Xbox360 Accessories on your PC

[EvanAdams]

I just found this. It plugs into your pc and allows you to use your 360 controller, headset and racing stuff on your PC. I think it is pretty cool and makes me desire a 360 a little more for it.

I realize some may know of this but it is news to me.

The only question I have is how many controllers will it support. If it only supports one controller that wouldn't be too great since you figure tack on $20 dollars for each 360 controller you want, and don't forget you'll need 4 USB ports to use 4 controllers. Now if the receiver can support 4 controllers, I'd say things have a chance to become interesting in the PC market.

Yeah, but how many people have a video card as good a 360?

Not having to buy batteries is reason enough to keep the wired controller. I love mine.

Oh please, my wireless Logitech Controller lasts 50 hours straight with rumble on and over 100 hours with rumble off. And that's using the controller the entire time, not during sleep mode or whatever.

Wired controllers are so antiquated. =p

um, what point are you trying to make? If you have games for the PC that could make good use of any XBox360 accessory, then this is pretty cool (especially being a first party solution).

Great graphics alone doesn?t make fun games.
