When questions come up fairly frequently or cause a stir in the community, we’d like to address those here so that you get access to the help and information you need.
Controllers are an important aspect of playing many games. Across companies and titles, it seems like every game has its own preference for setting up controller usage. Some require 3rd party drivers, while many games from Aspyr Media and Feral Interactive do not, with drivers built into the game.
It can be hard to keep up with which ones do and do not need drivers, so we wanted to clear the air a little by detailing which Aspyr games have built-in controller drivers and what to do if you have problems connecting your controller to a game. The following is an excerpt from the Knowledge Base on Aspyr’s Support site, courtesy of Jason, one of Aspyr’s support leads:

WWDC 2012 brought many exciting announcements to the world of Apple products. Everyone expected an updated MacBook Pro, some even predicted a retina screen, but few were prepared for just how incredible the screen would look. It’s actually the highest resolution laptop created yet. Images, icons and everything else should look sharper than ever.
However, that’s not the end of the story. Not many applications or games support this resolution natively so developers are in a position to react to how they can support Retina on catalog products while maintaining focus on new releases, a constant juggle with evolving operating systems and new hardware. The issues faced in supporting Retina includes needed UI changes, needed resolution changes, and product performance. A side-effect of supporting Retina resolutions is that there are other consequences. There will be trade-offs with performance (depending on the game) and potentially other resolution support issues in order to support this new feature.
As with a handful of other companies, Aspyr has added retina display to some of their most popular games, and some were fortunate enough to support the resolution natively. Below are a rundown of the games and any necessary details in regards to their performance in retina resolution mode.
Bring out your flags, put some hotdogs on the grill and light up a few sparklers! In honor of the 4th of July and in celebration of all things ‘Merican this week, we bring you a list of the Top 10 most patriotic video game characters.
His latest adventure, Duke Nukem Forever, begins with ole Duke standing in front of an American flag. That alone deserves an honorable mention, but he also saved the world from aliens and all sorts of troubles multiple times. Just look at him and listen to his quotes. He’s an amalgamation of many iconic American action heroes: John Wayne, Charles Bronson, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sly Stallone, Bruce Willis and Bruce Campbell. He sounds like Dirty Harry to boot. Love him or hate him, Duke’s definitely a poster boy for the stereotypical American badass image.
Many of us older games spent plenty of time with these two Americans, armed with rifles and unlimited ammo. The original Japanese version had the two taking on a terrorist cell, but when it arrived at our shores it was changed to an evil alien entity known as Red Falcon. Mad Dog and Scorpion blasted their way through 10 areas of side-scrolling and 3D mazes on both the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and in arcades.
It was one of the few games at the time to feature cooperative gameplay. And what could be more American than taking gaming and putting it into the hands of the many instead of a single (dictator of a) player?
This guy has such an impressive resume: professional wrestler, mayor of a major metropolitan U.S. city, and most famously, a freedom fighter. When his city was overrun by the evil criminal gang/organization Mad Gear, he took to the streets with Guy and Cody to take his city back.
So let’s see, he’s done his civic duty as a public servant, fought street crime AND maintains an impressive moustache? Sounds like a Grade A American to me. Plus, this quote proves even his moustache is a patriot: “My ‘stache quivers for justice!”
While lacking in backstory and personality, Call of Duty 2‘s Bill Taylor is a one-man WWII army thanks to the skills game players everywhere. As a Corporal in the 2nd Ranger Battalion Bill helps storm the shores of Normandy on D-Day, helps in the assault of Pointe du Hoc, Hill 400 and crosses the Rhine River into enemy Germany. This guy is Real American Hero material. If Bill Taylor were real, the number of medals he’d be wearing would be enough to make a rapper jealous of his bling.
Aside from the guys in Contra, Guile of Street Fighter fame is one of my first memories of a patriot and proud American in gaming. He’s a U.S. special forces operative and his fighting stage was on a U.S. airbase. Since 1991 he’s fought warriors the world over, all in the name of justice and vengeance.
Oh, and just look at his arms…American flag tattoos on each!
The villain of the series, M. Bison killed his best friend and fellow soldier Charlie Nash. In his honor, Guile wears his dog tags alongside his own. In a fairly emotional scene, Guile’s ending in Street Fighter II shows his family dissuading him from killing M. Bison. American soldier, loyal friend and family man, Guile is an inspiration (as long as we forget about his portrayal by JCVD).
This concludes the bottom half of our Top 10! Check back later in the week as we count down the 5 most patriotic characters in video games. Agree/Disagree with our list so far? Who do you think will make the Top 5? Let us know in the comments!
