My son tried this. It does not work. There may be some usb drivers available that would make it work but we have never looked.

Yes, it should work if you have the correct PC receiver to go with the controller.

Very unlikely. Although I never tried this thing on Xbox 360, I do know that it requires a PC software (not just the driver) to make this thing actually work.

yes it can connect and charge though the PC but it will not play any PC games. it will only connect to your Xbox if you want a controller for PC games you must buy a wired controller. but it will charge perfectly fine on your PC when your not actively playing your Xbox

Buy the 360 for PC controller and it comes with the usb dongle. Can't use a regular 360 unit! Good news is that the range is awesome. I use Logitech's unifying receiver for my other peripherals and it barely works from 10 feet away. Not so with this dongle. Just get it.

This controller is PC and USB ready. It'll connect to any PC in a snap; no drivers or peripheral cables needed! The controller is a bit pricey, but very much worth it.

I don't believe so because this actually requires software for it to work even on a PC. Your best option is to look at aftermarket controllers with their own dongle. My son bought one and uses it on our PS3, I just can't remember the brand.

Yes it will just plug this cable into your controller and then plug it in your PC to update the cord and its drivers so it can be able to charge your controller on the PC and Xbox console you'll know it'll work once after it installs your the cord drivers to your PC the red light will come on on the cord. To play with the wireless controller on your PC while being plugged up just go to your device manager and scroll all the way at the bottom and select your controller properties and then select its wireless playback drivers for your PC to Xbox controller.

I use xbox 360 controller, you have to buy one controller with the computer usb receiver, but the second controller it can be just the the regular xbox 360 wireless controller

Yes, I just tested it by connecting the receiver base to a wall charger and connecting it to my computer with a 3.5m cord instead of via USB. There is a switch on the front of the base that says console<----->PC Gaming, make sure its switched to Console before powering it on otherwise it won't use the correct input you want.

I bought this product several months ago and tried it on my computer. The software is somewhat compatible but ultimately this controller is not meant for Windows PC. Your best bet would be to buy a brand-name Xbox controller from microsoft

I agree with Johnathan K. although I have not tried to connect it to a wired controller. I know that it does work with a wireless controller with a battery pack that is connected to the 360 and is charging. You can also try to Google your question.

It will charge through PC. In order to use the actual controller through the PC, you need the Microsoft adapter. I bought this item and the adapter; works great. Still cheaper than buying a wired usb controller, although those are good too.

Xbone controller will work on a PC without an adapter, just use a USB cable. This will not work with xbone controllers.

Only if it is connected to your computer. There are no USB ports in the controller itself.

Yes it will work. Dreamcast games work well with this controller on the pc.

As long as you have a USB 2.0 and you should be fine. Just when you go into the key bindings hit the button on the controller, I found it was as simple as that.
