I played the whole thing with a controller...AC 2 as well. So be assured it's definitely supported.

You're doing something wrong on your end. The game supports the 360 controller.

AC1 supported the 360 controller for me out of the box, I would assume Brotherhood would support it as well...- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.
- Need to change it in the options.

What is love? Baby, don't hurt me. Don't hurt me. No more.
I play AC1 with a controller well enough. Mine seems to have an issue with one of the shoulder buttons not registering, so I had to remap some controls and it's now slightly different than the default x360 control scheme, but I think that's an issue with my controller. It's not an official microsoft controller, and it usually works fine, but that same shoulder button has decided not to work with a couple games.

Not sure about brotherhood but if you are using a wireless controller then AC2 is compeltely broken, if you are using a wired controller then it should work. THe bindings just do not work properly on AC2 with a wireless controller, you need to download emulators to manually bind controller keys. They might not have fixed the support in brotherhood im not sure

Thanks for the replies, not sure what was going on before but it works now, the constant 60FPS makes it a better experience than the console versions, cant wait for AC3 on PC can't say im a fan of the forced Uplay **** though.....
