World At War for the PC suppose to support the Xbox 360 controller but it doesn't by default. The back of the box for the PC version says it supports Xbox 360 Controller For Windows. When people plug the controller in and try to use it on the game, it just doesn't work. I was frustrated with Xpadder and the other tiny software you use to make any game controller work with a PC game. They just don't work well, the controls gets screwy and it also makes your mouse cursor move eradically. Xpadder was retarded trying to get a PS3 controller to work. Only a few of the buttons worked in WAW. Everything else don't do anything. I was looking to buy the wireless receiver from Microsoft which can be use to connect the wireless 360 controllers to PC, but they are discontinued and can no longer be found at stores. My only option was to buy the wired 360 controller. I got one at Walmart, the back of the package says it works with Vista. I plugged it into my computer via USB, Windows 7 recognized it automatically and installed the driver. I started up COD: WAW on PC, as you know, the controller doesn't do anything from the get go.

Here's what you gotta do:

1. Go to WAW Options & Controls
2. Game Options
3. Enable Console - set to YES
4. Type ~ key, next to number 1
5. Type "exec default_controller.cfg" without the quotes, press Enter

The controller will not work in the Menus, start up a game to use it.

If you go into the Controls options, you'll even see Xbox 360 buttons and it's color as the option, the devs programmed the game to work with the controller. But they didn't enable it by default and say that they do not officially support game controllers. What's up with that?

The button configurations are already configured for the game, right trigger for shoot, left trigger for aim, left stick push for run, X for reload, ...etc.
