a few MMO’s like Freestyle Online, and World of Warcraft.

And the experience is great, better than the feeling of messing up my laptop keyboard, because of frustrated keypresses that leads to smashing your keyboard. Plus the neck strain because you have to be close to the monitor and keyboard at the same time.

Now for Other games I used the Pinnacle Game Profiler Software,which is free to download but costs you if you want to upgrade it. For the game, World Of Warcraft I specifically use Switchblade which is fully configured to use your Xbox 360 Controller wired or wireless to play World of Warcraft. Yippeee, its free to download, but you also have to register for xfire gaming service. But it’s still cool, what a little bit of typing mean if you can comfortably play WoW, with a great Controller right. Now the only thing that is missing are the free chips and dips.

The 3G iPhone

I’ve had 3G on my Nokia N95 enabled since I got it – which is about a month or two ago now. I was thus surprised to learn that the iPhone didn’t include this much faster way to connect to the Internet. Consequently, I wasn’t exactly surprised when Steve Jobs big announcement turned [...]
