I hate how developers do this "Xbox 360 Controller" stuff. The difference between a PC and Xbox 360 is the controls; take away the KB/M and you basically have an Xbox 360. I know the KB/M is still there, but I hate how PCs are basically being assimilated into the 360 crowd, which is disappointing. Just look at the failed attempt, known as "Games For Windows." I'm all for optional features, but if I wanted to play BiA:HH on a console, I'll be sure to do that. For all we know, the PC controls could be rushed or half-ass'ed just for the sake of its integrity as a PC game. Even though PC controls are pretty dynamic, the developer still have to put thought into the controls to make it flow smoothly otherwise you have a mess.

They recommend the 360 controller because the game was also made for that controller specifically.

And it's a microsoft product so full compatibility is Guarranteed.

The PC graphic quality will surpass the console versions.
The controller isn't the only reason why people want to play a game on a PC rather than a console.

Thats a pretty lame reason.

i agree with bullet...i just bought a highend pc. i suck at keyboard and mouse right now so a controller is a great option for me. i enjoy the better graphics with the computer but love the controller of a console. i am all screwed up right now.

Brothers in Amrs and Earned in Blood were brilliant. The amount of passion that went into them by Gearbox, who was then a young company, was incredible. The franchise just died after that which is sad. Hell's Highway just wasn't made with the same passion. And let's not talk about the cancelled BiA4, that looked so wrong on so many levels.

You Can Find A Hidden Cat That Shoots Lasers In Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway

Some Easter eggs and secrets aren’t actually that hard to find. Sometimes they are even connected to achievements or trophies in-game, making them very easy to locate. But some secrets are much harder to find and honestly make me wonder how anyone ever finds these things.

A shame current Gearbox will never make another game like this.
