Default Keep my old game controllers?

I have an old thrustmaster gamepad from a few years back and a MS Force feedback JS. Just wondering if its worth keeping them. The only current games i plan on playing will be Batman AA and Mechwarrior when it comes out.

They should work with those games. If they feel comfortable to you, keep 'em.

yup. if you have to there's always converters/adapters/gender changers available if the port you need isn't there.

plus even at worst case, the OS typically just says it's a basic "HID" (Human Interface Device) which you can then set up as whatever you want as far as # of buttons and basic number of axes. So it'll still work in games too
