360 Wireless Controllers
Hey, I've heard that you could connect your 360 wireless controller to your PC. And all I wanna know is, how can you do that? I'm running a Windows Vista.

Re: 360 Wireless Controllers
You need a Wireless Gaming Receiver.

Man, I've tried to get that to work with my newer computer, but something weird keeps happening with the camera zoom and it makes the game unplayable (at least after the first few levels).Penguin wrote:Also played Star Wars Rogue Squadron 3d for fun xD

It's confusing to me how it wouldn't automatically turn on your 360. I guess you just sync it to the receiver and then re-sync it to your 360 later.

Re: 360 Wireless Controllers
You should be able to. When using controllers with the computer, you're just remapping mouse and keyboard functions to the controller.

Re: 360 Wireless Controllers
May I recommend a Logitech ChillStream instead? They feel just like a 360 controller, have a built-in fan to keep your hands cool, run off USB and cost just as much as that 360 receiver.
