Fighting games, Racing games, Platform games, Darksiders 1 & 2, Assassin's Creed series, etc. For games like Assassin's Creed series is not really needed, but I find it better with controller, I react faster, same for Risk of Rain, and more others, in games like GTA IV, is better for driving and fighting, but not for shooting or moving camera.
Games that really need a controller are the bold text ones I highlighted, and also other games bad optimized for keyboard and mouse like Darksouls, Darksiders 1. You can also use both controller and keyboard/mouse in some games, depending what you're doing.

I didn't enjoy Red Faction: Guerrilla at all until I started using a controller. On foot, keyboard+mouse are fine, but the vehicles controlled terribly with a keyboard. I suppose that's usually true for most sandbox games, but something about the handling was just too much and completely ruined it. But with a controller, it was glorious!

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons would be brutal without a controller IMO.
Castle Crasher tooltips show up as xbox keys even without a controller plugged into the system, so I pretty much consider that a controller only game (not sure about BBT).
Dead Space is another horribad port, I didn't play it much but I couldn't continue without using a controller past the first few minutes.

Most indie platformers on Steam. They're perfect for game controller.

Go for Dark Souls or Dark Souls 2 (doesn't matter wich game you start), both of them are great enough for hundreds of hours. People consider the first one a better game (worst pc port ever seen, but there are mods to fix those problems), but the second one is better optimized for PC (60 fps).

Thanks for all your help guys, so far I'm thinking about starting with the Dark Souls games.

Hooray! I finally got a wireless Xbox 360 controller that'll work on my computer!
I'm talking about games that basically NEED a controller or else they're unplayable. So far, based off my sources (Who are actually some good friends of mine) I got...
-Dark Souls 1 and 2
-Metal Gear Rising
Any others?
