There was a time when "hardcore" PC gamers looked down on the idea of using a gamepad to play PC games. The mouse and keyboard reigned supreme, especially during the golden age of first person shooters.

The truth is that joysticks and gamepads have a rich and storied history on PC. Genres like racing and flight simulation practically demand that they be playable.

The problem is that gamepads on PC weren’t really standardized for a long time. Without a good idea of what players would use, many developers simply didn’t bother developing gamepad support for their titles.
