how do you shoot and use items?

Don't even bother using keyboard and mouse

Yeah the controls are the same regardless of what Xbox controller you have

Wait I never knew you could change the controls for this game

Finally a guide that's helpful

Gamepad: X - Look Behind
L2 - Brake/Drift, Tricks
R2 - Gas
A - Use Item/Horn

Strawberry, if you're using an Xbox controller the controls are identical to the Xbox 360 and PS3 ports.If you're using a PlayStation controller with this game, Steam will XInput wrap it so it works.
Left Stick/DPad - Steer
LT/L2- Brake/Drift/Reverse
RT/R2 - Accelerate
A/X - Items

By the way, if you're playing as a bike user such as Big, you can wheelie if you press up then down at the right time.

hey guy that was easy you guy hehehehe :]

je n'arrive pas à connecter ma manette comment faire ?

@Mitchino dude, these days every computer runs on a 64-bit CPU, and most of us are playing this game just fine.
