Product Description

Discover greater precision, comfort, and control. The Wireless Xbox 360 Controller for Windows delivers a consistent and universal gaming experience across both of Microsoft's gaming systems. Experience the ultimate gaming experience on Windows XP and Xbox 360.

The game is pretty good, but it took a long time to be shipped even though I did free 2day shipping it took over a weak and I was charged $3 for shipping, so I wouldn't go with the company that sent me the game.


I play alot of shooting and role playing games from windows. This controller save me the hassle of changing my settings on the keybroad to my liking. it's simple to use too. if you have vista you might don't have to install the software. i got lucky and didn't need too. you can also use this controller with your xbox as well. two things for the price of one, you can't beat that.


I got this controller today, and it's the best controller I've ever bought. The wireless lets me put my PC on my HDTV and play games from afar instead of being stuck with a short cable. It's very responsive and there is no delay. Although many people here reported having problems with conflicting wireless devices, I'm using this with a wireless Microsoft mouse and they have no conflicts (I'm also using the 1.1 drivers from Microsoft's website, not the drivers from the CD that came with it). Many games work great with this and the integrated support that's already in newer games like Crysis, Left 4 Dead, and GTA IV is just going to get better. It's extremely comfortable and it fits right in your hand. The combination of two shoulder triggers and two shoulder buttons is genius and it integrates with any game perfectly.

My only problem with this is that the only way to power it down is to let it turn itself off after a time of inactivity or taking out the battery. It would be nice if it powered off like a regular 360 controller hooked up to a 360, but it doesn't bug me too much.

Either way, this is a great controller, and if you want to go wireless, this is an excellent solution.


This product comes with an Official XBOX 360 Wireless Controller, Driver DVD, and a 5 foot long USB Receiver.

PROS: Many options with the Xbox 360 controller for controls
WIRELESS! It's every gamers dream to own the best controller on the market

CONS: Why five feet long for the USB receiver? the size of a USB Flash Drive is all I need (or anyone for that matter); My controller doesn't turn off, so I have to uninstall the battery back and clip it back in for the controller to stay off (I already tried push and hold the XBOX button down to turn it off and it didn't work)

A little bit more for your information, this controller does NOT have *OFFICIAL* drivers to work on mac, so you will have to look up third-party developers' MAC drivers for the xbox 360 controller (and they work too, trust me). Overall, I don't see why anyone would need a $100 controller to play their games. PS3 and XBOX 360 use controllers just like these (in terms of size) and deliver a fantastic experience.

You'd be doing yourself injustice to pass this controller up.


Installed on a 32-bit XP system. Have to use 3rd party software for some games, but otherwise works perfectly. Switches b/w xbox and pc. Battery life is dubious, but I picked up some Sanyo rechargeable here on Amz and they've taken away most of my headaches.

This thing is more solid than most el cheapo game pads I've used. Worth ponying up the extra $15+ to know that it can take some abuse.

Dongle is retarded, and I'm not entirely convinced that you can't just buy the dongle (~ $18 on amz) and use an existing xbox controller (if you have one), but don't quote me on that.

Have not tried in Vista or xp x64 yet.


This controller takes away the awkward feeling of playing on a keyboard and mouse by using the famous Xbox 360 controller! The controller is exactly the same as the wireless controller used for the 360 and utilizes a very small receiver that you can hide out of sight! My only con is that it wasn't compatible with COD4 out of the box, so I have to a use a game profiler like Pinnacle to play it.


Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows
Someone should have told be before I bought a Logitech wireless controller that it wouldn't work with most PC games. Playing Medal Of Honor Airborne was a pain. The forward\backward movement was reversed and I tried everything to get it to work it was driving me nuts!! In comes the Xbox 360 wireless controller for Windows. It works on this game and others that are capable of controller activity. It took about a half hour to get use to the controls, but one you do the game action is awesome. If you are a PC gamer you need to get one (or more) of these. You won't regret it.


OK... so I don't have a console, but I do have a decent computer with a good graphics card. Now I can play many of my favorite games without having to mash on a keyboard. Well worth the money. You can also use it with an Xbox 360 down the road if you feel the need. Communications seem to be very reliable and the drivers / setup was very easy.


Hello, I would not consider this unit "plug and play". I loaded the driver and tryed Bio shock and it didn't find the controller. I have a wireless mouse and as it turns out the usb port it's plugged in to has precedences over the controller I guess. I unpluged the mouse and the controller started to work on all games. I found simply shutting off the mouse works most of the time. I gave 4 stars becouse for $50 I feels kinda cheap.


Solo diré tres cosas acerca de este control:
1. Si estas cansado de los cables, cómpralo por que es excelente en cuanto a su diseño y calidad y si a eso le sumas la libertad que brinda es de lo mejor...
2. Su batería son AA, si no quieres pasarte la vida comprando baterías o cargando baterías para el control, no lo compres, quédate con la versión con cable, si optas por este asegúrate de que la baterías se encuentren full cargadas antes de una gran o importante partida.
3. Si compraras un control para la PC esta es la opción debido a su compatibilidad por defecto con todos los juegos que saldrán para la plataforma Windows.

¡Realmente recomendable!
