It might be considered modding.

yeah, either plug your xbox 360 wired controller into the usb slot, or buy an adaptor off the internet for a couple of bucks, plus another couple shipping, and you can use your original xbox controller

I Just picked up a copy of Halo PC and a 360 controller after playing 1 and 2 on the xbox, however it doesn't feel the same, and I can't get the x button to both pick up weapons, reload, and action(work switchs/use vehicle). Microsoft will supposedly be updating the software for the controller and that might fix it but who knows.

That's because there's no aim assist in Halo PC. It was needed on Xbox to make up for the inherent lack of accuracy with joysticks but there's no need for it on the PC because the mouse and keyboard is far more suited for FPS.

neither. either make one yourself or just stick with keyboard and mouse. mouse is better for looking anyway, more control and you can move it faster... just something to keep in mind

I wan't speaking about the auto aim altogh I have noticed that as well. I was just really mentioning the problem with buttons (there being no difference between a press and a hold). Also if I press both triggers one will cancel out the other, so if I'm shoting I have to stop shooting for a split second to throw a grenade, on the xbox I could just hit both. But then again this is Halo for the pc not the xbox.
