I believe that the mouse and keyboard works better for RE5 and Lost Planet. DMC4 is definitely a controller-based game.

its personal preference for re5 and lost planet i prefer the mouse and keyboard but many people prefer to play 3rd person shooters with a controller for some reason. For DMC4 controller is absolutely the better controller method.

I was planning to purchase the 360 controller, but it's price is around $39.99. I just don't know if it's worth to purchase this one.

Buy the cheapest wired 360 controller you can find. And yes it's worth it imo.

All of them support a 360 controller. DMC4 is possible to play with a keyboard but only if you have nimble fingers! =D

Only game that I found to be better with an Xbox controller is Dead Space, because they failed on the port, control-wise.

Do RE5 and SF4 let you able to play with XBOX gamers? And are there a lot of PC gamers that play it online daily?

It's not personal preference for Lost Planet. Lost Planet's non-Keyboard and mouse controls were baaaaaaaaaaad and weird.

no, you will not beable to play with xbox players, but I had no problem finding games in RE5, despite it being a 2 player co-op game. SF4 I have no idea, but i heard the community is pretty massive.

edit: also, for SF4, do not use a normal controller. get a xbox 360 Fightstick TE Slim. it works better and allows you to do more advanced techniques such as Chun li's Drop EX Spinning bird combo. (jump, Target combo, standing Fierce kick, EX Spinning Bird, EX Spinning Bird, Ultra one)

Yes a 360 controller is well worth the purchase for those games especially since it some games its the only supported controller and in most new games that have gamepad support it comes pre-configured for the 360 controller.

I beat even dmc 3 with a keyboard. No problems at all. A side note to the tc. Re5 does not have lasersight aiming with keyboard and mouse, it has a crosshair, if you want the lasersight then use a gamepad. There is also a laser mod but its kinda ehm, shoddy. I wouldnt reccomend it.

JangoWuzHere

All first person shotters and third person shotters are best played on the pc with keyboard and mouse! Evryone knows it! I also beat DMC4 on the pc with keyboard because while i have 360 controler i dont like playing on pc with that. The bad thing about DMC4 is that it dosent support mouse. It would have been a lort easier if it suported mouse too! What fist person/third person shotters are you looking forward for the pc? I am looking forward too:

TPS:

Front Mission Evolved

Mafia 2

Lost Planet 2

Dead Space 2

Kane&Lynch 2

Scivelation

Max Payne 3

Spec ops the line

Alien Breed

Mechwarrior

Underwater wars

FPS:

DOOM 4

Singularity

Homefront

Brink

Bulletstorm

I hear that alot, but can't say I experienced it, Mouse camera movement was as normal until you aimed, then it slowed down to controller speed, which tbh I actually liked. Gave it a little bit of realism but most importantly, made the fighting a little more tense n scary.
