I just bought resident evil 4 for the PC just as a time waster, and have come to realise that the game doesnt even let you use your mouse! how stupid is that?

Does anyone know of a fix for mouse control or anything? This is pathetic, im tempted to take it back.

I found that if you play using a gamepad then it's not so bad TBH.

well i purchased test drive unlimited and res 4, however the mouse thing wont work for res4 and my PS3 controller wont work on 64 bit :banghead:

What i might do is take res4 back, swap it for another game and buy a gamepad that will work on 64bit vista. any suggestions?

Yea, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/USB-10-Key-PC...39:1|66:2|65:12|240:1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

These are awesome and only £5, I'm using mine on Vista 64 bit and it works in all games I've tried. Vibrates as well ;)
