MS 360 USB Dongle for Windows

[Daston]

Anyone here have the usb dongle that lets you connect your 360 controller to windows? Got a Playstation style logi tech controller and fed up of having the wire trailing around. Thought using one of these usb dongle thingys might be easier.

Anyone got any thoughts?

I am not to sure about the wireless ones, but the Xbox360 wired controllers work quite well in windows.

They have to be MS controllers if you use the MS dongle. The good thing is, the MS dongle for the PC also works with the XBox wireless wheel.

I got one cheap at gamestation a while ago, fun for a while, but to be honest I never really use it. Used it for Fallout 3 and the wheel with Liveforspeed, but in all honesty, My PC is more for CAD and the Xbox for gaming, so thats probably why. Nice thing about fallout 3 was all the GUI changed to accomodate the controller (onscreen prompts were for A,B,X,Y etc, rather than keyboard commands). Was impressed with the integration, though LiveForSpeed needed tweaking to get the wheel playing right.
