The demo for Just Cause 2 was great with an xbox 360 controller on pc. First game where I was glad I had the controller and not a mouse/keyboard.

Any driving game if you don't have a wheel. All sports. Most fighting games. Any platformers like Prince of Persia (the old ones. New one's really not worth playing).

p.s. Mirror's Edge. A lot of people hated it but I love it, still fire it up every so often.

The TF2/Tribes like FPS "Global Agenda" is also designed to be played with a 360 controller.

It's a fun game, but I'm a PC purist that can not play an fps on a controller.

Mechwarrior 4.

But you'll need a gamepad with a lot of buttons.
I used a gamepad for turning, movement, and most targeting functions, and the mouse for fine aiming and weapons fire and zooming. Works great. Better than the keyboard.

Onimusha was ported to the PC, pretty fun and you need a gamepad for it.

Ninja Blade was descent considering there's no GoW on the PC.

I would think anything that isn't FPS would be fine, although there are some 3PS that would probably still be better with KBM.

GTA 4, (Driving ONLY, for racing etc).
Burnout Paradise
Dirt 2
Arma2, (after 2 hours of tweaking..)
Bad Company 2 Chopper Piloting (Took forever to find the 3rd party program that made it work decently). Forgot the name; I can check when I get home.
