    Almost all games made now detect the Xbox 360 controller perfectly, but it depends on what you play like FPS shooters with mouse and keys and others with a controller, some gamers even use mouse and keys for everything.

    Google a site called good old games. A lot of the older ones are on there and very cheap and configured to work with the latest windows (hit and miss but mostly works without any fiddling around with files!)

    I use keyboard and mouse for first person shooters, and an xbox 360 pad for games like Tomb Raider, and driving games.

    Yes but some devs are lazy and think people are better off using a controller.

    Might want to look into emulators as well if you like some old school action (you can search for that one in google)

    As for controls, whatever you want. Mouse and Keyboard if you like that, or a controller. The 360 controller is perhaps the best joypad to use. You can also use steering wheels and flight sets if thats your thing as well. Pretty much anything you want.
