Default PC Games that use a Gamepad

Does anyone have any recommendations for PC games that use a gamepad? Other then the standard sports games, I'm looking for a good game that I can stick my feet up, lean back and chill out with using my gamepad.

I spent 40$ on the thing and have yet to find a decent game to use it with beyond NHL07 and Winning Eleven.

Thanks!

Any game that uses joysticks will also be able to be played with a gamepad.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance!!! Seriously, this game is amazing, even better with friends. Awesome modern beat-em-up with rpg and puzzle elements and lots of really fun things. There's a part where you are fighting arcade and you get stuck in an arcade machine and have to play Pitfall from like 1981...but as as Marvel superhero.

Thanks!
haha, that is the exact same as me except add in Madden 2007. I think the amount of use I put into it for those 3 games makes it worth the investment.

any racing games you can use a gamepad instead of steering wheel. gamepad is much better than a keyboard. Racing games sports games and maybe flight simulators are the only time I would use a gamepad. rest of the timt it's good ol keyboard and mouse.

I seem to have the same problem myself, recently sold of the old PS2 and have yet to get another next generation console system. NHL 07 is about the only game Ive used my pad with on PC, most are mouse and keyboard but still find plenty of good ones. Ill have to check that Marvel Ultimate Alliance out, kinda going through withdrawal not using a a game pad much.
