It's about what I expected for the support ticket.
I've checked the game and it seems that the Two Player option is only available if a controller is plugged in. The configuration can be changed from the main screen before the Two player option is selected. This might be a bug in the game, please contact the Developers
I'm sure a big portion of this is a number of developers assume you're going to use a 360 controller (
and a number of games are XBLA ports which makes sense). However I'm using a PS2 controller (
via USB adapter).
I'd consider using 360 controller(
s), but all the ones I have are
'wireless' because my
GF wanted wireless controllers (
and I'd have gone with some USBs). So yeah not playing using those and not going to buy some $30+
M$ gamepads when I got some that will work just fine.
Anyways, I've contacted the devs, we'll see what they say, who knows maybe they will to patch the game to fix this oversight.
