So my gaming consoles consist of a Wii and my iPod, but I do have a fairly new computer. I am looking for a controller similar to the Xbox 360's. Any ideas?
Actually, you can hook an Xbox controller up to your PC. There's an adapter for it I think. Otherwise I think there's one built for the PC, or some older ones that were wired before the wireless ones were shipped with the console can hook up through USB.
Yup, and you can also buy wireless 360 controllers for Windows: http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/gaming/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=090 I assume it just comes with the receiver included.
I was under the assumption it would be the same as 360 wireless controllers, which require a reciever to use with Windows. Actually that page said it uses a USB port, so I think I'm right
Well the 360 ones are compatible with PC after you buy a receiver... the one on that link is just advertised as a Windows controller but I'm thinking it's the exact same thing.
