Games What games work with this controller? I really like the Xbox 360 controller and like to play my computer games with it.

I don't have mine yet but from what I've read, most games will be compatible. Many newer games are even being made with this specific controller in mind so that helps.

Short answer: Yes. Long Answer: I just tested my Game Stop Brand Xbox 360 controller with usb converter on my Windows 7 64-bit PC, and it worked perfectly. I personally think the game is significantly easier to play with a keyboard and mouse, but yes, you are perfectly capable of playing with the controller. (Other operating systems may or may not work [I have no experience with Windows 8 nor previous versions]). If you have a different operating system, I recommend looking it up on google, or asking another person before you buy the game. P.S. If you need help setting up your controller, just let me know, or there may be tutorials online.

I don't know exactly because I have not played with it on the computer, but I know that wired controllers work with computers. It should just go right into the USB port and you can play away

I have seen people use xbox controllers on the PC. They port over nicely and are probably the best controllers to use if you have a 360 already.

Works with my wii. Any controller that works with the Gamecube should work with the Wii (same attachments/plugs)

In regards to steam, it is functional if the game supports generic controllers. Many steam games when they say controller support, they only mean XBOX 360 controller support. So it really depends on the game. For instance I played rogue legacy with a sega saturn adapter and SS controller, and it worked great. The game Fez however had a number of problems regsitering other controllers than an xbox 360 one.As far as not registering, I couldn't say. I am running x64 windows 7 which in terms of driver support is usually identical, and I had no problems just plugging it in and having it detected as USB Genesis controller or something like that under devices and printers.

On windows it acts as a normal game controller, so it should work with any game on PC that can use a controller.

Dont bother with game unless you got powerful computer with either Win Xp or Maybe 7. And I doubt it works with a controller. Dont know. Try a digital copy either way

I haven't tried it, but it is an XBox 360 controller. The directions say it is compatible with both XBox 360 and Windows. The only difference from this controller and a general XBox 360 controller is this one comes packaged with a Bluetooth receiver that plugs into your PC via a USB cable. You then just have to download the correct drivers for the controller.

Yea this controller is definitely a third party controller. To be honest I bought this because it was cheap but for some reason I kept getting shocked by the controller. Eventually it was unbearable and persistent to the point where I sent it back and just bought a microsoft controller. No complaints since then.

You might be able to play a few games but not too many. Minecraft isnt one of them. The controller does not have left or right bumps and the left and right sticks. Its mainly just for racing. I cant do EVERYTHING on froza 3. To fine tune my cars i have to use a regular controller. The racing wheel has GREAT response to racing games though. I was very impressed.

Yes actually. My friend had his xbox 360 and one controller and I put in mine and worked perfectly.

Only certain games use this accessory, and different games tell you to connect the controllers differently. Check the manual for the game you want to use it with for details. If you don't have the manual, ask in an online forum either one for video gaming in general, or one specific to that game.

You can play Skyrim on the PC with a Xbox 360 controller, just remember to plug it in the USB port. You need to have it connected before you try to play, and you might need to select an option within the game to allow you to use the controller as well. I'm not 100% sure on the last part, but I've seen people play it with a controller and it worked just fine.
