Xbox 360 Wired Controller for WINDOWS PC

This controller looks impeccable, although the green lights only appear momentarily when the PC turns on, so no flashy stuff when you're playing :D

Oh and if you're worried, it does work with the Xbox 360 aswell, this controller is a better purchase than the standard wired controller for the Xbox 360. So you get both worlds for the less the cost!


Best Controller Ever   October 10, 2006

The xbox 360 controller is by far the most comfortable and effective controller ever created, the analogue sticks are perfect making it easy to control any game even fps games with a gamepad. The only thing that lets the conroller down are the drivers, which are very poor. I have stopped using the default microsoft drivers and now use 3rd party XBCD drivers (google it) which offer a lot more control.

The poor drivers let the pad down a bit but its still the best pad available for the pc.

In order to get the most out of this you need the right drivers - if you google "XBCD 360" you get the correct drivers for this model (if you get just the standard xbcd drivers you can have a lot of problems).

The drivers eliminate the problems other people had (i.e. all buttons work independantly, both analogue sticks work separately, triggers can be set to analogue).

Glad I spent the extra cash to get something of decent quality, would recommend to anyone looking for a decent controller.

Having previously tried both a standard PC pad and an adapted PS2 pad, I can honestly say that this is the best controller I have used for the PC. The analogue triggers make it especially good for driving games.

It even works with the Xbox Live headset, which not only works as a mic in all games, but - if the app supports it - allows you to hear voice comms directly into your ear even if you are using speakers for main sound. The only downside is that you need to keep the controller nearby even if you are using keyboard and mouse.
