Microsoft Xbox 360 Controller for Windows Reviews

Xbox 360/Games For Windows Controller This is basically an xbox 360 controller, no difference at all. I'm not going to focus on that, if you want that console experience on your gaming pc this is the answer. People playing shooting games on PC generally prefer the keyboard and mouse, but for things like driving ...  Read the complete review

I purchased this controller in order to play my computer games in a more traditional games console styled fashion. After looking around I decided to go with Microsoft's own gaming controller as I have used it many a time before and have always found it reliable. The controller itself feels very sturdy and well built, which is ...  Read the complete review

I was mainly a console gamer through my childhood and most of my adulthood. Having sold my PS2 and moving over to a PSP to avoid TV wars, the PC seemed like a perfect platform for gaming that was not limited by the processor of handheld gaming. However, many people moving from console to PC find teh use of a keyboard/mouse very ...  Read the complete review

This is a very nicely designed controller. It sits very nice in your hands and you have access to all the buttons on the controller. The buttons included are 'LT, RT, LB, RB, Y, B, A, X, Start, Select, Xbox Home, Two Analogues and a 4-way Dpad. All the face buttons are very easy to access for anyone with even the biggest of ...  Read the complete review

I picked this up because im mainly a console gamer, i bought myself fallout 3 on the pc to play in my spare time because its very addictive and lasts a long time. I was use to playing it on the xbox 360 so thought i would get one of these controllers so that i could just simply pick up and play instead of having to look around for ...  Read the complete review

If there's one thing I can praise about Microsoft's Xbox 360 without any reservations, it is their excellent joypad design. Picking up with the frankly terrible design of the original Xbox's controller, they have refined the basic design into a really, very well put together piece of kit. The wired version comes with a USB connection, ...  Read the complete review

I opted to purchase this controller for use on both my pc and xbox 360. This was intended as a second controller for my xbox 360, while allowing me to use it on my pc as well. I initially had the choice of purchasing a wireless controller and pc receiver or this wired controller. In my opinion, this was the better option as ...  Read the complete review

I bought a couple of these to use for PC gaming after having little luck getting my wireless controllers to work using the Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver For Windows (which seems a poorly supported product). Installation involved just a driver install and then plugging the controllers in via USB, very quick and ...  Read the complete review

I bought this product for my PC mainly for flight simulation type games and so that I could practise a bit more using a controller when all of my mates have games consoles and not PCs. In terms of build quality and ergonomics it is flawless in design but as a PC gamer it serves no purpose in any game bar flight sims and ...  Read the complete review

I bought this initially for gaming in Windows and whilst I must admit that the unit is very solidly built and very comfortable to hold, it falls well short in this department. Put frankly I've not found a Windows game yet that is better controlled using this controller over a standard Windows keyboard and mouse setup. From a ...  Read the complete review

Refinement: The Xbox 360 wired controller is a refined version of the original Xbox controller S. Taking design hints from the Gamecube controller it was smaller and more ergonomic than the original black brick that was the original design, making it more appealing to a Japanese audience, the pad was so well received they ...  Read the complete review

I sold my Xbox 360 for the love of PC games and that the majority of Xbox 360 games that are worth anything come out for the PC in either a port (Clive Barker's Clive Barker's Jericho... By Clive barker) or a total conversion (Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter thats right xboxers... it's a good first person shooter on the pc). Along with ...  Read the complete review

I had the opportunity to try a little this pad on my pc with windows xp, I think it's a good pad but nothing exceptional but let's start gradually. * Installation The installation was very easy, I downloaded the driver from the net, connected the pad to a usb port and windows did the rest, simple and ...  Read the complete review
